    Which is worse:

    Mild shoulder discomfort from Hader or Mild Ego discomfort from Pressly?

    Whatever - it’s house money at this point. The injuries are so over the top, if the Astros fade it means nothing to me as there isn’t a single team that wouldn’t also fade.

    Get Garcia in the pen, have Dubin called up. Sign Pressly if he will swallow his pride and get Walters and Javier in the rotation.

    Meyers and/or Yordan would be nice too.

    The phrase “shoulder discomfort” doesn’t scare me as much as “elbow discomfort” or “forearm discomfort” until there is an actual injury to report.

    Regardless of whether Hader goes on the IL or not, Neris is completely washed. I’d rather see one of Santa, Blubaugh, or Ullola on the ML roster down the stretch.

    Pitching in the Mexican League and struggling. He hasn’t been the same since Tommy John 3-4 years ago.

    It’s bad that we are all expecting the worst with this news…but can anyone blame us? It’s been something new, all season long

    Winning the division would be cool but honestly who cares…I doubt the Rangers care we won it in 2023.

    Just have to make sure they don’t fall out of a playoff spot and hope the team is healthy come October. If that happens we have as good of a chance as any of representing the AL.

    Javier at 94 is a good sign.

    Wish we got to see the guy flashing 96 though. He couldn't be touched.

    The goal is to avoid that 3 game wildcard series.

    We threw out a base runner tonight. And in a most critical situation. I didn't have that on my bingo card.
