Series Thread: Colby, Rangers travel down to play Angels 9/9-9/11

Yep second walk of the game and the slider was not hitting the mark. That was the sign to yank him. Plus first MLB game back and highest pitch count of his rehab starts.

the latter is why I thought he should have been gone after the walk, then a long AB vs Simmons and he just didnt have enough

Looking forward to watching Houston/cubs ...pats/cardinals tonight . What a great day

Good eye Joey!

 

[DT LUNA]

That was a quality DP

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Not sure what Profar was doing on that DP.

 

[Duane1952]

Nice scoop by Mitch.

 

[DT LUNA]

I'm trying to like you Gomez but that didn't win ya any points

 

[Nightcrawler]

15 out of the last 18 games are in the state of Texas. I like our chances to get home field or at least start the playoffs at home.

 

[Bmurph]

Should wear Tanner out fairly quickly with this many appearances if this pace keeps up

Agree. Stealing 2nd would have been great but wait until the guy makes a move to the plate.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Scheppers is looking much better

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Ump wanted to go home.

 

[Bmurph]

another shit called 3rd strike to end a game, in a 1 run game. Fuck you blue

Good point but Tanner has not been throwing many pitches.

Ok we did not win. BUT:

Colby did well against a tough line up and got out the middle of the order well. An excellent 86 pitch final rehab start. Now wait to see how he feels tomorrow.

Alvarez and Scheppers did their job and saved arms.

And Joey Gallo drew a walk!

 

[Duane1952]

Let Scheppers pitch the 7th, Bush the 8th and Dyson the 9th. Don't want to see Diekman for awhile.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

I saw Giles reaction after his save yesterday and thought that should fire the Cubs up tonight and so far it has. His reaction was ridiculous.

Schepp stuff was running hard and good velo. Had a breaking pitch too. Looked really good against tough bats. That is encouraging

He looked good in the minors so I had some hope for him, but you just never know until he does it again up here like he has been.
