Rangers trek to Minnesota for a 4 game set - 8/3 thru 8/6

Strange that the same thing happened with Darvish. Does Brocail have to hold classes on this. These pitchers and catchers along with coaches should not be having these problems.

I question Perez' explanation. Bannister doesn't really buy it either.

Gallo's exploding bat!

Atta boy, Drew!

Thank goodness no one got clobbered with it.

Very bizarre that I don't miss Lucroy at all

Cole respecting the pitch count tonight

I wish him much success in Colorado. The better the return for us.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

I think there is zero chance he comes back now

I calculated a 17.45% chance of Yu returning next year.

If we get Otani our chances increase to 43.22%

That's by my model.

Perez is getting skipped. He said he's tipping his pitches.

That seems to be the going excuse these days. It's probably more the opposing team scouts are doing a good job.

Just saw where Darvish subtly threw Lucroy under the bus about pitch framing.




The Rangers took out a full page ad in a Japanese paper thanking Darvish.

Man that's cold. Well now they are division rivals.

Lol yeah.....I guess he figured it worked for Yu when he got bombed for 10 ER.

Nice of the Rangers to do this. Self serving perhaps, but still a nice, and prudent move.

If there's one thing the front office understands, it's the importance of cultivating and maintaining a relationship with Japanese players.

Calhoun's 2nd HR in 4 games with RR.

 

[DT LUNA]

Well played Drew

 

[Justinkm83]

Tyson is pitching well. I hope he figures it out down the stretch and comes back to us on a 1 year deal. He is a TORP when healthy. Hamels, Otani, Ross, Cashner, and Griffin. Although i don't think we will be able to affford Cashner.

 

[DT LUNA]

Good Diekman report

 

[darrylgann]

Good play, there. Can't get much from our offense.

 

[DT LUNA]

Close it out Cole
