    Can it possibly go down that you can lose 17 out of 19 to the same club?

    :eek:

    The Rangers are 15 games over .500, 14 of those games are due to playing the Astros

    :mad:

    Apparently that was his reaction to Jason Giambi's walk-off homer last night.

    Chris Carter tied the game. Cut him anyway.

    Astros are going to make it very close with the MLB strikeout record.

    Didn't last long.

    And when it rains, it pours.

    Sigh.

    Will Doug Brocail be the Astros pitching coach next season?

    Not that it is his fault, but my guess is no. Team needs to look for someone with a proven track record.

    So, I guess we lost the silver boot?

    I can't wait for year 2 of this rivalry!

    Only 25 away.

    We struck out 36 times in the Rangers series.

    I really hope not. I can't think of a single pitcher that seemed to actually progress under his tutelage. Most of the time we saw some initial success, followed by failure, followed by a trip to AAA to get "fixed" and return back to the ML level.

    By all accounts the guys we have at AAA are doing a great job with our pitching staff. Brocail? Not as much.

    FWIW, Obie has been amazing with us and Cosart had success.
