    I miss the days where we were complaining about Ausmus batting .220.. if we could get even close to that from Carter I'd be happy.

    Santana has a 6.50 era... Cmon fellas.

    Santana's looking like the cy Young award winner.

    Santana isn't good; this lineup is just that horrid.

    We have to be one of the worse teams hitting with RISP

    Buxton nearly drops the Gattis pop fly, and Rasmus nearly hits one out. Instead, nothing.:eek:

    And then Rangers score again on a cue shot by Andrus that he beats out. They have got to be the luckiest team in the league this year with their record / run differential ratio.

    I find it hard to believe that any other team in the playoff stretch would pencil Carter in the lineup like the Astros do. I don't know if Carter is hotwifing Luhnow's lady or he has compromising pictures of Crain but this is beyond absurd.

    Santana's FB is 94-96 today and he's always had a very good slider. He's pitching well and we are shooting ourselves in the foot.

    Sure, but he's struggled every start. Now suddenly he's pitching a shutout with a season high in strikeouts? This is just a really bad lineup

    Well that may have put this one out of reach.

    Not a good way to end the trip, disheartening. Division lead likely down to 3.

    Well with the Astros offense non-existent today that could be a dagger and the Rangers are winning :(
