    Pena has had some boneheaded plays and errors but he's also had some spectacular Gold Glove catches

    Awesome game by Framber. The ace picked the team up

    And Pressly finishes with no baserunners (although the final out was smoked)

    Three runs in an Ohtani start isn't so bad, but we still got problems to Clean Up

    Framber Valdez will win the Cy Young this season.

    Excellent victory against a tough pitcher. Ace performance by Framber.

    Framber is a DAWG, what a way to put the team on his back when we needed him desperately.

    Framber has picked up a healthy amount of velo this year out of nowhere. He looks indomitable.

    If he wins Cy Young, we have 0 chance signing him knowing Crane don't do long-term. The current Texas Rangers will always outspend the Astros, I think Crane likes it that way.

    Julks was a fun story, but his on base is down to .266, you would have to hit for a tremendous amount of power to make a .266 on base look good

    Chas and Meyers should both be in the OF but dusty just won’t

    Framber is older and likely won't command a deal more than 5 years. Crane went 5 years for LMJ who's a much bigger injury risk (albeit, he was extendable/cheaper because of that).

    Alvarez and Tucker back to back 3rd and 4th.

    If I remember last year they hit back to back a few games in a row or in a small sample of games and really killed it.
