Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Houston for Three Games with the Astros July 24-26

I think if we’re involved it starts Friday

We shall see. Lots of teams don’t know if they are selling or buying or standing pat

And that’s why I think Friday thru Tuesday will be fanatical as teams try to complete deals with multiple teams.

Either move doesn’t give me a warm feeling about our competitiveness in the game. Think offensively it will be like last night but pitching wise it could be worse than last night

I might look foolish for saying this in a few hours, but right now, I have more confidence in Bradford than I do every starter we have besides Eovaldi. I think we will see Owen White tonight as well. I am looking forward to that.

Give me the following from Bradford:

4 innings
4 hits
1 walk
5 strikeouts
2 ER

I think we start to see some trades around the league as early as tomorrow or Thursday. And, I am not talking about DFAed guys being traded.

It most likely starts as a trickle and then get going good by the end of the weekend.

Just a little over an hour and a half to sign draft picks.

It has been reported that the Yankees are in trade limbo while they decide if they should be buyers are not. They are tied 2.5 games out of the last wildcard spot.

That makes sense for them to be in limbo. Some of those lower teams shouldn't be in limbo any longer.

The Return of Kirkman

It's a new horror movie series.

Must be Bochy's idea. Can't believe Maddux would want him up.

Me either, but mostly because pitching coaches don't call people up

The Dodgers give up 2 prospect relievers for a very weak hitting, over 30, outfielder, in a trade with Boston. That gives Boston some bullpen depth for virtually nothing. And people don't think Grossman has any trade value. Lol

Duffy moves from Frisco to Round Rock.

Probably does. Just have to find a team that could use him and willing to give up a prospect or 2. Any suggestions
