If so they did a pretty bad job. George was not happy.

well, yeah, that ball he swung at was 2 feet outside.

Ranger's stadium is supposed to be pretty nice, never been there, but I ain't going to Dallas just to see it, no sir.

I still can't get over "if anything we need even more home runs and a lot fewer strikeouts. Game's more exciting that way."

"DeShields just swung and missed at a fastball by Straw."

After some careful consideration, I think the Astros need to start Framber every game so he can learn to play better. I'm sure Verlander, Cole and Miley wouldn't mind a little break.

Not to agree with ARod, but I had plenty of rear end in a top hat coaches in my league teach their kids to try and truck me instead of avoiding the tag

"The Astros look flat tonight because of the guy on the mound for Texas."

No, they look flat tonight because of their own guys on the mound + Bregman getting murdered.

i think people stopped hating him, or at least started hating him less, around his last suspension when he went all scorched earth against mlb during the biogenesis thing

i also think he was better received when he first started doing television work but now its just an overexposure thing, he's on the fox panels all the time and sunday night baseball. i thought was pretty good when he first started on the pre-game shows or whatever but now its just kinda ehhhhhhh. a lot of that is just ESPN's presentation in general though.
