    Put up or shut up time. If we have another clunker like yesterday, where we can't figure out how to get some runs across the plate...then we don't deserve to win anyway. Swinging for the fences is great...when you actually hit some out. On days when that doesn't happen, you have to manufacture runs, and that's what this team really struggles to do. That's what's wrong with their approach, and it's been that way for several years. Good teams adjust. The other thing is...I don't know if our young guys are quite ready for this pressure yet. Julien, Wallner, especially Kirilloff, and even Lewis...this is very good experience for them, but they might be in over their heads right now. Houston is a veteran team, with a veteran manager, and plenty of playoff experience. They know how to handle this atmosphere and pressure. I don't think our guys do. There's nothing I'd like more, than to win tonight and then win game 5. GO TWINS!

    Not really anger, just disappointed. I expected to get a decent start from Gray, and he flat out didn't have it. Might be his worst start of the season. We still tend to to have significant issues scoring on a consistent basis. It's feast or famine, with too much famine. Strike out...or hit one out. That has to change. We just don't do a lot of the little things necessary to win games, when guys aren't going yard for us. It's hard to watch at times. We have another shot tomorrow and we desperately need Ryan to pitch well and keep the damn ball in the yard. If he doesn't, it's going to be a long winter.

    Is this discouraging? Hell, yes...but we ain't outta this thing. Not yet. Not by a long shot. It's still early. Let's think positive...at least for a while.
  4. CRF
    Gotta get something here. We can't pull a zero in this situation.
  5. CRF
    Have we scored 4 runs in a game for Gray all season? We need to wake the eff up and start hitting the damn ball today. Long way to go yet...we can get back in this.
  6. CRF
    Oh oh...this isn't going according to the plan.

    The shadows are going to be tough for both teams. Kirilloff fanned on that grounder because of the shadow.

    I'm generally not a fan of the three person booth. Too much chatter. The PBP guy is doing his job and does most of the talking calling the game, and the other two guys are trying to talk and get their points across. Sometimes all of them are talking over one another, or interrupting one another. It's one person too many. It's even worse when they have three people in the booth for a football game. I'm ok with just two...PBP and analyst.

    Gotta win this one. It's Pablo Day.

    I'd consider hitting rockets right at guys, some bad luck. Bad base running is a completely different matter.
  11. CRF
    Ok...now we're in trouble.
  12. CRF
    C'mon now...one run down is nothing. We can do this! Ober has to keep Hou right where they are and we can do it!
  13. CRF
    We've definitely got some bad luck happening so far.
  14. CRF
    Gotta get Eddie in here.

    The first game just ended. Tex won 3-2.

    The GIDP's are a killer.
  17. CRF
    Verlander is struggling with his command. We have to take advantage of that.
  18. CRF
    Gotta get runs in when the chances present themselves. Perfect opportunity in the 1st and we let it slip by.
  19. CRF
    Yeah...that's not the way to start.
  20. CRF
    Wasted opportunity there. To get nothing is going to possibly hurt us.
  21. CRF
    I don't get FS2 either, but I can watch it on my pc so I'm ok.
  22. CRF
    Yep, I don't get MLB Network. NOT GOOD! They should've staggered the games a little further apart.
  23. CRF
    Always liked Verlander, but today I'd LIKE him to take an early shower!

    Looks like everybody is on the same page...the pitching needs to remain good, and we obviously need to hit better and score a lot more runs than the Toronto series. If those things happen, we'll give the Stros all they can handle. I'd add one more thing, and it's just my 2 cents...I don't want to see Rocco over manage us out of any game. No blowing through our bench in the 2nd or 3rd inning. Save the pinch hitting and substitutions for later in the games.

    What? Not David West?
