Series Thread: Rangers Host the Astros For Four Games May 15-18

I read that his bat speed has fallen off. If that is true, why not go to a lighter bat. Looks like he doesn’t want to make any adjustments.

That would be a good experiment. He may be burnt out from playing so many games every season. Given that if you sit him too much he may go south even quicker.

That's a damn good Stat line. Hope he is a future Rangers starter

2-0 after 6. Sluggish bats.

I would get Milner out of there

He was pitching behind in the count to almost every batter.

Now Armstrong doing the same thing

 

[Duane1952]

Now the bullpen can’t throw strikes.

 

[Duane1952]

Yea Bochy bring in Armstrong 3 days in a row.

Why did Bochy keep Armstrong out there. When a pitcher doesn't have it they usually never find it.

Yep came back to bite us.

Game over with Abreu and Hader in the pen.

He was getting behind in the counts with all the batters.

 

[DTLUNA]

Bochy???????????????????????????????????

It sucks for Nate who deserved the win

I was concerned about this since Eovaldi wasn't being efficient with his pitches so I figured he wouldn't make it to the 7th.
