At 35-22 they are in first place in the AL West and have the most wins in the AL. After watching quite a few games, they look like they may be the real deal this year. Hope they can keep it up. I'm really hoping to get to a game soon.

I am really enjoying this season. Even though they have a couple of automatic outs in the lineup, they are still putting a whuppin' on everybody else these days. Especially happy that the youngsters are making a difference.

That was a nail biter last night but the Rangers pulled it out again. Some bad fielding cost the Astros the game. That used to be us. Profar did well at first base, I thought.

I missed tonight's loss, am hearing about an injury to Beltre and Darvish having tightness in his shoulder. Not good at all.

Beltre came out late in the game while running the bases. After he stopped, he reached back and touched his hammie. After a few seconds, he motioned to the bench and walked off the field. Based on what I saw, it looked like he might have a very mild muscle strain. In the past, he probably would have ignored it, but given his history of hamstring problems, I think he may just being cautious. He certainly didn't wasn't having any difficulty walking off the field.

They were planning to rest Beltre today anyway. Hopefully that will be enough.

Tolleson and Wilhemsen were back and pitched last night. Wilhemsen gave up the two runs that lost us the game. Tolleson looked pretty good.

I wouldn't trust Wilhelmsen at the bean bag toss at the county fair.

Heh....lol

Dyson threw too many pitches the night before. They had to do something different last night.
