    Looks like we'll have DK, LMJ, and Peacock lined up to go against the Rangers on the next home stand.

    Beating the Rangers is like eating all the chocolates you want without getting fat. It is so very, very sweet.

    So how good are we? If we get this hot in the playoffs offensively we will win the World Series.

    This offensive output has been absolutely insane.

    I would try to pull Verlander from Detroit while maintaining Kyle Tucker if possible.

    Verlander of 2017 is not close to Verlander of 2011. I don't think he's that much better than Fiers.

    Agreed. Could be another Kazmir-like result.

    Marvin .630 Slugging (only Trout, Judge higher), 1.034 OPS (Only Trout, Judge higher). Marvin's season is All-Star worthy is what I'm saying.

    Agreed! It's so satisfying, like swatting a fly you've been chasing for a couple of hours.

    No.... but checking the stats, he was definitely 5-tool.

    Unfortunately, like the Killer B's, his toolbox was locked for the playoffs.
    It's a combination of great team and crap division.

    Its MarWin Gonzalez. with a 'w'. I as being a nit picky jerk and i apologize. That being said, the 'win' in his name is not a coincidence.

    By the time he was with Houston for the playoffs, he had trashed his knee and shot a woman.
