I can't believe he isn't running nearly every time he reaches first base, especially in games like last night where one run could have won the game.

So, Minor of the Rangers just got his 200th K of the season. I understand it's news because Guzman intentionally dropped a foul ball in the 9th inning so he could get his 200th but am I missing something here. It's only 200 Ks. He's the 23rd pitcher to do it this year. Why the big deal on that? Is Minor getting a $5 million bonus for it?

Any rumors about who is starting tonight. Other than Urquidy pitching and Correa being out, I have no clue.

Obviously he doesn’t have the green light to steal anytime he wants to. The one guy on the team who should have the green light doesn’t while the less-than-sharp short guy does. Go figure.

The one guy on the team who should have the green light doesn’t while the less-than-sharp short guy does. Go figure. You read my mind. Straw is the only player we have who should have the green light when he is on first or second base. He probably has the intelligence to know when to run.

But, but... every team we play against has an All-Star "soon to be Hall of Fame" elite catcher on their team.
Our running game makes Stassi look like an All-Star at his position

First Last L/R Pos OPS+/ERA+George Springer R CF 146 Jose Altuve R 2B 130 Michael Brantley L LF 126 Alex Bregman R 3B 161 Yordan Alvarez L DH 181 Yuli Gurriel R 1B 127 Robinson Chirinos R C 108 Kyle Tucker L RF 129 Jack Mayfield R SS 18 Jose Urquidy R P 101
This might be the Game 1 Playoff Lineup

I'm assuming you mean spots 1-8 as no way Mayfield makes the team

Interesting fact. Mayfield only has one single this year. He has 5 doubles and 2 HRs to go along with a Single and one BB.

I think our playoff first game looks like this:
Springer Altuve Brantley Bregman Alvarez Guirriel Correa (he'll be back to start) Chirinos Reddick
Verlander

Looking at stats. How in the world is Will Harris 6'4? I mean Will Smith is 6'2 and he's a big guy
