rupert3 Posted September 7 Author Report Posted September 7 Nice comeback win slugfest. 11-5 Blanco out of BP to save. Struck out the side in the 9th. That wore me out lol baddog 1 Quote
rupert3 Posted September 8 Author Report Posted September 8 Mariners lose 2-1 we back to 5 1/2 up I think magic numer is 14. Rangers win Quote
baddog Posted September 9 Report Posted September 9 Verlander can’t expect THAT much run support. Game not over yet. Quote

Going to be interesting to see how the Astros use Verlander in the playoffs. He clearly is the 6th best starter on the team right now. Framber, Kukuchi, Brown, Arrighetti and Blanco are pitching better than him. Blanco has already moved to the bullpen citing arm fatigue. baddog 1 Quote

Verlander is the question mark alright. I miss Javier, Garcia, and Urquidy. What to do when they come back? Quote
rupert3 Posted September 9 Author Report Posted September 9 12- 6 loss but got series. Couldn't expect Dbacks to lay down and die they have wone more games than anyone since all star break. Won 80 games and in 3rd place. Hate to say it but seems like Verlander is just losing it. But he's a Pro's Pro. So maybe. Back to 4 1/2 up Quote
1989NDN Posted September 9 Report Posted September 9 The D-backs' Pavin Smith had the game of his life. 3-4 with 3-HRs, including a 3-run HR, grand slam, and solo shot for a total of 8-RBIs. Before the game, my son and I watched JV warm up throwing long toss in the outfield. He kept meeting with a trainer. I did not see him give facial expressions or body language that he was injured but something is off. In the first inning, his 4-seam fastball was between 94-97. In the third inning it was 88-90. When Smith came up to bat in the 5th inning, fans were yelling, hit him, throw it at him, back him off the plate. Others were yelling, walk him!!! He hit the solo HR. One of those games for the Astros. Day off tomorrow...welcome the Okland As on Tuesday night for one dollar dog night. rupert3 1 Quote
rupert3 Posted September 11 Author Report Posted September 11 Well all three lost last night Status quo. 4-3 in 12 innings. Slow uneventful game. We wil wake up soon. Can't depend on Mariners to continue losing. Quote
rupert3 Posted September 12 Author Report Posted September 12 Kinda off the road a bit lose 5-4 Mariners win Rangers lose. Now 3 1/2 up, Starting pitching is slacking along with hitting. Should rebound tho. Quote
baddog Posted September 12 Report Posted September 12 I’ve seen Pressley be so dominant that I could possibly rank him as one of the best closers. Now, I cringe every time I see him take the mound. He can’t even middle relieve. Astros snap a 3 game losing streak and take game 3 with a 6-3 win. Dubón and Singleton are my players of the game. Peña with great defensive play at SS. Quote
rupert3 Posted September 12 Author Report Posted September 12 Nice 6-3 comeback Valdez no decesion Pressly blew it but gets the win. Now go Rangers LOL can't believe I said that. Quote
A BUC 77 Posted September 13 Report Posted September 13 Pitching and hitting are in a bit of a lull. Go Rangers. Ugh. Quote
rupert3 Posted September 13 Author Report Posted September 13 Rangers win 5-4 Stros back to 4 1/2 up Quote
rupert3 Posted September 13 Author Report Posted September 13 Discomfort on his right side Day to Day. McCormick fracture on hand 10 day DL Quote
rupert3 Posted September 15 Author Report Posted September 15 Verlander shakey but wins 5-3. Alvarez number 34 and Tucker number 20. Overall good win. Mariners win Magic number is 10 I think. Quote
rupert3 Posted September 15 Author Report Posted September 15 Sweep of Angels but not without 9 th ining drama. Bad calls missed catches but a win. Blanco 11-6 nice pitching. Hader 31 saves but should not have been. Mariners 1 hit shutout of Rangers 7-0 Quote
rupert3 Posted September 18 Author Report Posted September 18 Well what a crazy end to a win 4-3. Mariners lose now back to 5 up. Quote

AggiesAreWe Posted September 19 Report Posted September 19 Valdez with a nice 7 inning, 1 run 5 hit game. Ort comes in the 8th and gives up solo homeruns to the first three batters he faces. Cease has 1 hit Houston through 8 innings. Quote
rupert3 Posted September 19 Author Report Posted September 19 Oh well we got 2 hits. 4-0. Made a little noise in the ninth. Valdez pitched good but. Go Yankees didn't think I'd ever say that lol Quote
