Fielder was kinda short with the reporters after the game. Said the two days off didn't help. Not too happy with that really.
Sounds like a team guy. Hope Banister keeps doing it like he is right now swapping Fielder and Moreland. And then when Choo gets back he can sit and sulk all he wants.

Seattle lost so now we are up by 4. In fact everyone lost in the AL West except your Texas Rangers.

Ken Giles, after the game: "we're going to go out there tomorrow and put them to the ground."

Big talk, coming from a guy with an ERA close to 6 who was supposed to be the Astros answer at closer and the guy who just blew the game for them tonight.

Yeah, go put them to the ground tomorrow like you did all previous 7 times this season. Seriously, what kind of knucklehead talks smack about a team that has beaten his team all 7 times this season and 11 in a row at their park?

Giles can talk cheap. He doesn't bat and won't be on the base path trying to break up a Roogie DP. His talk is cheap.

He also said they have a more talented team than Texas and shouldn't be losing these kinds of games. Cry harder Giles. You got beat on your best pitch. Take that shit like a man and quit whining.
If Giles plunks Roogie I think the plan should be for Fielder to throw the punches this time.

Choo should take his time getting back. He didn't even make it through the first game on his first come back attempt. I like how we handled Darvish, he was actually ready. What kind of effect do you guys think Choo will have on the order? Is profar still lead off?

Profar has been a little powder keg...They cannot fuck with that for now.

He needs to get the fuck over it or do something about it.

Good I hope he gets pissed off and proves something
Wanna know what pissed off is? When my internet service was down all night and I missed you guys hollering and going nuts when Roogie drove the ball to the wall and Rasmus in all his glory miss played the ball. That is pissed off Ranger style.

Choo was ready last time and they did take their time, just bad luck

We should at least take three of four and I've got my eye on four.

When have you ever known the Crawler to be happy? He's probably worried about us losing to the A's now.

I feel we were fortunate to have gotten a win last night. I'll take it of course, but Colby wasn't on top of his game, and our defense....well, saying it wasn't a good night for us with the leather would be an understatement. Yet here we are in the win column.

Usually only good teams can pull this off.

Was about to say, to win championships you have to win games you shouldn't.
