Is Skip playing chess? Ranger baseball

Yesterday Euvaldi were scratched from the series opener with “muscle tightness”. 

Rangers bullpen allowed 6 hits and 1 run in 9 innings. A 1.0 ERA will win you about 120 games, but not this one. Rangers fall 1-0. 

No second guessing on my part, but I do wonder, is skip (and Skip) playing chess or does Euvaldi have a concerning and nagging injury? Only time will tell.

Major League Baseball, brother.

Interesting. Baseball is quite popular in Latin countries, all of South and Central America really and obviously in North America. 

Maybe you could start a pick-up league? Romanian baseball revolution impending.

Well Nathan Euvaldi (sometimes spelled Eovaldi) is the Texas Rangers’ co-ace. The ace is the starting pitcher and Rangers are fortunate to have a 1-2 combo like these two, DeGrom, Euvaldi. 

he did not make his scheduled start yesterday due to some vague injury. I suspect he could have been held out on purpose, Skip thinking the bullpen was rested and able to get the win vs a .500 Diamondbacks team. 

Not a very common move, but possible. The other possibility is that Rangers’ #2 starter has a nagging and concerning injury. So that’s something to watch.

You see, Skip is playing the genius move of "I'm going to confuse everybody, even my own team, for fun"

Funny but not in the war of attrition that is MLB. He has a pennant to secure, first of all. 🤠
