I know which one will ruin that parlay
I like this move. The Wild Cards and Division titles are nice and all... but those are B league banners now. Keep the prime location clear for league and world champion bannerstjholley17 said:

"Ryan said the Astros will relocate the division title and Wild Card banners that are currently below the lights in left field to another part of the park, keeping only the 2005 National League championship pennant and '17 World Series championship banner in that spot."
I'm interested to see where in the park the banners are being moved to.
And leave alot of room for multiple banners....The Milkman said:I like this move. The Wild Cards and Division titles are nice and all... but those are B league banners now. Keep the prime location clear for league and world champion bannerstjholley17 said:

I want something small and tasteful like this.
The Cards do it well. When you get a few more I think something like this would be nice.

The Astros are the only team with a legit chance. Harden will quit in the playoffs again when things get hard.
Simmer down on the Harden hate.
I'd also be in favor of putting "HOUSTON ASTROS WORLD CHAMPIONS" on a billboard right outside that stadium in Arlington.
So the more I hear about this Whitley situation the more questions I have.
Apparently based on the MiLB drug protocol the only way you can get 50 for a stimulant is if you fail 2 tests. Apparently the first failed test is a freebie but you're entered into a sampling program. After the 2nd one you get 50 games.
So if this was a one off accidental situation what happened the first time? And if he knew he was in a testing program then he's a bigger idiot for taking some unknown stimulant.
Just starting to not add up.

Guess we are grooming White for 2B so he will ready when we trade Tuve.
Hinch said yesterday that Yuli will be getting PT at all four infield positions this Spring.
We'll go to a middle infield of Altuve and Correa to White and Gurriel.
At that point TEX may stand a chance to win the division.

I think we could play Fisher at 2B and the Rangers still wouldn't have a chance.

Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a great offseason. Just wanted to swing by and let y'all know that my coupon code for discount tickets for Rangers games will be active again, just in case any of y'all wander up to Arlington this season, which I suspect a lot of you will for opening weekend.
The code this year is texags18.
As always, if you have any questions about anything ticket related, feel free to shoot me a PM or you can email me directly at jchance at texasrangers .com
Good Bull, AP. See ya on the trash talk thread.
That's only for drugs of abuse. PEDs, stimulants, and other violations (possession of a syringe, etc.) are disciplined after one failed test or violation.Ag_07 said:

The wording in the MLB release still seems a little strange, though. Almost always they'll say what the suspension is for (second failed test for drug of abuse, stimulant, PED, etc.). Because they didn't, I wonder if it's something else and the tweets about the stimulant are just total BS.
If you test positive for a drug of abuse, you are required to comply with a mandatory evaluation or treatment program. If you fail to comply, it's a a 50-game suspension. It seems like that scenario would be appropriate to describe simply as "a violation of the Minor League Drug Prevention and Treatment Program."
It's unlikely that we'll ever get the actual story, so it's all guessing at this point.

Gotta make more room for all the new banners coming over the next few years.
Then it sounds like I what heard isn't completely accurate.
Either way the point being that the more we hear the more this doesn't sound like a cut and dry random one time slip up.
Hope it's something both he and the club have under control and can nip before it turns into a real issue.

Game is on ATTSN and MLB Network tomorrow -
Anyone know if we can still watch on the At Bat app using cable provider info? The ATTSN app doesn't have Uverse listed.

Is it on mlb.tv?
Can't wait for Spring ball to start, and certainly can't wait until Opening day
That picture cracks me up. 4 guys worth millions, 4 hot chicks including maybe the most recognized model on the planet. In tuxedos and evening dresses and in a private jet. And there are two pizza boxes on the tables.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Just noticed there are guys in that pic. Who's the dude behind verlander? Why isn't Mrs. Gerrit Cole there?
Lance. Dude. Smile.
When will Tony Kemp be free to get some playing time in the MLB? I think he could translate and be a solid contributor. Probably won't be in Houston, so what do you think will happen? Will we trade him? Will he just leave via free agency? How does he get a real chance?
