Series Thread: Hot 'Stros to cool their heels in Arlington 6/6 to 6/9

The likelihood of a split is high. I swear Rooster fills out the line up card like he is running a damn little league squad.

I say take no chances with Darvish. Better to miss one start now than a whole lot of time later. Post TJ starting pitchers generally need about 12-15 major league starts (sometimes even longer) to return to pre-injury endurance, strength, and overall effectiveness. Be patient with Yu. Need him rolling in September and October, not so much June.

What lineup would you like to see today?

Ummm, with Beltre hurt the only bench option is Hoying, you're reaching this time

 

[Nightcrawler]

There's gotta be a way to avoid putting Mitch and Fielder on the card at the same time

Hoying is about all today

Not a reasonable one right now, no. If Beltre is OK, when Choo comes back, then possibly.

Your bench is Hoying and Wilson today, who needs to be available in case something happens to Holyday, so its a bench of one today

Don't like day games. To many Hoopmen working.

Be on your game Teen

I know this goes completely against your mindset, but to be even "semi-fair" to Banister, his options on the short run are limited.

Not me, just got back from the market and got my game face on. ha

Good. Somebody has to keep up the hoop image

Struck out Altuve on an 8 pitch at bat. Not bad. Springer grounded out.

Altuve, Springer, and Correa have been in the line up all 4 games against us.

So?

 

[PhantomWarrior]

Altuve, Springer, and Correa have been in the line up all 4 games against us.

And all of the three above may just be on the ASG AL starting line up too.

OK, so what's your point?

Let's put Mitch and Fielder on the bench today just to please you. Now, who takes their places?

Now that's a well thought out reply since you're the one making so much noise about Banister.

 

[Xx srs bsns xX]

So I wonder who lost their 40 man spot.

I'd put money on one of these 3:

Claudio
Faulkner
Klein

Though Wilhelmsen should be watching his back for Kela/Scheppers.
