Did we get any updates on Gomez?

High ankle sprain and left the stadium in a walking boot & crutches. Out indefinitely.

New Player Note Sun, Sep 10

Carlos Gomez (ankle) is not in the Rangers' lineup Sunday.

Gomez suffered a badly sprained right ankle Saturday and is getting around with a walking boot and crutches. He figures to be sidelined for a while. Ryan Rua is getting a start Sunday in left field, with Delino DeShields shifting over to center.

 

[Duane1952]

I should have talked bad about Rua a long time ago.

doesn't it seem to be that way? And he made a decent running catch in the 2nd, believe it was.

But Rua was part of that ridiculous "3 man rotation" in left to begin the season, and performed poorly.

 

[Duane1952]

And AJ gives it right back.

 

[Duane1952]

Gallo take the out at first.

Poor decision making on Gallo's part. And we would've gotten out of the inning easier had he done what you suggested.

definitely need some life from the offense

I believe we've gotten 3 hits in the last 12 innings. Not so swell.

And here's a note for Sweet Lettuce, since you K almost no one, you can't hit 2 guys, walk another, especially since you give up the long ball on a consistent bases.

Offense misses AB and JD has a fuckton of work to do with this pitching staff

Should I check in or check out?

You've already committed sir......And what a time you picked. Yikes!

I think we're witnessing the disintegration of our WC chances today.

 

[donaldson79]

Duane damn-it, give some guys a bad time so we'll get 3/4 runs in our half of the inning.

 

[DT LUNA]

This should be the last of Nick. Simply not a MLB pitcher

Too soon for that, but we're definitely seeing how we perform against postseason competition. Mixed bag at best.

Mixed bag before today's game, I should clarify. This game is an absolute bed-shitting.

Yeah it's hard to think much else.....In his first 8 pitches he gave up a triple/double/2 singles and didn't record an out.

Now he's taking a shower and we're dead & buried.
