    Bochy pushing all the wrong buttons? Chapman is going to be their everyday high leverage reliever by tomorrow?

    Sborz has been one of the hottest relief pitchers in all of baseball the past month+. One of the reasons the Rangers haven't imploded from their ultra hot start.

    Absolutely the right button to push. He just didn't have it today.

    If you thought we stole game 1 of this series, boy we will be getting away with murder with this one.

    Would have loved to get another run but Pressly needs to do his job and get this save.

    If this game was looked at from the CF BBS “Rangers fan” standpoint, every decision, other than Champan, would have been a wrong one.

    Also, you have a tendency to sell low and buy high based on your previous recomendations as to how to fix the Astros. Pretty much a normal fan reaction… but tough to manage an MLB team like that if you’re just constantly reacting with recency bias.

    Pressley can't function unless there's stress involved. Lol

    Who thought they stole anything? The Astros probably should have put more runs off Heaney and Bochy knew that, hence why he was pulled after 5 without question.

    They made the adjustment on Friday as Gray kept going inside when the strike zone was in his favor… and everybody started looking for it.

    Friday saw the entire aresenal of the Astros elite bullpen… today seems to have shown that they may need more than Chapman to fix their bullpen.

    In the end, the only thing the Rangers have right now over the Astros is a consistent lineup… and that can be questioned once the Astros get some key hitters back.

    The Rangers announcers are really salty right now, lol.

    Do not blame them one bit.
