Astros have a really bad tendency to play down to the level of their opponent.
Which makes me really nervous this weekend since Arlington is a notch above dog **** this season.

Alright Ranger fans are you ready to lose to a team that just got swept by Cleveland. Go Stros!


Hopefully, the same team that swept the Doyers shows up.

Series feels a lot bigger for the Astros than a lot of us think. Hurt or not, they pitched like crap vs. Cleveland. With Pitching Jesus going for the Rangers on Saturday, a short series could become a sweep and Texas goes to the break 6-1/2/ back and above .500.
Houston really needs the W tonight to get some momentum back, especially if Meyers is also hurt now.

Maybe the Rangers can give the Astros tips on how to hit for power at Daiken.

That'd make sense if the Rangers bats were slumping but they've put up 32 runs in their last 3 games. Y'all seem to be catching us at the wrong time as our bats have been in hibernation all season until now it seems.

When pitching at Daikin Park. LMJ has been more than solid on the road.

I'm blaming LB12Diamond for tempting the malicious and caprious baseball gods with this post:

Then again a lineup that half consist of the JV squad isn't helping either.

Can both fanbases agree on this?
Adolis is to the Astros what Altuve is to the Rangers.

They both rake in this rivalry

91 IP, 16 ER, .85 WHIP, 1.58 ERA. Looked like an all-star to me. What do you say, Houston?

Yeah I'd say Eovaldi should have been an all star. He pitched well. I have the same gripe about Framber not being an all star

That is Nutt's line.

That being said, at least we don't have to include an *.

Beats me. I haven't seen him pitch except today. He shoved against a lineup with multiple minor leaguers, three of whom are replacements for other minor leaguers, so it was like playing bingo with several free squares.

Put it this way- I'd gladly trade you Gusto, Gordon, and Walker (sounds like a jag law firm) for him! lol

You guys are the ones 16 games over. Not sure I understand how, but it's true nonetheless.

Thank you Rangers for keeping him out of Austin. Much appreciated and I applaud it.

I agree- it's been some smoke and mirrors, especially against one of the tougher schedules to date. But, that has nothing to do with your question.

Good series win. Enjoy the break.

Checking in on our friends from the north. Yall buying or selling at the deadline?

The Sugar Land Astros are surviving with duct tape and WD-40. We're looking to buy anyone healthy and cheap that swings it from the left side.

Left side? We can make you a whale of a deal on Joc Pederson that would make your head spin. Don't get sidetracked by his broken arm.

Healthy, we've got a DH at Frisco that swings it from the left side. He doesn't miss many meals tho . . .

Hey, Farmer asked the question. That would be a win-win for Ranger fans- help themselves and hurt Houston in the process, lol!

Both teams need to take advantage of the next couple of series. The Rangers appear to be waking up, but they have little wiggle room with a tough schedule looming. I expect the Mariners to make a significant deadline deal, so the Astros need to find a way to beat losing teams.

I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

If I am a Ranger fan, I worry this little hot spell is going to ruin their chance of retooling and trying again next season. It won't be a lot, but you can get something for Corbin, Martin, Gray, and others.

Astros have several bats on la playa. Buy or heal? What if you buy and some heal? Gamble.
