Series Thread: Rangers Play Three Games in San Diego July 28-30

Dunning has walkitis in the 3rd

Big part of that is terrible calls by the umpire.

Astros lose

 

[Bmurph]

Cash considerations go to SD. Maybe the same cash we got for Hearn. Lol

Send cash for Sandy

 

[saddles]

The Cubs win again, meaning another seller is slipping away.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Seems like Dunning never gets run support on the road.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Pulling Dunning after 90 pitches is really stupid.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

The Grossman fetish needs to end. Dude has killed two scoring opportunities tonight.

This just in… Yerry Rodriguez sucks.

Yeah, just a little bit

3-0 game and you put in a guy who has control issues almost as bad as Jonathan Hernandez?

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Bochy is doing an awful job managing the pen tonight. Starts by pulling Dunning at only 90 pitches, then puts in Rodriguez and proceeds to just...keep him in there after it's obvious he doesn't have it. This was still a close game until this inning and we were about to be facing SD's bullpen. Just bad management.

 

[Senator_fan]

Well that just about will do it.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

This one's on the bats not showing up and Bochy stubbornly sticking with Rodriguez.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Well that just about will do it.

What the heck was Bochy thinking?
And I'm a big Bochy fan. But tonight has been embarrassing.

Make this idiot finish the game. Don’t even care if his arm falls off, save the pen for the rest of the series.

At this point, why not? If they're dumb enough to let him blow it, make him end it.

Note to CY- you don’t HAVE to wait until deadline day to swing a trade. Any time you want to get another arm or two or maybe even a bat to inject life into the lineup and keep us from falling out of first place is fine with all of us.

Spot on. Hell, I'd be happy if they traded for Nick Martinez tonight and had him ready to pitch for us tomorrow, lol.

They're showcasing Howard so he can fetch the team something in a trade - like a few broken bats.
