Very tough spot for my Rangers tonight, Rays come to town hot winners of 5 in a row & 10 of their last 11
Yarbrough has been sharp of late, turning in some of his best work over his last 6 starts appearances
He has posted a 2.25 ERA and held opposing batters to a .195 average, and the team is 5-1 in the games he has worked in August and September
Lynn is 0-4 with a 4.28 ERA and a hefty 1.49 WHIP in his last 6 starts, although he allowed just a single run in three of those starts
I see a under bet for sure, but a late inning loss due to bullpen collapse once again
 
i'm gonna play TEX cuz i think Yarbrough is very hittable and Lynn could dice this lineup if he has his stuff tonight. That TB lineup is so fraudulent
 
Sadly I was correct our pen imploded in the 8th & we went on to lose in eleven 5-3 our record is 72-74

Jurado sucked went only 1.2 innings giving up 6 hits 6 runs all earned walked two struck out one

not sure your opinion on Woodward, but he used Clase far too long and let Mathis bat way too many fucking times in this one. The Odor error was also infuriating

I’m torn on Woody, he gives guys tons of rope & let’s them hang themselves
Players & coaches love him
Odor I’m 95% sure won’t be a Ranger next season & watch he will hit over 300 with 30+ HRs
We strike out so many times & cant get hits with RISP this has to be put on Woody & his coaches
 
Powered by a Solak two run bomb we went on to a 6-4 victory taking us back to .500 at 74-74
Allard went only 4.0 innings throwing 92 pitches gave up 7 hits 4 runs all earned walked three struck out one
We have now won 9 of our last 13

Santana & Elvis each drove in one run
Went 3-12 with RISP left 8 on base & struck out 8 more times

The A’s come to town for the weekend, Burke takes to the hill tonight
I see us winning 2 out of 3
 
V surprised to see Leclerc pitch three straight games last night when TEX is out of contention

I did exaggerate a bit, he’s only a lifetime .240 hitter
maybe next year with a new team he could hit .270

Ha I’ll take the under

The A’s come to town for the weekend, Burke takes to the hill tonight
I see us winning 2 out of 3

That’s asking a lot cuz Burke probably gets lit up tonight. Maybe a letdown off winning a huge HOU series, but OAK is for real and could win a series from the big boys once they get past TB

GWarner27

I see Burke throwing 6 solid innings tonight, handing over the lead to our pen
Tomorrow we have Minor & Sunday is our bullpen game we will use 6/7 pitchers that day

Woody really wants to be over .500 this year & will use everyone at anytime
 
A’s hit five HR’s & power by us 14-9 our record is now 74-75
Burke gave up 3 HR’s in his 3.0 innings gave up six hits six runs all earned walked one & struck out two
Gibaut & Springs each got lit up as well

Santana & Choo-Choo each hit three run shots Santana his 25th Choo-Choo his 22nd
Elvis drove in two, he’s now got 67 RBI’s for the year
Guzman drove in one
Went 5-10 with RISP left three on base we struck out seven times

A real good pitching duel tonight Minor vs Fiers
 
Fiers got lit up @HOU but i like him and expect he bounces back. Minor has been solid all season besides a short blip in the 2H, should be a great one
 
Have not looked yet but Fiers is someone you play on 5 Has won every game. He is really bad on 6 and poor on 4 which is today
