Come on it’s game 1. You want a high performing Verlander to win this Series. Yes the Astros have a great bullpen and part of that is because of how deep their starters go. You don’t pull the Cy Young winner after one bad inning and three great ones even with his WS struggles. The Phil’s kept their starter in after a worse start and look how it worked out.
Game 7 maybe that’s a different story. My only criticism is that I’m putting in Stanek before Garcia.
