Series Thread: Rangers Host the Astros For Three Games August 5 -7

[Kelleyman]

From The Prospect Times:

Mitch Bratt (1-1, 3.27) took his first loss with the RoughRiders as they fell 5-8 to the RockHounds.

His final line:

6 IP
5 R (4 ER)
8 H
7 SO
2 HBP
5 groundouts
3 flyouts
84 pitches, 59 strikes

Like to see him get some extra velo. He was young but still remember him representing Canada and get owned

I guess I saw that wrong. The Mariners came back and won.

Trying to figure out if this is good or bad. Hmmmm

I remember seeing Wilson Alvarez getting owned in his MLB debut with the Rangers.

Hey, check the preseason prediction thread and see how many games I predicted us to win. I was so optimistic it makes me look silly, now.

The Rangers get to add a 27th player to the roster for the doubleheader tomorrow.

They are going to need an extra starting pitcher next Wednesday. We will see if Teodo gets his Sunday start canceled. It certainly doesn't need to be Leiter.

Rocker and Teodo appear to be the closest to being ready. Not that they are ready, but they do seem to be the closest, with Leiter close behind them.
