Isn't Tanaka the one we scored 8 off of in 1 inning? What's the difference between then & now?

I almost would have rather started Peacock tonight, so that if we lost they'd face DK and JV in Houston. I feel good about Friday, Saturday though............


Talk about setting a tone?

Peacock has been good. He deserved a start. DK and JV at home in a playoff series is amazing.

Hey, how's it going nhayden?

If anyone thinks we're winning Game 6 without Verlander tossing a perfect game, they're crazy too.



It's okay to be mad but people that feel the need to post dumb **** like this is annoying.


Why is it dumb? Offense hasn't done anything to show that they'll be able to score enough runs to win without a shutout from Verlander.


Perfect game or shutout?

4 games ALDS vs Boston
- 24 runs, 49 hits

5 games ALCS vs New York
- 9 runs, 21 hits



This isn't just a "it's the postseason, hitting is harder" issue

It was fun while it lasted, but this one is over. Keuchel couldn't even hold up today. Can't see any way we win both at home at this point.

You're good brother. Stay with us through the misery. Hopefully we find our bats or pitching means nothing.

I still don't understand how it's home field advantage when both teams winning at home every time can leave the favored team down a game.

The amount of idiocy on this thread has finally gotten to me. This kind of series is why you build teams for the long term. Its what we keep telling the Rangers faithful. You build for long term because you want to be in the playoffs over and over again. Because when you get there you just don't know what's going to happen.

**** happens. You get cold. An average team gets hot. The Marlins won two rings doing that. The best team often doesn't win. Hell, the 4th best team in the AL over 162 games looks to be the best team right now. It's just playoff ball.

I'm out. I'll watch the game on my own.

This Yankee team is getting hot at the right time and we're getting cold at the wrong time.

If every team won their home games .... the team with Home field wins the series 4-3

Yep. U are right. And to think some were hoping that was the only run they would get. Still would have won the game w these cold bats.

I agree... the split should be 3-2-2 to give a true home field advantage.

I get that, but for the team with home field to have any chance to be down in the series when they've taken care of business at home seems so stupid. The 3 games in a row to the non favorite gives them a way better chance to build momentum.

But yes, we can still take care of business and be fine.
