Suck it Arlington

[Scraps 13490]

Ok Denzenzo now looks 6'5 when standing next to Yordan

[WBT 20280]

Another well-earned save for Hader.  Lulz that he's one off the team record for consecutive save chances converted.

[Overlord 366]

Man, Breggy is balls out on plays with no hitters on the line. He’s done it more than once. That was a tough play. 

[Planet Houston 4918]

Phew. I feel for Framber. What a start. 

[tx 3 putt 75595]

Win the series tomorrow

who wants to take off early and goto the game ?

[Gut Wagon 8039]

As mediocre as we are, if we had Seager we'd win the West by 12 games. Stud.

Such terrible pitch selection on a guy that is Uber aggressive at the plate (after what he showed last AB swgining on 3-0 last AB and then on a not great 3-1 pitch)

Or blame the execution. Not good 

 

 

Boy, he just barely missed his spot. That’s a really good pitch. Just a better hit. Props to Seager

[Overlord 366]

I could have hit that ball out. With a toothpick.

In similar news, I'm over 50 and under 6' even I could take Chris Mihm in one-on-one half court. 

[WBT 20280]

One on one?  3x3 is the new hotness

Huh?

that was a terrible pitch. 
It’s the new picture in the baseball dictionary next to the definition of a cement mixer 

 

 

 

[Rip76 4883]

Really needed that Yordan bomb tonight.

[Stros121 3]

I was having a bad night. Nice win

World Series game 7 tomorrow

3putt and Wulaw waking up with boners.

I’ve given up on Whitley ever being a part of this organization. They’d rather dumpster dive for shitheads that Yankees fans throw parades for when leaving than just call him up and give him a reasonable shot. 
Whatever. 

[Scraps 13490]

Get the Lisa Loeb keyed up

[Gourmand 7761]

Hopefully they squeeze some more magic sauce out of Yusei today because he hasn't fared too well against the Rangers lineup the last two times he faced them: 11 runs allowed 13 hits 3 HRs 8 K 4 BBs

Silver Boot Day !!!!!

This whole Tucker thing is turning into a Brian’s Song type deal.

who will play Tuck in the movie my vote is Alexander Caan.

I imaging some sort of big push into the playoffs where he continues his earlier pace / he’s on fire.

He’ll likely get dinged up or something in the playoffs only to do his best Kirk Gibson impression.

 

[Gourmand 7761]

If Tucker is actually pain free then he should be out on a rehab assignment asap. The fact he isn't suggests to me that they're concerned about a potential fracture in the event of him returning too soon. Or it was actually fractured in the first place, though i think it was a bad bone bruise.

Definitely weird. Don't want to think a player of his stature would be overly cautious about playing, but at various times it's seemed that maybe he's dialed back his fielding effort with free agency approaching. Regardless, we need that bat in the lineup. DH him if you must. 

[tx 3 putt 75595]

Tucker better hit all home runs ….

 

[dr99 551]

Kikuchi should win over his new team by beaning Seager today.

[Halohal 498]

Space city rock!

[Scraps 13490]

Someone do positive shit with bases loaded plz

[David Dennison 17804]

DFA

[Scraps 13490]

1 fucking run. Jfc. Buncha raisin balls

[Halohal 498]

Geez

[Mitch Hedberg 2090]

How many times have we had bases loaded with one out lately and gotten 1 or fewer outs? Damn we sucks 6-9.

[Halohal 498]

Denzo sitting on Lorenzo's 

[Mo Horn 8725]

Good for Zach to get his first hit... and more of the sister/girlfriend/wife please. 

[Scraps 13490]

Only 2183 behind Altuve

[David Dennison 17804]

That is so pathetically bad.

[Honeysucklerose 955]

This lineup is full of no nut pansies

[Hornsbay22 452]

Can no one hit the fucking ball in the air?

[Mo Horn 8725]

We have to be either last, or very close to it, in risp left on base. 

[David Dennison 17804]

DERP

[TejasPedro 1848]

Well that sucks

Wow Rangers got some raisin balls too

[Hornsbay22 452]

Wow that AB by Lowe was bad

[Scraps 13490]

Blum/Kalas said we were next to last to the fucking shithead White Sox in something....maybe OPS with bases loaded I don't even remember....but if the only team you are ahead of is those dudes then you should rethink your strategy/lineup/hitting coach

[Mo Horn 8725]

Yordan heating up
