Series Thread: Rangers at Mariners Labor Day edition 9/5-9/8

Hate a four game series away but it's stretch drive time. Gotta take em. Don't let up on the pedal now. 3 of 4.

Having a 3:10 game time today, CT, certainly isn't doing us any favors.

Heard this from Fraley today, "I expect the Rangers will move Desmond into the LO role shortly."

I did quote my source, so don't shoot the messenger if you totally disagree.

I think today's gonna be a great game. I expect both Hamels and Hernandez to bring their best today. Could go either way. Probably come down to which bullpen closes things out the best.

I hate to see this kid go. Best wishes to him.

Stinks based on what we've gotten out of JJ so far. Cordell is a probably gonna be really good for the Brewers

Sure wish Choo was available down the stretch

Sure thought we would hang on to him to be our cf in the future.

But we got Jeffress in the deal. Oh well.

Which for the moment is zero plus the "unknown"

Unfortunately, this guy is a true "basket-case" even in today's world.....We're not talking about the "devil weed" here. Little worse than this, I suspect anyway.

But then again, how many "can't miss prospects" have been traded, only to find out, "they're the one's who missed?"......And I do remember the Gonzalez trade. ha

Great game....As in, close/well played?

King and Hamels will bring their best today........As in both will get quality starts?

Actually, now that I read this post again, you've covered damn near everything. ha ha ha

Happy Labor Day everyone.

Be good Cole. Match Hernandez pitch per pitch.

 

[Bmurph]

Long AB to walk the LO guy Cole

 

[DT LUNA]

A 9 pitch walk.....not good

 

[Bmurph]

Happy Labor Day everyone.

Same to you DG
