So basically pitch Abreu tonight with the risk of him being suspended for a potential game 7.

8 ip of framber shoving, Abreu to close the 9th.

This suspension deal is strange.

I still can't figure out why Garcia didn't can't a ban too.

And in 2017 with Yuli (arguably a "worse" act from a PR standpoint) they put it off after the WS.

There's no way MLB is removing the suspension entirely. That would make them look bad...like it was a hasty decision.

My guess is it gets reduced to 1 game. So he's missing either game 7 or game 1 of the World Series. Sucks that they had to insert themselves into the situation but that's par for the course for Manfred.

A fair settlement would be trading off Abreu's suspension for taking away the home field advantage from the Astros for this series and playing another game in Arlington (that and suspending Dusty and Garcia)

He hasn't cruised 6 innings against the Rangers … one game he gave up a few runs so I guess there is a chance Framber does well today.. I'm. not holding my breath.. pen better be ready

In 2017 they didn't think we could win it all.

One thing I just thought about, and I'm sure some of you have as well, is if Abreu appeals, and then they decide to uphold it in, say, 30 hours...he'd miss 2 potential WS games.

Of course, if he doesn't appeal and we win today, he'll miss WS game 1.

Such bullsh-t

There is also the chance it gets dropped to 1 game or 0 games. I am thinking today plays a lot into it as well. If the Astros win, they may just drop it since the two teams wont be playing and if it goes to Game 7 then we will be without him as he serves a 1 game suspension.

I'd think a realistic goal of the appeal is to get it down to one game altho maybe I'm wrong. How can anyone ever really know if he was intentionally throwing at Garcia or not? They can't.

Meh. When you play in 7 straight ALCS and 4 of 6 WS, you realize that's a lot of games needing someone or someone's to throw out a first pitch. At this rate they will get to Wade Philips and the ghost of Jerry Glanville.

Y'all need to stop worrying

Pissed off, cocky, killer Astros are best Astros - and that's what they are going to get today.

Our entire problem this year was us getting into our own heads, pressing and playing tight. All mental. Today you are going to see the champs being the champs.

Not how it works. They have to hear his appeal before they can hand down their pre-determined response.

Mess with his head before the start or mess with team karma? No win situation.

I expect a massive round of BOOs when Garcia comes to the plate. Also those in RF need to give him hell.

Only Arlington rangers fans would say all the pressure is on the Astros tonight when they're the ones in a must-win scenario tonight. Delusion

I hope the rangers get absolutely smoked out of the 2023 season tonight. Good riddance

Saw that and thought the same thing. But they live in their own soft and fragile world, so no big surprise.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

I expect a chorus of BOOs but it would be more apropos if MM gave him a standing O since his antics probably lead to the victory Friday.

The Orange jerseys aren't a road uniform. They're worn at both just depends if it's white or grey pants

"Astros reliever Bryan Abreu is officially appealing: If a settlement is not reached between the union and MLB, a hearing is expected to take place Monday before a potential Game 7 between the Astros-Rangers.
A decision on his suspension could then be rendered at any point."

I guess Abreau comes
Out of the pen first and goes 2+? (If rolling)

Imo this so all just garbage people using others to market their product. Headline hunters.

They're facing elimination and we're not. Sure….the pressure is on us.

They'll probably wear Frambers blues today and if there is a game 7 (hopefully not), they'll wear the orange. CJ usually seems to pitch better in the orange jersey.
