Series Thread: Rangers on the Road to Face Pirates May 22-24

[Duane1952]

The offense has been great(except for last night)for most of the season with whomever Bochy has stuck into it? Isn’t that true? I want Duran in the lineup before anyone calls for my head

Offense has been pretty good in except about 6 games. But they’re not going to be good like that for a season. Being swept by the reds was ridiculous. The Rangers can’t afford to be in a close game. The bullpen will give it away.

Heim may need a day off. He is slumping at the plate.

Wish we had someone to give a couple of days but Leon would kill the offense. Maybe that why I ask if Duran could catch

They should give him off tomorrow. That would give him 2 days off since there’s no game on Thursday.

Spot on. Leon would not be any worse than Heim has been last several AB's

Although he almost homered today Duran is on an 0 for streak 7 or 8

Not worried about Duran

The hated Astros are finally going to lose a game. They’re down 6-0 with 3 outs left.

I hope that we’ve seen the last of Miller. Why did they pinch hit him tonight

 

[DT LUNA]

As a courteous jesture, last inning with big lead
Pretty sure Miller knows his rope is getting short

Yeah he may be close to a DFA

 

[Kelleyman]

This might bite for them

Zombro pitched for Round Rock tonight. Great to see him do well in his first game.

1.2 inns
0 hits
1 walk
1 strikeout

I thought for sure that they would give that at bat to Smith.

 

[saddles]

That would be an awesome story if Zombro comes up eventually and helps us.

Wasn’t he pretty good before he got hurt.

 

[saddles]

Garver 1 for 3 with a double

Jank was 0 for 3

Game is still in progress.

He was the Rays minor league relief pitcher of the year in 2019.

Is Garver really that good? Seems like he’s hurt all the time

 

[Nightcrawler]

Not a fan of all these day game times coming up
