Series Thread: Rnagers Go To Houston For 4 With The Astros May 9-12

[Nightcrawler]

Here is what I don’t understand.

Nomar Mazara is in a 4 for 33 slump. He’s sitting today because of poor performance and to clear his head.

Odor is in a 3 for 34 slump. Why is he in the lineup tonight?

I just call it like I see it fellas, but it looks like Odor is getting special treatment. Odor is evaluated by his adherence to the process, while all of our other players like Delino, Mazara, and Santana, pence are evaluated by results.

it’s not a smart way to run a business or a professional baseball team.

Santana batting 2nd and playing CF. Interesting.

Odor batting 6th again.

Hopefully Santana gets a few starts in a row, he might get into a rhythm again.

Mazara rarely sits. A tad bit of overreaction methinks

 

[DT LUNA]

Been wanting to see Santana in CF and see how that works out.

Probably

But the big stench hasn’t missed a game since he returned.

Ok but Mazara sits because he has been playing. Gallo DH cause he has been playing CF a position more demanding than LF

No one has been benched or demoted minus DDJ

Should prove interesting

 

[Kelleyman]

Cole with some filthy pitches and Santana was completely overmatched

 

[Nightcrawler]

First time I’ve cheered for Chavez all year.

 

[Kelleyman]

Pence is a stud Ranger

 

[Duane1952]

Pence stays hot.

 

[Duane1952]

And Odor stays cold.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Glad that douche in right field didn’t catch pence’s home run again.

Is your brain small? And that's why you are incapable of talking about more than one thing?

 

[Nightcrawler]

Smyly looks pretty good after one inning. The main thing is he was throwing strikes.

If they hit it fine, I just hate losing because of walks.

Good inning for drew.

 

[Kelleyman]

G Cole going to command some big bucks in the FA market

 

[DT LUNA]

Got in late. Did Pence homer?

 

[Nightcrawler]

Got in late. Did Pence homer?

Yes.

Cole has been striking out our guys like crazy. He is nasty tonight, but we have been trying to drive up his pitch count.

 

[Kelleyman]

Waste of great Santana base running concludes with 2Ks and Brantley sneaks one over on a fat pitch

Can’t complain about 1 run given up through 4 against the Astros tho.

Our bats need to do better. We haven’t really had a lead on these guys all series.

I mean a real lead like 3+ runs.
