    Nice to come back with a k but you needed one strike to get out

    Seager's OPS has been ~950 since July 1st.

    Get Altuve to the plate with 1 out -- Bregs and Yordan might bat too.

    Going for the reverse jinx, I see.

    Well, I don’t not agree with that practice, rarely, unless you think it’s better the other way.

    Yuli was hitting like .300 last I looked in AAA.....he has to be better than anyone we are playing there and might give us a boost in the clubhouse.

    Yuli this year:

    AVG .278
    OBP .358
    OPS .810

    Still better than any of our 1b folks.

    NOT. A. STRIKE.

    Strike-2 was not... tough for any player, much less a guy who K's alot and might not be a major leaguer.

    Espada has the anti-Midas touch- his pinch hitters strike out at alarming rates.

    Were they in a slump before the all star break or after? Are they still on vacation mode??

    Can I just point out that Yates even looks like he’s from Dallas?

    They looked pathetic in the Rangers series right before the break

    Great. Worst baserunner in the league will be a Manfraud runner in the 10th... if we make it that far.
