ALCS: Yankees vs Astros (Non-Yankees Fan Version)

Ok, then let me rephrase. In games 3 and 5 of the ALDS and in the first two games of this series, the Yankees' pitching has shown the ability to give its team a chance to win in the biggest of spots. If you take the OPS+ of the Yankees' position players and compare it to the Red Sox, out of those 8 spots, the Yankees are so far ahead of the Red Sox they essentially create a ninth player with a +132 OPS+.
SSS or not, what we've seen in the last week is reason for Red Sox to be very concerned in a way that a change in manager will not fix.
Seeing how many pitches Giles threw yesterday and how long he's staying with Verlander makes me think the doesn't trust a lot of guys in the bullpen right now.
Verlander was spectacular.
You want see many performances against a good offense as good as that.

That's an incredible effort. Now if these stiffs that couldn't miss a pitch against our best pitchers could scratch out a run.
This isn't worth getting into with you, because I said nothing about the big picture. Yeah, the Yankees are good, and their offense has been shit for two games.
However, I do think that your critique of Farrell's face had some truth to it.
That Farrell has Dopey face is a point on which all reasonable people can surely agree.
Although Farrell doesn't have quite the Jaw he used to, it's not quite fair to say that he has resting dope face. It takes Sean O'Sullivan to fully slacken the Jaw.
Every time I see a crowd shot at this game, I wonder if the guy who came up with those hideous Astor Hawaiian shirts had a brother who worked for the Canucks in the late 1970's.......
LOL. Sox have been thrown out on that play all year. Props to Altuve making it in. Houston Strong.
