Texas Rangers 2023 - They're Still Shitty?

[Ignatius 4,017]

Eh it was a known risk.

Didn’t the 2016 team have a +6 run differential or something crazy (for a playoff team) like that?

[SameSame 1,704]

Something about it, can't put my finger on it but I don't like these guys.  Let's win this one.

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Fucking kill 'em, Adolis. 

[Pato del Muerto 52,498]

I was about to go looking for degrom info before opining about waiting until after the asb because why hurry.  Seems like that’s all but guaranteed now as best case. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

He didn't listen. 

[ConferenceRoom 6,141]

Just missed that. Dang. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Fire both hitting coaches, this is horseshit. 

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Goddammit

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Quite the defensive display on back to back plays.

[DigDug 1,669]

uhh we want to wake the fuck up now?

Jonah looks more like an Avett Brother 

Just realized he cut it. Don't fuck with a good thing, bro. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Now we rake. 

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Well done Zeke

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Corey bout to lose one. 

[ConferenceRoom 6,141]

Jung is a hoss in training. So good. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

We like that half-inning. 

[ztejas 43,446]

What a beautiful fucking single. I can't believe how good this guy is. 

[ztejas 43,446]

Man I thought that was lifted... 

[ConferenceRoom 6,141]

Blue might be smoking crack.

Adolis had no problems with that one.

[DigDug 1,669]

Don't say it

[ztejas 43,446]

Is Adolis the best RF in the majors? 

Fielding wise. 

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Jung isn't ever getting mistaken for Adrian, but he can pick it pretty damn well

[cmontexas 3,271]

Nolan aint no Josh Jung

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Man this game has seen some interesting action on defense

[ztejas 43,446]

We hit so well. And I like it and think it's more sustainable/repeatable because a lot of our guys really hit for average. It isn't just sabermetrics power shit it's well rounded. 

[Bozo_Casanova 26,460]

Pallante's throwing motion is ... unique

[cmontexas 3,271]

Wainwright stopped throwing his breaking ball because our lineup was sitting on it early on. Which kindof supports my theory that our improvement offensively is driven by Bochy and his guys being the GOATs at sign stealing. Also take into account our absurdly low LOB% and the big innings we have been putting up

They’re stealing the signs being sent by the electronic blue tooth things?

More likely they can quickly spot any kind of tip. Which is how the game is played Bochy is a HOF manager with decades of experience. Im not saying were doing anything illegal or hilarious like the trashcans

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

This ain't ideal. 

[Radical Larry 28,615]

[Scary Stranger 1,714]

Ump squeezing the rook.

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Mother fucker. 

At least we got one. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Alright, scratch here. 

[Bozo_Casanova 26,460]

Helsley throws hard, jeez

[Radical Larry 28,615]

Of course they bring out Mariano Rivera.

[ztejas 43,446]

"Highlight is that .169 BAA"

Yeah I mean the 24/6 K to BB ratio is decent, too.

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Sit down, female.

 

Walk this bitch off now. 

[ztejas 43,446]

God this team is so fucking refreshing.

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

That slider was fucking filthy. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Now steal here. 

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Seager smash here would be fitting

Man this game has seen some interesting action on defense

And again

[ztejas 43,446]

I'll take it. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Hahahahahahaha, thanks! 

 

Throw a WP. 

[ztejas 43,446]

Garcia is walking this shit off. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15,982]

Drive home safely, bitches!!!! 

[Herbie Hancock 7,347]

Nathaniel motherfuckin Lowe
