Why didn’t they just go with the generic “we’re looking into this situation further before commenting” line instead of attacking the report? That’s just terrible PR in general.

Slateman Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Despite being up 2-0, I really think tonight is crucial for the Nationals. Historically, Grienke owns the Nationals. I don't have a lot of faith in Corbin against the Astros and if you give them life here and let them go back to Houston, this thing is probably slipping through the Nats fingers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historically, Grienke owns the Nationals. I don't have a lot of faith in Corbin against the Astros and if you give them life here and let them go back to Houston, this thing is probably slipping through the Nats fingers. MLB: We can put some numbers to the Astros' chances. FanGraphs' postseason odds – which are powered by the ZiPS projection system -- estimate how likely each team is to win the World Series, and in how many games, based on game-by-game breakdowns of the pitching matchups, offenses and home-field advantage. Here's how the Astros' comeback chances break down: Astros win World Series: 25.7% Nationals win World Series: 74.3% Astros win in 6: 7.8% Astros win in 7: 17.9% Nationals win in 4: 22.7% Nationals win in 5: 24.2% Nationals win in 6: 17.2% Nationals win in 7: 10.2% After dropping Games 1 and 2 at Minute Maid Park, the Astros are projected with a slightly better than one-in-four chance of winning their second title in three seasons.

This is the most stereotypical fan post when you're up 2-0. Everything has gone perfectly so far, but this thing is probably slipping away unless you win tonight.

You can look them up on the Fangraphs playoff odds page by just changing the date. 72% Houston, 28% Nattitude Which is more drastic than I would have guessed. Thought it'd be closer to 60/40. Fangraphs love the Astros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Corbin vs a bullpen game for the Astros. At home. That's the game you should feel the best about, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
