Somebody has to win those 4 games.

It won't be this team.

Rangers fans probably saying the exact same thing.

Whit babip luck has dried up and he's been bad for awhile now. And he was one of our better hitters.

A dominant Kikuchi getting pulled from the game after 5 innings. Genius manager strikes again.

They aren't watching what we're watching. The AAA guys were a massive upgrade over them, they should be in this game.

Semien and Seager both mashing as they are is more than enough to get that Rangers team past us.

Are these guys for real out here?

I just hope we score 1 run tonight.

Have faith guys.

3 straight innings now watching the 3rd strike to end the inning... against some 6.08 ERA champ.

Only chance for that would be a Schneider HR.

OK. Kikuchi is out. I guess?!

Why? How could anybody who watches this team have faith?

He was just too dominant today.

Schneider, you are playing 10 games in a row over 10 days, including a crucial 4 game series.
Don't take your starter out at only 88 pitches.. getting an extra inning here and there from your starters in that stretch will make managing the bullpen easier.

Needed to rest him for the Rangers series.

Another moronic decision by Schneider to pull Kikuchi early. Some people are saying it is the people above him that make these decisions. If that is the case, that is even a bigger joke.

Well at least Hicks had a clean inning.
I'm confident we are getting at least 1 the bottom of the 6 -- despite their being no reason to beconfident.
