Series Thread: Rangers Royally receive Kansas City for four 7/28-7/31

Jay Bruce scratched from Reds lineup. They're saying its just a day off, but...

just posted this on another thread:

Probably BS, why would he be inserted in the lineup in the first place if he needed a day off, only to be taken out? He likely is being moved or something might be close

Padres Pushing To Move Derek Norris; Brewers, Rangers, Astros Have Interest

By Steve Adams | July 31, 2016 at 12:34pm CDT

12:34pm: Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports tweets that in addition to the Brewers, the Rangers and Astros are also showing interest in Norris. Of course, the Norris fit only makes sense for the Brewers if Lucroy is moved to another club, and he has since exercised his no-trade clause and squashed a would-be deal to the Indians.

Why would we want Norris? Only do whats necessary.

Here's some early Sunday comic relief:

How the Astros have recovered to become the best team in the AL

Oh yeah, it's already 6-0 Detroit today, too.

ESPN once again proving its intelligence.

You mean you don't want us to trade for a catcher hitting .198 who both the A's and Padres wanted to get rid of?

I dont, but we like catchers this season apparently

NO, let the Astros have him

I wouldn't send Stubbs for Norris straight up.

The Tigers have come up big for us. It seems like nobody has been able to beat the Astros in the last month except for the A's and the Yankees.

very exciting next 24 hours!

We'll worry about the Astros when we play them. You'd do well to do the same, but we all know you won't.

Who was that moron at ESPN who just assumed that the Astros would pass us with ease? I know it was written in the last 5 days or so. I forget.

He's just interested in the standings. I am too. The Rangers are in a race, might as well pay attention to the other competitors.

The constant updates and hand writing are tiresome and obnoxious.

Ha! No kidding. But we are attached to every possible move so as you know we just have to take these rumors with a grain of salt.

FWIW, Evan says this reopens the door to Lucroy, but the focus is still a starting pitcher.
