But.... is it frustrating? The 8th would certainly qualify as frustrating - but only Dubon and Pena hit with runners on at any point during the...
I totally agree on the Singleton AB. I don't know if he was the *best* choice - but he had worked a crucial walk against Lecleric Friday and had a...
Too many fans narrow their focus when things don't work out so they can be mad. But it's rarely one decision that torpedoes a game. They had used...
... have we? He has a .711 career postseason OPS. He's certainly had moments - but if you start to think back over this run... and, granted: he...
I'll say this about Dusty: if JV tells him he's ready and willing, Dusty won't hesitate to pull the trigger. I suspect game 7 in 2019 might've...
Pre-scandal, the writers LOVED Jose Altuve's story. More and more, they're starting to reengage with that again. After game 5, there was almost no...
I had the same thought. I think the Rangers unquestionably have the better offense. And right now - for this series - I would trade Verlander and...
It really is crazy. And they haven't played *poorly* in MMP - they just aren't cashing in opportunities like they do on the road. Last night:...
Yeah, the only one doing mental gymnastics here is you, since I never, ever, not once, made that argument. I fully support playing the better...

I'm not contesting the "should" - what has happened with too much of this fanbase is that the "should" has become a "would." Almost all the...
The Rangers playing poorly down the stretch doesn’t mean anything if we don’t beat them 9 of 13 times; if we don’t win 5 of our final 6; if we...
They hung 3 on him in game 2 - and he was very fortunate it wasn’t more: that bases loaded/no out jam was incredible pitching but it was also a...
The Astros beating the Rangers 9/13 to secure tiebreakers was out of Dusty’s control? The Astros winning 5/6 to end the season to overcome a 2.5...
Let’s not shortchange Pressly: SIX out save!
If Martin Maldonado really did orchestrate this (and I can totally see him telling Baker, “Trust me.”), the Astros need to retire his number...
Why do you think I disagree with that?: My only point is that playing your best lineup doesn’t guarantee success, and *a lot* of people here...
We were in Fort Worth for my 13-yo son’s baseball tournament this past weekend. We had to listen to the start of game 1 on our drive from the...
I said this in the other thread: MLB will almost certainly warn both teams and put the umpire crew on high alert. First HBP is going to lead to an...
