Series Thread: Grab the coffee, the Rangers start a west coast stretch in Anaheim - Apr 11-13

Looked short to me.

I think it would've cleared, but that wall so short all a defender has to do is make a normal play on it and it looks "amazing"

 

[Hambombs]

Not even worth a pinch runner, Jeff.

LOL. What a bad move, geez

 

[Hambombs]

What is bannister thinking?! Pinch runner makes no sense for lucroy

 

[Duane1952]

Wow, Banny takes out his best hitter in this game for a pinch runner with two outs.

'Night guys. Wasted a good nights sleep on this shit. Thanks, Sam. Crack pot managing there, Banny. Great move pinch running for Lucroy with 2 outs.

 

[jta4437]

Banny overcoaching there

 

[Hambombs]

Smart move, now no lucroy for the rest of the game. Brilliant

If I was the GM. I would of face palmed myself for seeing that

Not that terrible of a move, but I personally wouldn't have done it

Looks like I picked the wrong night to stop sniffing glue.

 

[Duane1952]

Pathetic.

 

[Bmurph]

Bullpen fire sale

 

[jaar01]

Banister is just like Wash. Loyal to a fault. It will be his undoing...ultimately.

 

[Bmurph]

glad we gave up more in the Lucroy trade to get Jeffress, cause he's been pretty terrible so far as a Ranger

bonehead moves look worse when players don't execute

Dyson reeks......

Let Jeffress close he did the same job for the Milwaukee brewers before he got here and leave Bush as 8th inning / get out of a jam guy.

Barnett had the biggest screw up of the night if you think about it. Since he gave up 1 run, the game became a save situation and unfortunately that meant Dyson came out to shit the bed again.

Losing this game really hurts because we need as many wins as possible right now to " hang in there" until Beltre, Ross, and Cashner get healthy.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Shitty managing by banister. Why take out lucroy for a pinch runner? If it was nap or something I could see it I guess, the move just reeked of desperation.

The Rangers have played 7 games so far and Dyson has been the reason for losing 3 of them. He's killing this team. The rooster needs to do something about the bullpen. He needs to shake it up and move some guys around in their roles because they are not getting the job done at all right now.

Jeffress has sucked as a Ranger

He'd do better than Dyson has done as closer this season.

Dyson has stunk but JJ has given up runs in just about every inning he has pitched as a Ranger. Don't get me wrong Dyson needs to be removed from the closer role but Jeffress doesnt need to be the guy they go to. Bush hasn't been good either, the bullpen is a mess right now. Maybe they need to call Kela up and see if he has a fire lit under his ass!
