Essential elements if the Astros are to win the World Series in 2022.
The Fall Classic this year pits a pair of clubs that could not be more different. The Astros were a consistently good team that only seemed to get better as the season moved along with some of the most dominant pitching in team history, winning the AL West by 16 games. The Phillies survived the firing of their manager 50 games into the season and barely squeaked into the postseason as a Wild Card team, but caught fire in the last portion of the season which has continued into the playoffs.
The Astros will at least have the benefit of hindsight this time around, but it will take more than that to beat the very hot and very talented Phillies who, despite their record, are a much better team than their regular season finish would indicate.We've heard plenty about the depth and talent of the Astros pitching staff this season and it's all deserved.
It's also worth noting that the drop off in pitching after Nola and Wheeler is precipitous. Getting through their aces is critical to a World Series win.Avoid the big inning. Additionally, while the Astros hitters strike out less and walk more than virtually any team in baseball, the Phillies are middle of the back in both. They are a team that can be vulnerable if you can keep them from the big hit. That is easier said than done, particularly with Bryce Harper in their lineup. But, it will be critical for the Astros to limit the damage against the Phillies and keep them from the big innings that have fueled their ascension this postseason.
