Flaherty has looked crappy tonight and he’s dominating the Ranger batters

105 pitches in 6 innings and nada for the Rangers

Hard to imagine

 

[jta4437]

have we been winning or losing in those games

We won a lot of games despite the managing of Ron Washington too

One thing about a close game late, our bench is stacked.

 

[DT LUNA]

The RISP bug bites us in the A$$ again.

 

[DT LUNA]

Got to win this for Gray after the way he pitched tonight

 

[scotsman1948]

Pitiful performance by the offense

 

[jta4437]

Grossman sucks

 

[DT LUNA]

disaster

 

[scotsman1948]

Grossman sucks

The 9 players on the field tonight sucked. A 9 inning complete domination by Gray and zero support from all 9

 

[Senator_fan]

Nice game by Gray. On to TB.

 

[saddles]

At least the Astros lost.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Damn shame. Terrific game by Gray.

9 left on base… they earned that L.

 

[Duane1952]

Grossman sucks

And Bochy continues to play him.

On a getaway game subs get to play
Pretty standard

How many times has it happened this year and how many more times do you expect it to happen this year? To this extent, I mean? And not on the day they travel, but the day before an off day

No Duran, Garcia, leody, garver was a pretty deep cut and it hurt us tonight. We couldn’t even scratch across 1 damn run.

I hate punting games like this, but hopefully the rest helps us win against TB.

I get that playing it the way we did is a legitimate strategy. I also get that it is legitimate to disagree that it is the correct way.

What I don't get is the folks on Twitter and other places who take it personally when someone even suggests it could have been the wrong strategy.

No one owes any manager or GM blind allegiance 100% of the time no matter what he decides to do. Even folks who agree with a manager only 98% of the time can be a fan of the manager and the team.
