Figured I would go ahead and get this started...

I have the Astros winning this series in 4 and not celebrating in Houston...

Verlander will start game 1...
Keuchel will start game 2...
Peacock will start game 3...
Game 4 is a toss up to me...bold prediction is Morton...safe pick is Verlander on limited rest...

McCullers goes to the pen to strengthen that taxed bullpen...could become our Andrew Miller from last year...McCullers/Musgrove/Harris/Devenski/Giles will be the arms you see the most...

We are going to face Chris Sale in game one, a very very good pitcher, front runner for Cy Young award along with Kluber (Indians)...but he has never pitched in the post season (because he played for a dreadful White Sox team before the Red Sox)...

BoSox lineup is strong...but we are better top to bottom (almost 900 runs scored on the year?!?!?!)

Positional Lineup Game 1 guess...

RF - Reddick
CF - Springer
LF - Gonzalez
3B - Bregman
SS - Correa
2B - Altuve
1B - Gurriel
C - McCann
DH - Gattis

First pinch hitter
Vs Right Hand - Beltran
Vs. Left Hand - Maybin

First pinch runner - Maybin (near the tops in the AL in steals)
