Texas Rangers vs. Houston Astros 8/9-8/12

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Thank God Cotts- man, are we making tonight's game too hard or what? I'm about to have a heart attack here!

 

[pegasusredleg]

A bunch of hard throwing with no idea where it will end up. Cotts should have come in to start the inning. He needs to be the setup guy.

I think because Cotts has had so many injuries and just came back healthy this year, they are being careful how much they use him. Imagine the "now" Cotts pitching in the playoffs. We would be golden.

nobody thinks Soria is hurt do they? little paranoid about pitching injuries
gee I wonder why....

 

[WastinSomeTime]

thanks, what I figured, but didn't know if defense was maybe poor...blah blah ya know


come on Cotts!!!!!!!

Garza had some innings where it looked like Houston was going to score even more runs but he got out of those jams. He can thank the offense for bailing him out tonight.

 

[pegasusredleg]

Well with all the big bats loading the bases in the bottom 8th, that means they won't bat (hopefully for us) in the bottom 9th.

I think he has more than earned the job...

Nope, it was on him. 3 doubles back to back. 2 solo homers.

Probably just being cautious. They want everyone healthy for an October run.

Kins...nice

good, sounds reasonable

I'm thinking Adrian goes deep here. calling it.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Just have to get their starters out of the game. Their bullpen has just killed this team. No telling how many more games they could have won with a good pen.

I like that Ian gives Beltre somebody to drive in on a regular basis.

Their manager helped a bunch tonight too I think. He had Murphy intentionally walked.

 

[pegasusredleg]

Love it Kins Love it

Interesting point

Another Papa Johns night.

no freaking kidding, just wish we had a little better protection for Beltre...but I've missed most of the games for a week, maybe AJ is enough

in any-case, it doesn't seem to be hurting Beltre.. BEAST!
