    Please limit talk in this thread to this series. Other topics should be discussed in the appropriate threads. Play-by-play is not allowed. If you need that, there are other places to find it.

    All of the play by play ...





    The Rangers announcers just could not stop talking about the no-no after the first inning.

    If the Astros sweep I will bet heavy on them to make the playoffs. They will be 2 games out of the division and poised to add:

    One of the 10 best SP in baseball

    One of the 10 best closers in baseball

    Their starting LF (A league average bat who represents a meaningful upgrade over the strikeout machines they are currently playing)

    Their starting 2B (an aging hall of famer)

    Without fail.... when the Astros play Arlington, Degrom and Eovaldi will participate. Doesn't matter if they threw 110 pitches the previous day -- they will throw on short-rest against Houston. Gotta get those Houston games in !!

    This is not a joke. Those ERAs are dropping like rocks.

    Baby steps.

    Dave Raymond is an epic douchebag. He and Dallas deserve each other.

    Couple of silly nuggs. Lot of outsiders felt it was cruel to put rookie Santa in that spot in his first game but end up rooting heavily for the kid. The probability that no hitter holds is really really low. If you put this season Abreu there it's 110% gone.

    About AL West. I have been and I am strong non believer in Espada. Mariners who should with their rotation atleast once hit WS this window are even more fed up with their manager. Dude has no track record or experience (like we would appoint Bagwell) and makes insane moves with Mariners FO. So point being we have a chance here even with lesser rotation and dead money. I admit before win streak I was dreaming we lose 1 more and then surge with some new manager who players can respect and is demanding stuff everyday but I will take AL West with Espada too :).

    Somebody must inform Caster now.

    This is a 4-game winning we're talking about -- with a no-no !!

    THREE hours until game time....

    You know your team is having roster issues when Trammell comes off the injured list and immediately put into the cleanup position.
