Series Thread: Let's take 3 from Buck's Boys.....8/28-30

[DT LUNA]

Haven't been on the last two games. I know you'll want me to stay gone since we won the last two.

Wow! One 10 K game all year and we get 2 in the last 3 games.

I like Rosie personally and think he was prototype bench player hustle. Flexible team player best attitude on team. But .....as I said it frees up a spot. One is better than both. Alberto does short and second and third better and we have plenty of first baseman. Alberto has options thus that flexibility. More team control. Should I go on?

Tough business baseball decision but the correct one IMO. We have other infielders on the way up as well.

Perhaps time to rethink? Ha

I gave ya he's better, albeit not a huge difference, at SS/2nd/3rd defensively. How about clutch hitting (oh, that's right, there's no book on Alberto)? What about power?

Options, at this point in time - meaning we're trying to make the playoffs - should not be a factor. It's today. Play for today from here on in.

We have other INF on the way?.....again.....it's today.....we're sprinting in a marathon race.

We're not going to get on the same page here buddy.....But it's all good.

It's Mr Holland's night!

11K's. Wow. What a stud.

I mean a 10 and 11 k game in 2 of the last 3

Dominant performance by Dutch

So what are you doing here now? ha ha ha ha ha

You know I enjoy and look forward to seeing ya here.....ALWAYS

I never thought Holland would come back out for the 9th......Was that just me? Damn, the boy threw 116.

All good. Dutch was awesome. BTW. I am a big Rosie fan. It hurt to see him let go

 

[Nightcrawler]

Doesn't matter . We will put them away heads up.

It does matter. Don't you want the Astros to be in striking distance when they come to town?

 

[Kelleyman]

It's a sweep!!!

 

[WastinSomeTime]

It was a good time to face the Orioles and thank you Indians for sweeping my most hated team.

 

[RevSader]

A healthy Holland and Darvish would have changed this season...hell of a start Derek.

 

[donaldson79]

It's a sweep!!!

Gosh.....who started this wonderful, butt-kicking tread anyway? ha ha

 

[Kelleyman]

Once again a great performance. Makes Banny look good
Tolleson rested

 

[romeo212000]

Entire bullpen rested.

We should not use him today at all IMO. Regardless of circumstance.

Great post.......I think we're FINALLY on the same page.......

 

[Nightcrawler]

Up next is west coast week. I'm glad that we're finally getting a few breaks on the pitching match ups. It seems like we've been seeing every teams ace lately ( except this series). The Orioles didn't throw Wei Yen Chen against us, the Padres won't throw Shields at us, and I think we miss King Felix in Seattle.

I'm glad Saturday is a late game because of college football starting. I'll be able to watch both.

 

[saddles]

I am glad to see that our Ace is back to being healthy and his old self again. Great game Derek!

Big 10-4 on this one.....I absolutely love college football.....and of course our RANGERS

Proud of Dutch and Hamels performance. But today it is all about Dutch. Flat out awesome
