Ragans for Chapman and Clase for Kluber won't go down as the greatest trades of the last few years. Bad luck maybe, but I've always hated the "young guy for the so-called proven" player who, in the Rangers' case, always seems to be a couple years past his peak production.

Or I'm just negative as shit right now and pissed this bad-ass season is hanging on by a thread.

Still hoping for the postseason. Playoff baseball is so damn fun to watch.

Is it too late to determine that Chapman failed his physical, therefore nullifying the trade?

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Well there goes the no-hitter

[Dbeasy 14791]

Unbelievable. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pitching staff melt down this badly. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Marcus!

[beer 3197]

First Fucking Pitch

[Dbeasy 14791]

Hottie in white behind home plate. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Well we'll see ya in March Adolis. Fuck

[Surly Bevo 24610]

That's probably an ACL so more like see you in 2025.

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Impressive series, ladies. 

[beer 3197]

I'm outta here. 

[DougO 5231]

Absolute genius deadline trades, Chris. Congrats.

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

I don't know if it's possible to implode this badly on purpose. Good fuckin grief

[DougO 5231]

Have the Rangers completely erased their former season long run differential yet?

[ztejas 42819]

I think the 5 all stars fucked us. You can't do stuff like that to the baseball gods. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

It feels like in the original Space Jam when they zapped Ewing, Barkley and all those guys of every ounce of their talent.

But you can cheat like the Astros and win repeatedly? Fuck all that. Rangers need something to wash off the stink of perennial losing like the Astros finally did. Something to break through.

And if it requires trash cans, buzzers or flying HD drones out in center field to steal signs, I don't care.

[TxTower 648]

Well it was fun while it lasted.
Stick a fork in ‘em.
This team’s done.

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Put Hedges in! 

[Jameslaw121 4440]

Sooo when I got a few negative comments about complaining about boch and maddux a few weeks ago???

I believe I was called a dumb ass that shouldn't post anymore in the rangers thread???

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

I guess Carter could come up assuming Adolis is done. 

[Jameslaw121 4440]

I guess Carter could come up assuming Adolis is done. 

As far as I understand, it won't change any of his time anyway.

All of them missed time after the All Star game, most of them extensive time. Yeah, seems legit.

Fucking Bud Selig, that motherfucker

Apparently Houston set an MLB record for runs over a 3 game span.

Well they were hot coming in…

[Gucci_Suit 2580]

It was fun. Put together a bullpen in the off-season. Save the best baseball for the end next time. This fucking team.

No...
50 hits in a 3 game series is an MLB record
16 HR in a 3 game series is an MLB record
39 runs in a 3 game series is not - https://www.nbcsportschicago.com/mlb/chicago-cubs/cubs-put-up-historic-numbers-in-three-game-series-against-pirates/309465/

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Good news boys, absolutely no way we can lose tonight. Book it.

[Jameslaw121 4440]

Evan Carter..... come on down!

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

3 bombs/8 RBI should be fine for his debut. 

 

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Jung supposedly could be back next weekend in Cle. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Carter crushes and Josh returns and we make a run the last fifteen games of the season.

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Brad's fake injury gets him to the 60. Likely ends his playing career, but he'll qualify for his 10-year pension. 

[beer 3197]

Wait, did we spot them a run for fairness?

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Seager Smash!

[beer 3197]

That was fast

You're lucky you missed top 1, I had to rewind.

Montgomery let a runner score from 2nd while he covered 1st oblivious to the world, then Zeke donked a relatively easy play in LF. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

It was fucking bad to watch. Bad news bears shit

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Holy fuck give me the kid with the bases juiced

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Smith you rally killing pencil dick frat boy douchebag!!

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Ha, Evan gets an assist for that. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15741]

Fuck yeah, move him to 3-hole. 

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

Fuck yeah

Funny because he looks exactly like a Silver Spur I knew

[gsoda3 3197]

2 strikeouts in a row, corey's in a slump.

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

This has been putrid. Absolutely ridiculous

[Herbie Hancock 7276]

And yet it gets worse

[Wally Pryor 5214]

Need to keep Raymond away from sharp objects.
