Psst. The Rangers are aggy of the Texas MLB teams.

That Nelson Cruz thing still hurts a lot, doesn't it?

This team has definitely been more fun to watch since Delino came back. Guy is an on base machine.

Sounds like Odor should be back this weekend, and then hopefully Calhoun gets called up soon.

Would love to see this lineup at some point, at least until Elvis is back.

CF Delino

2B Odor

RF Maz

3B Beltre

LF Gallo

DH Calhoun

C Chirinos

SS Profar

1B Guzman

Mazara has been raking. Think him, Gallo and Guzman will be a good foundation going forward. DeShields too.

 

Guzman has been impressive with glove. When he starts hitting (hopefully) he will be a fixture at 1st.

Verlanders last 2 starts against Texas he’s pitched great and has nothing to show for it because his team was 1 hit both times. 

Wow -went back and looked. He's 4-2 in 9 games. Only one game where he didn't make it to six and (the same) only one game where he had more than 2 ERs. He's had a loss or ND in 4 games where he went at least 6 innings and gave up 1 run or less - two of those games were 8 innings..

If Odor can't get his head in the game, he needs to head back down to the minors . Was it Saturday, with the bases loaded, that he swung at a 3-2 pitch in the dirt? Kiner is batting .245. Odor .195

 

Too many dead spots in the lineup. Gallo sucking wind. Rua getting some wood on the ball, but nothing to show for it. Get Elvis back and move Profar to LF or 3rd base.

horrible.  ump choked.  then Odor proceeds to swing at a 1-0 pitch up after the reliever for chisox walked the previous batter and is all over the zone.

Odor's contract is going to be another anchor around our necks just when we had a chance to get out from under Choo's.

Fucking Leclerc was born to lose. He gets a fucking dribbler, takes a lazy windup, much as you might see had the ball been hit sharply to him, realizes it's a close play and, although a normal throw STILL would have sufficed, he slings a fucking slider at 95mph that coulda killed the runner  had it hit him in the head. Born to fucking lose mentality.

He can't stand to get ahead in the count. He sets himself and the team up to lose. His head's not in the game.

Odor needs to sit for a week.

Bascik was talking about Odor the other day and I think he's dead on.  It seems that anytime Odor gets ahead in the count, 1-0/2-0/2-1, he decides he's going to swing before the ball is even pitched because "they have to throw me a strike".  Well, they're throwing him shit pitches behind in the count and he swings at them everytime.  It's mind-numbing.
