My goodness, they simply didn't show up this weekend.
yep... if he's not going does that hit get through?Cromagnum said:
We have some of the worst hit placement at the worst times.
11 for his last 48 (.229, .593 OPS)...ironically that is still better than Straw.CFTXAG10 said:Farmer1906 said:
TEN WHOLE AT BATS?!
This was my beef with the comment. It's 10 at bats. But please let's throw Straw and McCormick in the lineup together. Sounds great.
I thought Bielak or Emmanuel would get the 6th-8th. Just looked at game cast again and saw Raley still in?

We've also hit some balls really hard right at people this series.
Don't @ me with what our "real" problems are, because I know we have bigger ones than this, and as soon as I post this he will strike out the side, but...
We aren't going to get far as long as Raley is a guy that comes into tied (or close) ballgames.

Part of the order where they have 3 lefties.
I like this kid a lot. Showing off the wheels here:

At least having Raley in to face 3 lefties out of 4 batters makes sense.
Yeah it makes absolute sense in a vacuum where Raley is a legitimate major league LHP.Beat40 said:Harry Dunne said:

Might be my fault. I texted my buddies before this series "I'd trade getting swept by Arlington for demolishing Bauer next week."
Nothing would be better than to have him leave in the second after giving up 8 or 9
Damn balk
I don't get that balk call.
Unfortunately, when the offense reaches rusted jalopy mode...it lasts for a least a week. Given the upcoming schedule, looks like that could equal a pretty bad stretch.
Not a balk. Quick pitch. Counts as a no pitch and the runners are not moved.
If that screw-up by the field crew had cost us, I would have blown a gasket.
Last slider to punch him out was a dang good pitch

I think he's just up and down like our entire bullpen is.
Last 5 games he has a 1.69 ERA, a WHIP of 0.938, and SO/W or 4.50.
I'm not saying he's who I want in a close game late, but mid innings against a spot in the lineup where the majority are lefties I'm more ok with it.
Wasn't a fan of Raley getting the 6th but it worked out.
I say Emmanuel in the 7th

Read the thread = it's a blowout
Check the MLB app = Down 1-0

This is what this Rangers starter has been doing lately. So down 1-0 in the 7th feels worse than it looks I guess
Officially a balk and the runners did advance to 2nd / 3rd according to MLB app
We're going to lose this 1-0 aren't we?
Fair enough and as long as we don't have Billy Wagner breathing down his neck I don't have a problem putting him into the right situations, but he's not a guy that is going to come into tied ballgames for a WS champ. If he's coming into that situation in the playoffs we have zero chance.Beat40 said:Harry Dunne said:Yeah it makes absolute sense in a vacuum where Raley is a legitimate major league LHP.Beat40 said:Harry Dunne said:

Why not give Emanuel a shot? He at least might be a pitcher that can be that guy.

And they didn't even get a damn hit that inning.
This game is ass, just like the previous 2 this weekend.
Straw is the king of the backwards K
What's Straw arguing? Even I'm like sit your a** down
If Folty keeps this up he's going to miss his regular Sunday afternoon game of hacky sack with his coworkers at the weed dispensary.
Straw costing us credibility with the ump by arguing that one
The next couple of weeks are going to be ugly

Straw costing us cuz he sucks
Fixed it for you

Why?
Then maybe someone else should argue to the ump when Altuve gets a ball called 4" off the plate inside on him.Deluxe said:

Straw was wrong there, but he didn't cost us any credibility when the Ump doesn't seem to already have it for one of the best hitters in the game.
