Houston Astros TV analyst reveals World Series predictions and which player should host SNL
Houston Astros won Game 1 of the American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees. Geoff Blum is a color analyst for the team. He is frustrated with the way he's been replaced by network announcers during the post-season.
Blum believes the Houston Astros have a good chance of winning the World Series this year. He would like to have more left-handed power bats on the bench. If the team wanted to get better in center field at the trade deadline, they would have done it. If they go as far as they think they will, the pitching staff may go down as one of the best in Astros history.
SportsMap asks if baseball needs the Dodgers and Yankees in the World Series to get a rating.
Geoff Blum is a TV analyst for the Houston Astros. He thinks that baseball's playoffs are great and that there are too many clubhouse celebrations in the game. He also thinks it's great for baseball to show its parity.
Houston Astros are in their sixth straight American League Championship Series. They have won only one World Series during that stretch. SportsMap asks Blum if it's accurate to call the current Houston Astros a dynasty. If they don't win the World Cup, it will be a legacy for decades. Blumm thinks it is a credit to the organization and the players. He also thinks that the owner realizes he has to spend a little bit to get the personnel to win championships.
Blum started his broadcast career with the Houston Astros in 2013. He understands what it's like to call games for a team that loses a hundred games. Broadcasters from other teams tell him that the team is on a great run.
Todd, Julia and Blum broadcast the entire Astros regular season on AT&T SportsNet. They are frustrated that they are not able to broadcast post-season games. After the Astros won the World Series in 2017, George Springer, Jose Altuve and Alex Bregman went on Saturday Night Live for a skit.
