Rangers vs Stros: go for the sweep

[romeo212000]

MY batting third again. Please tell me we're not going to let another AAA junk baller give us fits again.

 

[romeo212000]

Christ Colby. Quit grooving batting practice pitches.

 

[romeo212000]

This home plate ump is just awful, for both teams.

 

[fanman8825]

We had a great opportunity to jump on this kid.

two terrible at bats by snyder, swung at ball 4 his second at bat. he had 2 or 3 great games at the plate and thats why his stats are decent, but other than that he has been spare. the rangers need more reliable utility players than him.

Snyder definitely looked awful but he's not the only one. If Beltre hadn't been trying to hit a grand slam in his bases loaded opportunity we might have scored too. Nelly's been awful too.

Torrealba you lazy fuck, move your ass and block that ball instead of trying to pick it.

 

[elziegreat42]

torrealba's lazy ass needs to block the ball and quit trying to pick it! the only decent thing he has done all season is call decent games. everything else he has been absolutely terrible at. torrealba is responsible for this rally. useless bastard! what a cocky shit bag. i wish one of the veterans would call his ass out and let him know that shit wont fly!

 

[romeo212000]

I'm getting sick of these slow starts and missed opportunities from our hitters. Especially against these scrubs.

 

[romeo212000]

I'll say it again. Young is not a #3 hitter.

 

[elziegreat42]

this offense needs to wake up here. lewis is pitching brillianty. it would be a shame if this game came down to terribleah (torrealba) and his ineptitude self being the deciding factor

Colby seems to be on the short end of many of these close games. Hell he could wind up being 5-6 after today and that would be a travesty

 

[fanman8825]

We need to make a move in this inning now that Cruz got on with the single

 

[romeo212000]

Ian with another slump buster! Bout damn time.

scared me with those 3 patented Kinsler uppercut popups but he leveled it out when needed

Oh I just knew he was going to pop out again, but he came through. He's been slumping, but he's just about pulled out of it.

 

[romeo212000]

Why can our offense not wake up till the 5th inning right now?

 

[scotsman1948]

that's the way i felt. he was trying to swing for the fences when all we needed was a single

 

[romeo212000]

Colby may get another complete game here. With our depleted rotation and 6 man bullpen we need it if he can.

I'll say it again. Young is not a #3 hitter.

When Hamilton is out of the lineup ... Cruz ought to hit #3.

What are we supposed to expect Young to do being protected by Beltre? Young actually played a nice 3b today though. Where did he get the arm to make the cross diamond throw without it bouncing twice?
