I took the boy to Chicago to see Wrigley and he was the most excited about Mancini (because Astros) .. We watched the replay of the catch he made off the Schwarber.... We talked about what a great guy he was an all that.. Crazy to think we may have been in person for his last MLB game.. 

 

Stros should bring Mancini home on a AAA deal and try to replace Julks at DH

I think that the Rangers will be mentally broken once the Astros take over 1st place. Young teams if limited playoff experience usually don't react well when veteran teams finally chase them down and overtake them.

Rangers are losing players, while the Astros are getting our guys back.

That’s been this whole season. Yeah Texas lost DeGrom but the Astros have been relatively decimated by injuries, while the Rangers have overachieved like mofos to the tone of a half game lead in the AL West.  In the past week, we got both the heart& soul and mountain of muscle back, as well as a proven arm. 
 

Regardless of Texas fear or not, Astros about to administer a good old fashioned ass-whipping.

I love the swagger and if any fanbase deserves to flip bats it's us, but some of y'all aren't giving the Rangers enough credit imo. That lineup is stacked and they just addressed their glaring team weaknesses so it's going to be a dogfight for the division title. They aren't fading away. The Astros need to put together a long 10 gm winning streak like they have in past seasons.

Blanco is coming off a 9 strikeout game. He can be a valuable arm for the playoffs 

In the bullpen where he can compete with Stanek to see who can walk more guys in mop up duty.  He's not a starter on this team.
