The Rangers outfielders are pretty nasty. This series should be high scoring.

It would be if the Astros could hit, I expect this to be a very one-sided sweep by the Rangers.

:(
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I hope you're right, but energy doesn't usually matter when you have no talent.

Ok, we have some talent, but I think they ran out of Twinkies a month ago.
