I've scoured the Padres roster... I think if I was the Astros I would target......

Jake Cronenworth. Plays 1B and 2B... has also logged innings at SS and 3B. I don't see why he can't play LF.

Lefty hitter who struggled this year (fought an injury), but has classically done well vs RHP. Would be an awesome addition to the bottom half of the lineup. He doesn't strike out bad and walks at a decent clip. He's signed through 2030 for about $12 million a season. I don't see him costing much as far as a trade goes if the Padres are just looking to offload salary.

if we went after Soto or Crowenworth, who do you think we would send to them?


Astros have a system full of middling prospects. Pick a couple and send them West.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Yeah a guy like Cronenworth wouldn't command much if the Astros are a lot of the salary. It really all depends on that.

Ump seems to be nails on the edges so far.

And they strand 1st and 3rd again. This just seems like a night the rangers get a solo bomb to win IMO

I'm getting pissed off all over again. Eovaldi can't find the zone and Gurriel hacks away. So freaking stupid.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

This reminds me of our players swinging at the first pitch and grounding out after the pitcher had just walked a guy and was clearly having command issues.

Eovaldi has as many walks tonight as he's had all postseason. He just walked the guy in front of you and he's closing in on 90 pitches. Why are you swinging at the first pitch unless it's middle middle?

This is the type of game that the Rangers win 2-0 on three hits. One home run and a blooper with two outs followed by a soft liner down the line for a run scoring double.

I think we can all feel the Rangers are going to win this game. The perfect ending to their luck filled 2023 season. 9 LOB and 0-9 with RISP.

They are the anti-Astros this year. Everything that could go wrong for us seemed to.

Announcers gagging all over Eovaldi's nub.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
