I get out of bed and need a body cast at times.

It beats showing up in a body cast or hospital gown, but in the words of Winston Wolf, let's not start sucking each other's ….. yet, gentlemen
I'm here too.
I think its great he's there, but I'm whatever the level is below optimistic that isn't quite to pessimistic on how good he'll be tonight. That injury looks pretty relevant to throwing it hard and long and to swinging.

So the wife and I got a wild hair this morning. Just booked flight and hotel to Phoenix this morning to witness our Ranger baws lift the trophy tomorrow night. Banking on them winning this evening. Some pretty good deals on visitor side in that ballpark for tonight. Expect them to be lower or equivalent tomorrow.
Does your wife have a sister?

It is after 4PM. Where is our line up?
Im guessing the injury isn't as bad as we thought. I heard with an oblique injury it is very painful to do the most basic daily tasks. Garcia is one tough guy though.
The D-Backs have struggled to hit the slider since the start of the LCS going 3-for-42 against that pitch.

Garcia not in the lineup.
No Garcia, Jank is in
Jankowski gets the nod. Garver to #3.
Let's Go Jankowski. You don't win Championships without depth.
Calling it now, Jankowski comes up big tonight in some way. Opportunity given.
Won some games with a similar line up earlier this season.
Stay calm.

About 2 months of MLB experience and the kid is batting cleanup in the freaking World Series.

Jank had some good at bats against Houston. If he can see the ball like he did in houston we will be fine.
Paging Kirk Gibson.
He was cleanup last night.Michael Cera Palin said:

Doesn't make it any less funny today

I believe he almost had a home run until Tucker completely robbed him. Really need Semien and Heim to break out of their funks tonight.

No roster move, that's good.
shack009 said:I wonder what the odds of moving Jung up to 5th would be. Bochy said at the beginning of the year that Jung would be our 5 hole hitter for good or for bad. Jung slumped for a while and then got hurt, and has been hitting at the bottom of the order ever since.fc2112 said:
BTW - strategic issue here. Garcia would be batting 3 or 4. No way Jankowski needs to be there. If Garcia can't swing in his first at bat, we're stuck with Jankowski there. Garcia needs to sit unless he's 100%.
I think it would make sense to have Garver replace Adolis in the order and then move Jung to Garver's spot, with Jankowski going to the bottom of the order.
Jank has had a couple of recent at bats. The home run that Tucker robbed in the blowout win and a single to left. I like the lineup today
Adolis García walked through the clubhouse carrying a bat; says all is good. But he’s not in the lineup.

We'll play whomever is available.
The resiliency of this team seems to thrive on adversity.
Last time Adolis missed due to injury, we got a new LF. If not for that, Carter would be home watching instead of batting Clean-Up in THE FREAKING WORLD SERIES!!!!

Sounds like game 5 isn't out of the realm of possibility. Minus missing adolis, I really like the lineup tonight.
Adolis Garcia, after working out today, is not in the Rangers starting lineup but is available off the bench. https://t.co/ZCGIhpobBE

That sounds an awful lot like a spasm.
If I am a diamondbacks fan, I am not sure if this development on Garcia is good or bad. He literally could be the next batter up at anytime. Less at bats, yes, but it could be a key one.
It may only be 1 AB... but Bochy gets to decide which one that is.
Hoping for no drama. Hope we put them away early, but this should be fun.

García has a “moderate strain” of oblique per Bochy. Rangers may have to replace him on roster. Bochy said Rangers will give it an hour or so before making a call.

“That’s never a good thing.”
Sounds much worse. Accodring to Evan Grant- a moderate strain of the oblique, may have to replace him on the roster. Not great.
Radio saying Bochy said minor oblique strain for A... decisions have not been made if they will replace either.
Damn. Was really hoping max's back would be better today.
