Series Thread: Rangers vs Astros 7/7-7/9

[DT LUNA]

I am not a Wash supporter, but I don't know how this season could be his fault the roster has been made up of fill-ins since the start. Now many more than the beginning but even then the rotation was Yu, Perez and guys back from major injuries or guys that had performed poorly with other teams trying to prove they could come back and pitch effectively again.

I don't blame Wash for Hanson, Saunders, Rosales, JPA, Murphy and some of the others I probably forgot. They were let go from other clubs because they hadn't performed, were these the only options for JD, maybe considering the rash of injuries?

Well put Murph

Did anyone read Galloway's article on JD?

There's some things I disagree with, but he also makes a few valid points. I also wanted to add a starter (I said Santana at the time) and a bat (Cruz or Morales) before the year started.

Yeah, a certain amount of blame goes JDs way. Especially on that rotation as you say. The offense will get healthier but he's gotta put forth a better rotation.

Four straight singles. Gonna be a long hot night.

Not so sure now, DT. They must have tuned in and just tuned out.

Howdy, Les

 

[Duane1952]

I see we are off to a good start.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

This one's about to be over...at least the Astros have been hot....oh wait, they've lost 7 in a row.

 

[Justinkm83]

I wish we could have an inning where we hit the ball off the end of the bat 3 times in a row for a hit.

 

[DT LUNA]

Not so sure now, DT. They must have tuned in and just tuned out.

Howdy, Les

Yeah, Howdy Les glad you made it.

 

[darrylgann]

Amazing!

 

[Justinkm83]

Well there goes this one.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

This one's about to be over...at least the Astros have been hot....oh wait, they've lost 7 in a row.

Well now it's over...

 

[Duane1952]

Nice play Odor.

 

[Justinkm83]

Mikolas has some good stuff. I wonder if he's tipping his sinker because I find it hard to believe that they are squaring up a 95 MPH sinker this much.

 

[darrylgann]

Great play Odor, but Leonys could have gotten it and made the play. Now, why bother.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

My God, we aren't even competitive any more...
