Series Thread: Rangers Travel to St. Petersburg for the Best of Three Wild Card Series with the Rays October 3-5

[DT LUNA]

Left 1 RISP 1st inning

 

[saddles]

A couple of really hard hit balls that inning. One went for an out. That may bode well for the offense.

I just don't get Grossman over Garver.

You wonder if something is up with Garver otherwise I am with you on this.

I’m liking the Eovaldi I’m seeing so far and the bats are hitting the ball well…I’m seeing positive signs through 2.

 

[gregrey972]

I really want to see “Mr Full Count” as a lead off hitter one day. Maybe next season, maybe the next one after that, but soon.

 

[gregrey972]

Some hard luck two innings in a row…maybe karma for yesterday’s luck?

 

[Duane1952]

Thanks for nothing Grossman. 0-6 in the series. Shouldn’t even be in the lineup. Great job Bochy.

 

[saddles]

That intentional walk to Seager is on Bochy for hitting Grossman behind Seager. The man is costing us chances to win with the lineups he puts out there.

Why the hell is Grossman in the 3 hole?
.633 ops vs RHP. 930 vs LHP

He was brought in to be a platoon piece.
Playoff game vs a RHP and he’s in the 3 hole?

Gah..

Tough to defend…Garver is a RH hitter…who is the lefty we would want to see? Jankowski?

Garver has a .845 OPS vs RHP with like 300 PA.
Grossman .630

All star vs DFA type difference

 

[Duane1952]

Garcia bomb.

 

[saddles]

Looks like Eovaldi is going to give us 6 or 7.

 

[saddles]

Way to go, Josh!

 

[saddles]

Great going, Evan. HR.

Some clutch hits.

 

[Duane1952]

Jung and Carter showing up this inning.

 

[gregrey972]

Holy shit Carter y’all!!!

 

[Duane1952]

Way to go, Josh!

He’s 2-2 today. Now just need to get Grossman out of the lineup.
