    Must be arguing with himself, because he said the ball was "clearly foul". He must not know that on the line means fair.

    I don't recall seeing that catcher interference call until this season. Or I've never paid attention to it. Happened at a game I was at in may and now tonight again

    Keuchel wasn't sharp at all, but he basically worked 7 strong.

    And it was 104 before he got Choo. Did those additional 4 pitches wear him out? Granted, it worked for this inning.

    If Bo is wrong when it doesn't work, then he is right when it does.

    I wouldn't have criticized him either way, it did seem unnecessary IMO

    I wouldn't think you would always wait till it is a necessity.

    Not necessarily in this situation, but just because something works in one game, doesn't mean it won't affect the next game. The main reason Veres is in tonight is because Sipp and Fields were both used to pitch an extra inning in a 6 run and 5 run win the past 2 nights and are most likely unavailable.

    I did say "IF".

    Actually, I don't look at it this simply either.

    If you want to apply hindsight, and say Bo forced his own hand by his decisions a game or two ago, then OK. But the 8th inning setup guy is the role Veras is pegged for. So pitching 1 out in the 7th is not a stretch really.

    Hey man, we're know down here in Houston that there is no point in striving for 75-80 games. If ya suck, ya might as well gun for the number one pick! Rangers just taking a page out of our book.
