F the Houston Astros
This is what I think too. We have won a lot of games but did not play well but made key plays. Cole had a good first half but has looked bad for a while. Not a good recipe for postseason. Heard on radio he looks like he is having lower body issues perhaps knee injury and can't find a a consistent rhythm / throwing motion.
Yes we are going to need better pitching. Our 2 "aces" although Cole has proven this in the past and Yu has more talent...they both failed us. Not sure I would pull the plug though. Perez has talent but has not delivered consistently. Dutch can not be the same Dutch. So yeah we will be SP shopping and likely via trade. BUT.......
The series is not over and maybe we can get hot although we sure aren't today. All those men left on base. Sheesh
I think we will find out after the Rangers season comes to a close here soon, that Cole has had an injury he has tried to pitch through for 2 months
