Missed the game tonight. Quick hook on Heaney in the 2nd?

Man……. I can't believe how far both Duran and Taveras have fallen. They both were hitting over their heads for a while there, but the drop-off shouldn't have been this steep. We're lucky if we get 1 hit per night between the 2 of them.

Bruce Bochy said Andrew Heaney "caught a crud" in Oakland earlier this week and couldn't throw his bullpen because he was under the weather.
They knew he was gonna be on a short leash today, so with a fresh bullpen, he and Mike Maddux opted to go there early

Heaney at 114 1/3 right now. Needs 150 for his $20 MM.
He has at most 8 starts left - with a slippage for someone here and there, likely 7. Needs 35 2/3 innings. That's 5 innings per remaining start. 7 near quality starts in a row? Tough.
But it's really up to him. He can't afford any more short starts. He can't blame the Rangers either.

King Felix certainly teared up when Beltre came out to meet him on the field. Special moment for sure. Their back and forth trash talking were legend and made the games so much more fun.beagle2009 said:
Beltre made a surprise appearance at Felix Hernandez's Mariner Hall of Fame induction last night. Pretty awesome. Almost shed a sports tear.

The delusion is at an all time high in the Astros thread.
One guy said the commissioner changed the schedule format to stick it to the Astros because they "own the division" and now they have to play NL teams more.
Another guy said after thrashing the angels, who everyone is beating right now, that the Astros are fully back and will win 10+ games in a row.
Then the usual "rangers will collapse" and " we will catch them soon" that they have been saying since April.

On my Houston neighborhood dads WhatsApp group, after Friday's win someone posted "Best Team in Baseball!"
