Series begin tonight. Yanks already named their starters for the 1st 4 games. Houston only named the first 2

Game 1- Masahiro Tanaka vs Dallas Keuchel
Game 2- Luis Severino vs Justin Verlander

really looking forward to both LC series even though the Cubs and Yankees are playing

if it gets down to both of those teams in the WS, I think I might need therapy

Didn't I hear that Tanaka's been a bit crap on the road this year?

6.48 in 15 road starts this year.

On the flip side, Keuchel is a douche.

Yep he's been awful. It shows how little confidence they have in Sonny. Only good thing is starting Tanaka in game 1 sets him up for 2 starts with one of them being at home.

Yeah Sonny has fallen off. Big name at trade deadline can't even be trusted in playoffs.

Tanaka has the stuff to really get that elite offense in rut early. So I think it's worth the home/road risk

The way yanks win this series , girardi mesmerizes the Astros with his bonehead moves! Hey, it worked in cleveland ..

In fairness, I see he finally is waking up in putting holiday back in as DH...

Go yanks

I think this series is going to a lot fun to watch (other than when they show highlights of the Yankees getting past the Tribe).


I'm curious to see if Judge's bat is still asleep. If so, the Yanks could be in trouble.

I like how Joe Buck misses the whole season and the division series and just gets to show up for the best time of year. His colleagues must hate him.

At least he won't be announcing Packers games for a while.

On the flip side, Keuchel is a douche.

Over the last few years we've had many a douche players, but I've never heard anybody say Keuchel is one before.
