I know it's super short notice, but I have a couple extra tickets for today's game. Shoot me a message with your number/email and I will send them to whoever messages first!

Odor is really on fire.

Well boys....I think we found a damn good closer. LeClerc has been dominant since taking the role.

That last pitch was so filthy.

FYI.... at least in Austin, Frisco is playing tonight on FoxSW. Arrenando is pitching tonight, who is a decent pitching prospect for the Rangers. I'll be checking out at least some of the game.

Almost wasting his arm as a closer. That splitter is phenomenal, like Bryan Harvey or Trevor Hoffman.

Please no more "let's make this guy a starter!" projects. If the guy is a good closer/relief arm, LEAVE HIM THERE.

Saw this earlier today, we may be struggling to fill out a rotation, at least for a few days. We need to tank these next few games against the A's anyway.

Quote:

Rangers beat
The Rangers remain uncertain as to when right-hander Bartolo Colon will make his next start. Colon was scratched from Sunday's start against the Angels with back stiffness.
Banister said left-hander Mike Minor is progressing, but the Rangers are still uncertain when he will make his next start. Minor was scratched from Friday's start against the Angels with back stiffness, but the Rangers are hoping he'll pitch in the three-game series against the Athletics that starts Monday in Oakland.
Adrian Beltre was not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Angels. Beltre, who is dealing with a strained left hamstring, was back in the lineup Saturday as a designated hitter, his first game action since Monday.

Astros fans say no tanking allowed! Have some self respect!

I meant more of an Andrew Miller role.

That would be against the rules. But nothing illegal about pitching Tocci tonight

As long as Khris Davis is in the lineup.

O/U on Davis HR's in a 3 game series against Texas is 1.5 (25 HR in 49 career games). I'll take the under (might as well be optimistic, right?).

Naw, he's the worst 2nd baseman in the league, astro fan told me so.

I'd say he's gotta be a good candidate for comeback player of the year, if a 24 year old can win it.

I think grape gave up on this thread. Posts under his other account on the Astro thread. Still uses the grape account on the politics board though. Similar to this thread, he's usually trolling on the politics board looking to get a reaction out of people.

At some point they have to move to another city that will build them a stadium. It's pretty clear the city of Oakland isn't going to foot the bill. Believe they have tried several times.

Time to switch over and watch the Mariners beat Houston.

Tied with 1 out in B8, in Seattle.

Cano just juiced a 3-R HR.

7-4 Seattle with 1-Out in B8.

Anything to help the Astros not make the playoffs works for me.

He really enjoys playing at Minute Maid, Tropicana Field, and the Orange Bowl.

Beltre on his future: "If I feel like I can't hit anymore which sometimes this year I've felt that I can't hit anymore, if I can't compete with the young guys, yes, I'll pack up my bags and go home. Right now, I'm not at that stage yet. I might be there at the end of the year."
It's coming. He already has his HOF numbers, the injuries are happening more frequently. I think he is done after this season.

Agreed. His K numbers are way up. Last season, in 94 games, he struck out 52 times. This year, in 87 games, he's already up to 77. He's not drawing as many walks as he used to. His power is down. I think it's time. I was really hoping he'd make a run at 500 HR, but his injuries last year and this year have made that almost impossible.

He'll be a lock for 1st ballot HOFer.

With Beltre and Dirk on the cusp of retirement, Aggie Football has a giant void to fill in the next few years...
