Dubon likely playing 2nd... Maldy will probably be catching Urquidy so means no Diaz

Diaz is hurting this team with his constant offensive production, he will never see the field if he keeps that up

Looks like the Rangers are just going to keep winning

Maybe Diaz at first and give Singleton the day off?

It will make it all the more enjoyable when they collapse in September

That would be way too creative for Dusty

Creative is when he sits Yordan and Tucker and goes Dubon, Jake, Chas left to right and puts Kessinger at 2B.

Toronto lost. They are now in a tie with Seattle for the last WC slot.

The same Seattle that sold players at the deadline.

They probably regret that decision to trade their closer

They also tried hard to dump Teoscar. They have been on a crazy run since the ASB.

It's been lots of bad teams. The Orioles have been the only +500 team the last 17 and they get KC for 4 next.

ETA: after KC, they come here to play us, then get CWS, KC and OAK to end the month.

I bet the winning% of their August schedule must be below .400. Talk about a nice gift.

Got this from a buddy tonight via Reddit:
With Yanier in lineup: 4th in runs scored. Not in lineup: 17th
I did a bit of research, and in games where Diaz had at least 3 plate appearances, the Astros scored 331 runs in 62 games for an average of 5.34 runs per game, which would put them 4th behind Atlanta (5.71), Texas (5.70), and the Dodgers (5.67).

Without Diaz in the lineup, or only a single plate appearance, the Astros scored 248 runs in 56 games, for an average of 4.43 runs per game, which would put them 17th in the league.

Amen.

Kessinger hasn't started in a week so he might get the start at second. I don't know how dubon escaped a concussion after head butting the center field wall the other night

seems unlikely based on these comments by Dusty

Rangers have been hot since AS Break - lasted longer than we thought but still won't last. We haven't gone on that 8-10-12 game win streak since what - April/May? Maybe this is the start of that. Looks like it.

Another great lineup, another great result! Too bad it looks like tomorrow's lineup will be vintage Dusty.

The Rangers remind me a lot of the 2021 Giants. Surprise team that has a great regular season, but can't handle the postseason and gets knocked out in the divisional round.

Best parking advice for tomorrows game? Haven't been on a Sunday in years. Just street parking as close as I can find it?
Didn't see any lot C passes available online, which is what we normally grab.

Plenty of lots around. Less expensive the further from the stadium. You'll find plenty of options just driving around. Signs are everywhere.

Get there early and find a free meter along the streets. Meters don't run in Sundays.

May have to walk about but free is free.

This division race reminds me a lot of Atlanta vs the Mets last year. Hopefully we don't flame out early in the postseason like both of those teams did.

I just don't feel like this team is "grinding" right now probably because we have a fresh Altuve and Yordan along with a fresh Diaz (thanks Dusty...even if I'm being sarcastic). Heck, add Singleton to the fresh list.

This usually is the stretch that can wear a team out but I guarantee you JV feels like he's been given new life and although our bully has been taxed lately we've been giving them a lot of rest and non-stressful innings.

I kind of laugh at scoreboard watching with the rangers...we're the lion, they're sheep. Relax.

Ah geez, not sure how I missed that. Thanks. Kind of wish they could give someone else a shot besides Hensley.

This season feels destined for an all Texas team ALCS.
