Altuve better wear one. Astros are the biggest chickens*** punka** team in the league.

Those jackasses were ready to hang the division champs banner in the first inning then they decided to get cute.

His "pitchcom" might fall off.
94chem,

I know the mod is an Astro fan, but this is a clear strike. Right down the middle.
Review from NY?

Issuing a walk up 10 should warrant a swift kick to the nuts by Maddux

Ump calls everything close a strike for Astros pitching and everything close a ball for us.

Guess it's only a strike to Rangers righties.

Awesome that they get the wide strike zone while instigating s*** and we get squeezed.

To be fair, one of those pitches split the corner in half.

Baseball rules can be SO stupid

You can throw a ball at someone on purpose and nothing happens

You can score a run and say something and get ejected.....

no punches...no pushes...no one should've been ejected

Why not bring in White to close this out?

Because we only put rookies in stressful situations lately

So true. Just seems like a perfect opportunity to give White some reps and also would give your bullpen 3 straight nights off

Another gutsy performance by a Rangers SP that got behind early.

5.0 IP, 3ER on Heaney. Glad he recovered.

Had no effect on the play. That said, i think they are gonna crack down on that in a future season. It's become like the "vicinity" rule that they finally abandoned. Very gray on what they choose to call vs not

Should only impact bunts and if contact is made.

I have to believe this series (despite the outcome of the first two games) has increased the value of Taveras, Duran, and Smith as we near the trade deadline. They've all flashed at times and had big moments while filling in for Seager and Garcia. Leody and Duran in particular have been hitting the ball on the screws and before tonight, were victims of straight up bad luck.

It better be a damned good trade if we're sending Taveras or Duran anywhere while our bench includes Miller.

Lots of thoughts on him.

Ohtani was the scheduled SP tomorrow. Their game tonight was postponed. He has given up 14ER, over 16.1 IP, over his last 3 GS (only GS in July). 6HRs given up.

I think most MLB are scrambling to shore up their SP more than anything. Teams might be concerned what he contributes as a SP. As a DH, some teams would need to see how he fits in the lineup. Sure, best hitter, but if all you are getting is a hitter, you may have a DH that has to play the field.

It could be just a way to take the pressure off him for tomorrow's GS. Could be no real market materialized.

Just need to give leclerc 10 run leads and he's all good

Agree. Leody has been pretty consistent for about a year now. He's a very good CF.

I don't want to give up any of those three, they've shown their value. You'll need them for a deep post season run.

Can't believe that Astros fan claimed he didn't know what thread this was. At least don't be a ***** and own it. That's embarrassing.

Would like Speas to get another shot without the game on the line.

I think that's more what has happened. They didn't get the historical offers they expected and are either packing it in on a trade or desperately trying to scare somebody into doing something stupid.

Oh I completely agree. I'm nowhere close to giving either of those dudes up unless it is a big time haul. Just saying these last few games must've generated interest, which is not a bad thing.

Semien is known around the league as one of the consummate pros, but Astros Twitter thinks he is Hitler.

Speas was sent down

He went over back to their thread saying he posted a GIF about Alvarez and Altuve being back, but took it down because he didn't want to get banned
