From Shawn McFarland:

Bruce Bochy classified Josh Smith as day to day. Said they’ll huddle tonight and figure out if they need to make a roster move or not.

After Smith got hit in the face that time, I believe he only missed a day, if even that. He will be ready soon i think..

If we can just get Robert Garcia pitching better, this bullpen would be quite a force.

So Acker is in relief now, as well. I guess the Rangers have decided they only want veteran reclamation projects to serve as starting pitching depth on this team. I tell you, I just don't get their logic.

They didn't have an excellent velo on Carter's first inning line out. His third inning single was hit a little over 106 mph. Later he had a ground out that he hit that hard, as well.

I saw where someone asked Tepid if Walcott could play 3B. Lol

I missed it too, but I heard he banged into the wall going after a foul fly ball.
Going for a pop he hit the corner edge padded railing near stands. Maybe bruised ribs

From Shawn McFarland:

Josh Smith was in good spirits postgame. Said his collision kind of gave him a “dead leg” and agreed w/ Bochy’s day to day assessment.

FWIW: Bochy said pregame that Duran may start at third tomorrow, so this could be a convinient day off for Smith.

Jung now has muscle strain in his neck ? Dammit ! Is this guy ever going to get healthy ? Such a difference maker in the team when healthy.
And now smith dinged up…..
Foscue is raking at AAA, guess he could be called up

That wouldn't stop Adrian Beltre from playing.

Jung's stiff neck reminds me of the time I was finally going to get to see Darvish pitch in person. When we got to the ballpark they announced Darvish couldn't pitch because of a stiff neck. Instead of Darvish, we got Feldman. What a disappointment.

Man, 2-1 with deGrom on the mound and a chance to take this series 3-1, just awesome!
Hopefully we get vintage deGrom - 6 innings, 2 runs allowed, 8-9 strikeouts.
Also some bombs from Burger, Seager, Semien and Pederson.
6-3 Rangers win today.

Yeah that's what Iam afraid of. I thought he would hit 30 + hr but not being out 25% percent of the time

After we lost first game of this series I was hoping for a split but now as you said with Degrom going today we need to take this series
