I agree, but it's hard to believe they will be sellers at the deadline since the division is within reach. I don't trust the FO will do anything smart, so I'd expect Framber and Bregman to ride out the year without compensation. I'm a big Tuck fan, but fully expect him to leave and that they will lose all 3 of those guys for nothing in return.

Do y'all really think they will sell?

Unfortunately no, I believe Jim Crane thinks he has the Midas touch. He will hold, lose out on value and try to fill. I’m thinking that Brice Matthew’s is Bregmans replacement. Joey lopes is tuckers.

Mathematically in first!

Crazy how fast they got into first place. I think the Mariners can get a lot better if they trade for some bats but I think this division is going to come down to the wire just like last year.

Nice come from behind walk off last night!

Hurricane damage and walk offs against the Dodgers?? Feels like a WS trophy is coming soon

Framber Valdez trying to throw another no-hitter for Houston.
Careful, don't jinx him!

crazy4kinsler · 08-06-2024, 09:11 PM

No hitter tonight. Isn't this like their 3rd this year? And like his 2nd?

jdandns · 08-06-2024, 09:11 PM

Just 1 walk and a Bregman error keeping it from being a perfecto.
93 pitches, 3 outs to go...

crazy4kinsler · 08-06-2024, 09:12 PM

This division is a 2 team race. Rangers are out of it. They should've trade Adolis, Heim, a couple of relievers and others. I'm surprised they didn't do anything at all at the trade deadline.

The game isn't over yet.
Ronel Blanco threw one earlier this year.
Framber threw one last August.

Also not over yet.
Texas is 5 back of Seattle with almost 50 games to play.

crazy4kinsler · 08-06-2024, 09:19 PM

So yes 3 in a year. That's incredible. It's not over, but Texas isn't getting a hit tonight. And have you watched this Rangers team this year?

They're scoring 1-2 runs per game (if that), can't get anyone out on the mound. I have no idea why they didn't sell, sell, sell at the trade deadline and rebuild. They should've gotten rid of Adolis (needs to go to the minors), Heim, Lowe and several pitchers. This team is painful to watch and so much different than last year.

jdandns · 08-06-2024, 09:24 PM

No, 2, if Valdez finishes this one.
Framber's 2023 no-hitter was August 1st, so that's over a year ago, but, hey, close enough.

And the Rangers are in baseball's worst division so they still have a chance.

jdandns · 08-06-2024, 09:27 PM

2-time WS MVP Seager says "no", but still a nice effort from Framber, definitely in beast-mode.

crazy4kinsler · 08-06-2024, 09:28 PM

Well dang. I was hoping he'd have thrown his 2nd in a year. Of course it was Seager. That's the only decent player the Rangers have. Now Yordan's homer is looking even larger. Ended up being the game winner.

Nice win though!

Nice for the offense to start scoring runs again
