Again, I'd settle for one win. Hope I'm wrong again. No Holland.
No Hamels either then. Kinda why I wasn't too hopeful for this series. Gonna rely on our offense a bit.Ramos to pitch the 3rd game. Sounds like suicide to me. Where's Chi Chi?
He has not been good at AAA. 1-3, 4.76 era, 14 bb's and 17 k's.Ramos to pitch the 3rd game. Sounds like suicide to me. Where's Chi Chi?
Good idea. His last two starts against the Bluejays have been terrible.Derek probably needs a break vs that RH lineup the Jays run at him

Rangers' Derek Holland: Start pushed back to Monday
by RotoWire Staff | RotoWire
Derek Holland will make his next scheduled start Monday against the A's, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Holland would have been on schedule to take the hill Sunday, but the Texas Rangers will push him back a day so that he won't have to face the Blue Jays over the weekend. The 29-year-old righty has only managed to go five innings over his last two starts, allowing 15 earned runs in that span while only notching two strikeouts.
Something sure has clicked with Guzman.This is from Scott Lucas' Rangers farm Report this morning.

I almost accidentally omitted Bush. The subjective age adjustment I add to my spreadsheet pushes him down to around 20th among the farm's relievers, and I didn't see him. Your typical 30-year-old AA reliever isn't much of a prospect. In his case, I think we can ignore his age.
Hope we can move some of these pitchers up from A ball soon. AAA is non existent and AA with a few intriguing names.This is from Scott Lucas' Rangers farm Report this morning.
