wo-s#1 Posted October 17, 2023 Report Posted October 17, 2023 It’s baseball and the Texas momentum could change quickly.. Quote

Bullets was talking about Scherzer being rusty and I simply reminded him of a loss when healthy. Astros have played better away than at home, so hopefully that holds true here. Quote

Didn't matter last night. and Verlander and Valdez both beat the rangers last time, but they're a combined 0-2 in the series. My point being, you have no point. It's also debatable that Scherzer was healthy at that point. He made one more abbreviated start after that and then went on the DL. He had some lingering issues already. The real issue is that Scherzer hasn't seen game action in over a month. Everything else means nothing, although I can't blame astros fans who are grasping for anything right now. For what it's worth, Scherzer went 4 innings and 68 pitches in a simulated game last week. He threw well enough that the rangers are going to start him, and he's had another week to get healthy. Hopefully he's dealing, and hopefully Javier is missing the strike zone as much as he did against Minnesota last week. If he gives up 5 walks in 5 innings against the rangers he'll be punished for it, although just like Scherzer's last outing against the stros, it doesn't really mean much until we see how he's pitching tomorrow night.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted October 17, 2023 Report Posted October 17, 2023 I still have us in 6, but IF we're lucky enough to win tomorrow this series is over on Thursday. Quote

TxHoops Posted October 17, 2023 Report Posted October 17, 2023 I’m always conflicted with these two. I grew up near the metroplex but I’ve now spent more than half of my life down here. When they were in opposite leagues it was easy. And I’ve always rooted for Houston as well. But after the Rangers have taken on Creed as their hype song, I just can’t in good conscience support such a mediocre at best attempt to join that craze. Go ‘Stros! Quote
Ty Cobb Posted October 18, 2023 Report Posted October 18, 2023 Scherzer will be on the mound for the RANGERS in game 3. I just hope it’s the Scherzer from about 5 years ago. He was 1 of the best in the league then. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
