I've been watching the series but not posting. I just don't understand Semien's approach at this point. You've been terrible all playoffs and you are the lead-off hitter. Stop trying to hit the shit out of the ball. His slump has made it way easier to pitch to Seager because there's never anybody on base.
So your analysis of the guy who led the league in hits and runs leads you to believe that the problem is that now he’s trying to ‘hit the shit out of the ball’? Instead of what, swinging slower?

First of all, why would TB want to trade Evans? They are in the middle of a playoff race. Secondly, the Texans already have a 30+ y.o. WR on the downside of their career. No thanks
Would completely depend on what we had to give up. He’s in the last year of his deal so there’s no financial obligation beyond prorated salary for the remainder of this season. True that his best years are behind him, but his curve is way, way higher than Robert Woods’. He’s also always been known as a team leader and great locker room guy, which would only help Nico/Dell/Metchie/Hutchinson. If TB would do it for our extra 4th rounder or (ideally) a 5th plus a throw away pick on 2025 it’d be worth thinking about.

Garver’s hot pop but he’s a GIDP machine.
Need locked-in Dane with the sinker working; if he could somehow get us to the 7th that would be fucking huge….

Looks like we’re only rolling out the guys who haven’t pitched much/at all in the postseason. Don’t totally hate that up 2-0….

I’d auto walk Yordan, the next two games
As a Rangers fan I completely agree; dude is like 2001-era Barry Bonds without the 14 1/2 hat size…

Back when I was a kid I was one of Jim Sundberg’s Junior Rangers (this was in the mid 70s). For like $20 you got a shirt, 2 free outfield tickets to like 5 games, and admission to Junior Rangers day. For the latter, all the kids would go down to old Arlington Stadium at like noon for a 7PM game.
They’d take us down to the field and split into position groups where a player would run through some basic tips for about 15 minutes. After that they’d throw you two (and only two) pitches and you’d run the bases after your second pitch. That part took forever, so all of the parents had some time to kill waiting for their kid’s turn.
My Dad was milling around during that time as Toby Harrah, the third baseman (my position) left the field. Dad, who idolized Ted Williams, told me he’d always wanted to ask Toby a question. His recollection of the conversation:
”Toby, I loved Ted Williams as a kid and he was the first manager you ever had in the majors. What was that like?”
”Well sir, early in spring training my rookie year I faced Bob Gibson and he made me look like an idiot. I came back to the dugout and there’s Ted, and he said ‘Son, if I were you I’d just hit that slider into the gap and take the double. He’s pretty good’. And I was thinkin’ ‘No shit motherfucker; if I could do that my goddamn wife wouldn’t be workin’ at fuckin’ Piggly Wiggly. I hated Ted.’”
Toby Harrah was my Dad’s favorite Ranger until the day he (Dad) died….

I tweeted this a second ago and wanted to get y'alls thoughts here. I'm just now watching Jung a lot. Surprised by how weak his arm is. Is this a thing or am I just getting some skewed view from a few bad throws or something?
I think your evaluation of Jung’s arm is weak..

Living in Austin it’s an AIDS ridden Astros hole.
It comes and goes; when we were on top and the Astros were losing 100+ a year Austin was absolutely a Rangers town…

Probably because Dutch just had Tommy John about 7 weeks ago.
I was told there would be no facts….

Why wouldn’t Holland be the one throwing the pitch /nohomo?
Dutch still has the #1 postseason start in Rangers history, edging out Cliff Lee’s masterpiece in Yankee Stadium…

stiff competition.
If the game lasts more than four hours do they call it on account of player safety?

I just don’t see the Rangers bullpen continuing this dominance.
I don’t know that I’d call it ‘dominance’; it’s been effective in the sense that no leads have been blown, but still a fuckin’ white knuckle ride, especially when Chapman rolls out there. Definitely better than the regular season (especially that late August to mid September stretch), but I still won’t be comfortable any time the tying run’s on deck no matter who’s up there….
