Thursday Evening Open Thread: Four Questions

1. What's your gut feeling on what is wrong -- if there is, in fact, anything discernibly wrong -- with Yu Darvish and Derek Holland right now? And for that matter, how confident are you in either of them getting back on the right track over these next couple of months?

2. Set the over/under in terms of percentage on the following players returning to the Rangers next season: Josh Hamilton (free agent), David Murphy (arbitration-controlled through 2013), Elvis Andrus (signed through 2014), Michael Young (free agent signed through 2013), and Mike Napoli (free agent). In other words, if your mean expectation on David Murphy is that there is a 70 percent of him being on next year's Opening Day roster, then you'll assign that 70 percent mark to Murphy, and so on and so forth.

3. I already have a poll up on the left-hand sidebar inquiring about the popular choice for the Rangers' No. 1 post-season starter, but let's take a slightly longer-form approach right now: if the post-season started tomorrow, what would your four-man Rangers starting rotation look like? Assume that everyone is available to go on full rest regardless of where you place them in your rotation order.

4. If you could change one thing about the coaching staff's decision-making of late as far as the lineup/in-game strategy is concerned, what change would you elect to make?
