    No idea why Pena wasn't trying to steal a bag there

    All he had to do was strike out and let Altuve bat. NO, he hits into a double play. He really gets on my nerves.

    Maldy is worthless at the plate.

    I copy and paste this quote 95% of the games he started.

    This is why you play Diaz. Yes, you're up 8-2. Imagine if you were up 10-2 though because you had a catcher who could actually hit.

    Pena is ass at stealing bases. For being fast, he has bad instinct when it comes to that...or he's just scared.

    Bad day for Oklahoma.

    Rangers swept. Garcia likely done for the year. Luka owned by Dillon Brooks.

    He sucks at reading the pitcher I think. Tuck and Chas are pretty good at it.

    He was great last year, I don't know why he's worse with the larger/closer bases

    More credit than he deserves. Maldy just needs to bunt with runners on 1st base. Don't matter if it's 2 strikes already.
