The Grill gets fired up for 4 against the *'s: HOU @ TEX 4/25-28

[saddles]

Theses two guys in Frisco have been hot. Actually, Ornelas has been on fire.

 

[Kelleyman]

This base running did not work either

So close! Moore one pitch from franchise first

2022 mock Draft: Full first round

Some say Draft season commences when the amateur year gets underway in late winter/early spring. Others think that the new that rankings come out, like the Draft Top 150 we dropped earlier this week, are the crocuses of the season. But for Jim Callis and myself, in many ways things

3. Rangers: Elijah Green, OF, IMG Academy, Fla. (No. 2)
Yes, they went the college arm route last year with Jack Leiter, but he arguably was the best choice at No. 2 and there definitely isn’t an arm to take here, so I’m going with chalk and Green’s five-tool potential.

He has been a nice surprise so far.

Personally I would want Kevin Parada

How do you feel about Daniel Susac?

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

He has been a nice surprise so far.

Got his auto at FanFest his first go-round with us. Very personable guy, really enjoy seeing him perform well.

This series turned south in a hurry. Split would be nice but not likely I’d say.

it's been pretty even. run differential is only +1 for HOU.

 

[Kelleyman]

Obviously more talent this year. They have to learn how to win. Hope Woody can lead that charge

Please alert me if I am in the dark. Other than Bartlow who doe Woody consider his winning pieces
7th 8th and 9th
Also the two inning long man if not starting should be Burke but it seems like he has Allard slotted.
Maybe waiting for the IL to clear.

Seems pretty random to me. Maybe Bush is slotted in the 8th now. Thoughts?

I honestly don't think Woody has anyone "slotted" anywhere. I can never tell a rhyme or reason why he sets lineups or RP sequencing the way he does. His approach changes from day to day, and it drives me nuts.

I’m liking Matt Moore out of the pen
