Astros in for a 4 game weekend set - June 7-10

[saddles]

At least Martin Perez should be fresh in 2019.

Fly to CF moves runner to 3B. DDJ arm did come into play. And if endeup up hurting them with the Hinch assisted balk

And this is a good thing? Seriously?......I know we hope so, but as of now, the jury is out if he is a #3/4 starter.

Hinch assisted balk

And Hinch was correct......give credit where due.

 

[Kelleyman]

Sorry, but-as-fucking-if this is what his rep is about on 10 June. Com'on now?

Not sure what you are communicating but he rode the pine. But he struck out again to end the game

 

[Kelleyman]

We can being up 2 guys and still have room tor another guy like Moore.

Are you now trolling this club? No arguemeent that Moore serves pitches up. Never regained control

Why do you ask that? We will have more pitching openings next year than this year. Facing facts is not trolling. If they saw fit to sign Moore this year then surely a guy like him could find a spot here next year when there are more openings.

He is the only warm body coming back.

Why? Because your statement is an exaggeration.

2019 projected staff first draft

1. Minor
2 Perez
3 Fister
4 Herandez
5. Pick up via trade this midseason or from minor league depth some of which are already on 40 man

Will agree we are not trying to add elite pitching via FA. Just not thinking we are going to go after fluff

They are not going to rush Hernandez. Fister is a free agent after this season. Minor is a relief pitcher out of position and if left in a rotation could very well be next year's version of Moore.

Look up Derek Holland today

1.Hernandez-- disagree. He is on roster and if ready will be used
2. Fister has option which they will pick up
3 Minor came here to start and Rangers will accommodate

 

[DT LUNA]

Just a positive thought. Considering who we played with the best rotation in MLB, Astros did not have an easy time beating a make-shift team.

Whether we agree or not all I am saying is I have a reason to believe that we will once again have another very bad starter in the rotation next year. I am not simply looking to stir up trouble or get anyone riled up.

Rangers Reaction: Is Choo playing his way onto the trading block?

I hope so. He is sporting an .800+ OPS.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Roogie sure has been involved in a lot of the scoring recently, it seems.

His power game is still non existent tho.

They’re paying him to be 25-30 HR guy.

The power will come. Gotta think he’s trying to get his approach straightened out.

So, Hernandez is another exception to the idea of not rushing guys any more? The good pitchers they rushed, but the others aren't rushed?

The Rangers have taken a novel approach to the pitching emptiness in their farm system -- will it pay off?

It is not always cookie cutter
