Odor follows with a HR. Up 9-6 in the 9th.

Absolutely did not think they were gonna win that game.

Gallo with 3 walks in addition to the absolute bomb. He really seems to have taken a step forward as a player this year.

Good for the big stench. He's still struggling.

Thank goodness!
He is an expanded roster addition for a playoff team late in the year to run bases and that's it

I would not be surprised if he's traded. I doubt he handles this well.

Someone might fall in love with his speed idk. I just don't think he we take this well unless it's not for long.

It is kind of sad, however, I remember we took him off the scrap heap once already and gave him a home for awhile. He's had plenty of chances, but we haven't seen noticeable improvement in his hitting or his throwing arm. He doesn't get on base enough for a guy with his play style. You can't take advantage of speed if you hardly ever get on base.

I like DeShields. I think he plays hard but I also agree with the decision to send him to the farm.

I'll always fondly remember the Grand Slam he hit against the Cubs earlier this year. I hope he improves and comes back to the big club someday and makes his mark.

Deshields is what he is at this point. A base runner.

He brings nothing else to the table. Can he chase down a few fly balls? Sure, but he's not getting to any that Gallo isn't getting to, or at least not enough to warrant keeping him on the roster.

He's been around 5 or so years now and hasn't improved at the plate at all, and you can't teach a good arm.

Everybody loves Pence. He's like Rusty Greer. I'm glad he had something left in the tank. He was the best player the Astros had for a couple of their awful seasons.

Gallo 4th in MLB in OPS. 7th in OBP at .426. People do not want to pitch to him. Put him 3rd behind Choo and Elvis, and the shift will go away, and he'll drive in 130 runs...I hope...

He is 2nd in BB (by a wide margin) in the AL but I think he's gotten a walk everyday in the past week.

Yep. Trout has a. 485 OBP. Insane, because he seems to never really dominate the game. He just wrecks you a little bit each day. If you walk once each game, and alternate getting a single or a double each game, you'll hit .320, slug .480, have an OBP of almost .500, and an OPS of .980.

I've absolutely loved watching Gallo so far this season. You can definitely tell he's turned corner.

Look for him to be an all-star this year.

Guys used to like to pitch to Gallo since he'd swing at anything within a foot or two of the strike zone.

With his new approach, he's a very dangerous man. You have to throw at least couple of strikes. And you better not make a mistake.

I was initially underwhelmed by the Pence signing, but I'm quickly becoming a big fan

Pence nearly hit another hr that would've put us in the lead, but Reddick went up and pulled it back in for a long out.

And LeClerc... yikes. Struggling again

We lost because of the **** sandwich lineup they put out there against a left handed starter.

Odor, Guzman, gallo, Mathis, Mazara, and Choo.


Really? Mathis can't hit anybody and then 5 guys who are already at a disadvantage before they swing the bat.

From yesterday's Scott Lucas email. Hate seeing Alexy miss time, but at least it doesn't seem too serious. I believe the Seise kid had been doing well, but he is shut down now. At least it is the non-throwing shoulder.


Quote:
Let's get the worst out of the way first: Per local reports, SS Chris Seise is out of the year with a torn labrum in his left (non-throwing) shoulder. When I noticed he'd be placed on the injured list, I watched the video of his last game. Seise appeared to injure himself sliding into second after a pickoff. He stayed in the game and later made a hard if inaccurate throw from deep in the hole. But in his final plate appearance, with a two-run lead, two on and two out, he showed bunt on all five pitches and eventually bunt-fouled out. Seise has played in 72 games across three seasons.

Not quite as terrible news: RHP A.J. Alexy will be shut down for at least six weeks with a lat strain. So, no elbow or shoulder trouble, it appears.

How have we gotten this far into the season without discussing the Ranger's new digital hostess, Hannah Wing?
