  1. I was never a fan of Lindblom... Hated that he was the "major" piece in the Young trade...

    Profar is probably here to stay now in some fashion....

    At least Darvish is on the hill tonight!!! Probably going to be a rain-out and then possibly a doubleheader tomorrow!!!

    I'm not saying he will no-hit the Astros, but Houston is not disciplined enough at the plate to do anything against Darvish... I predict an 8 inning, two-hit performance with 15 K for Darvish tonight... Rangers will win tonight somewhere in the 9-0 range!!!

    Care to recant? ::)

    Astros are leading 3-1 in bottom of 5th. Astros with [size=14pt][b]3 HITS[/b][/size] already off the nip.  ;)

    Lol, nah... I do appreciate the Astros this season... They've handled the Angels!!!
  3. But what does the trade say to the fans? If I was an Astros fan, I would be irate at the current state of the team.... When Lowrie was healthy last year, he was one of the bright spots.... I agree, try to gather as many young prospects as you can, but you have to put fans in the seats somehow, and the promise of a bright future doesn't do that....

    Their team payroll is less than a handful of players will make alone this year...
  4. The Rangers are going be just fine.... Lots of fans stressing over no big signings, but Pierzynski was a big signing....

    C- Pierzynski
    1B- Moreland
    2B- Kinsler
    3B- Beltre
    SS- Andrus
    LF- Murphy
    CF- Gentry
    RF- Cruz
    DH- Berkman


    1. Kinsler
    2. Andrus
    3. Berkman
    4. Beltre
    5. Cruz
    6. Pierzynski
    7. Murphy
    8. Moreland
    9. Gentry


    I like it!!!
  5. Not sure what they were thinking by trading away Jed Lowrie... They got back some prospects, but I'm not sure how close they are to being in the majors...

    Not trying to down them, but they will more than likely have to work very hard to not lose 100!!!
  6. Miami and Duke are really good, N.C. State and North Carolina are good, and that's about it... Might be the weakest we have seen the ACC in quite some time... Someone else out of the conference will make the tournament, probably Virginia, but they don't necessarily deserve it...
  7. If I had to pick right now, I'd say Indiana is the team to beat and Florida is a close second....

    Indiana is scary athletic, and they have Zeller on the inside.... Florida meanwhile can shoot the lights out and I hope and pray that is the matchup we see in the Championship Game....

    Best four teams RIGHT NOW (So in essence my Final Four picks)

    Indiana
    Florida
    Gonzaga
    Michigan
  8. Here's how I view our everyday lineup in some fashion....

    C- Geovany Soto (or a FA pickup, possibly Pierzynski?)
    1B- Mitch Moreland
    2B- Jurickson Profar
    3B- Adrian Beltre
    SS- Elvis Andrus
    LF- David Murphy
    CF- Craig Gentry
    RF- Nelson Cruz
    DH- Ian Kinsler

    There are other guys who will get some time, including Leonys Martin.... I think we will get another left-handed bat as well, maybe a Nick Swisher or an Adam LaRoche....

    As far as the order, how about this:

    1. Andrus
    2. Gentry
    3. Beltre
    4. Cruz
    5. Murphy
    6. Kinsler
    7. Moreland
    8. Soto
    9. Profar
