Lineup*

and

Josh Hamilton, who had surgery last Tuesday, threw from about 70 feet but did not put a timeline on when he would return. He was expected to miss four to six weeks from the surgery
Closer Frank Francisco threw a bullpen Tuesday and said his right shoulder was “money”. Francisco will make a rehab appearance Thursday for either Double A Frisco or Triple A Oklahoma City.

Not gonna get get upset until this series pan out.

RW is doing absolutely zilch right now when it comes to getting something going for this lineup. I don’t consider it punishment if the guys get moved around. You would have to be one of three blind mice to not see something needs to be done to get these guys motivated. That’s just me though.

diamond will never be cut

in 4 years after 8 more trips to the DL he will retire a rough rider

Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."

He can be that power righty maybe

Or he can go into the long man role and you can send Mathis or Holland down. Holland back into the rotation to get consistent innings

I never maintained that Nolan made out line-ups.

He gets outta da way and lets people do their jobs – then he evaluates.

Washington is stuck in a rut and isn’t smart enough to make adjustments.

Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."

i'll take the under

Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."
