Ryan Zimmerman on what to expect from Max Scherzer tonight: "I assume you'll see vintage Mad Max out there. He'll be amped up. Huffing and puffing."
AJ Hinch talks about Houston's pitching plan for Game 7, saying everyone except Justin Verlander will be available tonight and that Gerrit Cole is prepared to pitch if needed.
AJ Hinch on Anthony Rendon: "He's one of the most impressive superstars in our game. But I hope he goes 0-for-4. And then gets a big contract in the offseason."

Jose Altuve talks about what winning a second World Series in three years would mean to the Astros.
Jose Altuve on Alex Bregman: "He should be the MVP this season and he's going to be the MVP tonight."
When I asked a Nationals fan at my hotel today why he came to Houston, his reply was simply "It's Game 7, brother." But a lot of Astros fans seem more frustrated that it didn't end in six than excited for tonight. "Houston is depressed," one Astros fan told me this afternoon.
