Many of the playoff bound NL teams are still cupcakes. How San Fran has a winning record with the guys they throw out there is crazy. Braves and Dodgers are the only 2 teams I would consider decent, all the rest are pretenders and the Rangers are benefiting from their schedule right now.
Yeah, we need the Mariners to lose. Don’t give a damn about the 1 seed. It’s all about winning the division, and Seattle losing certainly helps. As for the Ramgers, they’ve had a very favorable schedule since the All-Star break. That all changes in the second half of August when they have to play a bunch more road games than home games. Since the ASG the Ramgers are 13-2 at home and 6-6 on the road. Meanwhile the Astros are 8-3 at home and 10-6 on the road. As you can see, the Ramgers have benefitted from a nice schedule. The Ramgers get 6 more home games this week, but have Milwaukee coming in. Then a 10 game road trip. September especially looks to favor the Astros as they get 9 games against KC and Oakland. The Ramgers have just 3 games left with Oakland.
We had some crap luck playing the Pirates, Giants, Reds when they were all hot. The luck is going the Rangers way now playing teams in slumps.
**** 'em...**** 'em all...why don't we just be better than they are and not worry all that much about anyone else?
It would be a travesty for the Astros to score 22 runs with France and Verlander pitching but not give Urquidy any run support. Hopefully the hits keep on coming because I don't trust Urquidy to hold the fort.
He was 24) consummate professional, night in night out. 25) First in / last out student of the game. And all the hoes wanted his nizz-uts
No, I loved baseball in the 80’s just rooted for the giants the. Excuse that was my local team. Craig Reynolds is my preacher. He’s an awesome human being.
Rangers paly the Mariners 7 more times this season if I'm seeing correctly. Something will have to give.
