I had to go to a Rangers game at Camden Yards before I finally got a foul ball about 5 years ago. Thanks to David Murphy.

I have been fortunate. One was on opening day. HR balls and batting practice. Tonight will be my daughters first

Quite night

Hard to enjoy the game with Dave and co.behind the scenes

DDJ not passing the eye test. Not sure whether it was a swing or not and kind of doesn’t matter

DT LUNA · Aug 14, 2018

Special thanks to Dave & Co.

Wish we had the ear of a rangers exec

People should let them know that their broadcast stinks.

Whenever I watch the team it’s usually on mlb at bat app that I pay for. It lets me pick the broadcast crew.

I almost always pick the opposing team.

I hear ya. I want to go to 100% streaming but have hesitated for 2 reasons

Fox sports SW and wife reluctance. Broadcast announcers minus EJones definitely lessen my desire to keep the cable

Observations from last night.
1. A bit overconfident about foul ball or ball tossed to the stands to cute daughter. Going to have to go to a batting practice
2. Springs looks good but bullpen has been depleted
3. We have a good young offense with potential but we don't have Goldschmidt. Best hitter on the field. Need that to step up
4 Corbin looked great but looked like the ump did us no favors
5. Watched DDJ throws during warm ups and even throws in. Runners pay no attention to him. Yes he has wheels which gets him to balls but we need more. IF he could hit which is currently a no he could play LF. But now he does not pass eye test as a major league ball player. Sad as the speed is a definite weapon

Learned something new. Definite baseball junkie article

Day off on patio. Beautiful morning checking out the baseball. My poison of choice. Spoke to a guy with a Steve Carlton jersey last night That brings me back. What a workhorse

I'm going to be buying a couple of tickets to the September 23 game, just in case that ends up being the final home game of his storied career.

I am planning on a Saturday game in September but thinking that last game may be a Sunday. Just might make that too

Last night was exceptionally bad, even for them.

What distrubs me most about him is his reluctance to do what he does best, and that is, make contact, spray it around, and use those terrific legs to your best advantage. And he knows this is his biggest, if not only, true asset.

He seems to insist on wanting to show off some nonexistent power, where he should be sitting over there with Choo and listening to him on how to hit PERIOD. Worked wonders with Odor.
