West Coast wind-down continues.....Seattle 9/19-21

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

I like the new renderings of the stadium a lot more than the previous ones.

ummm, what?!?

How many does the current park seat?

Doesn't sound like too much of a drop off.

ummm, what?!?

The Rangers need to leave the " field guy" behind or tell him to take a hike when they move to the new park. The field has looked like shit this year.

The Rangers release artists’ renderings of their new ballpark

But it still has too much of a Minute Maid look about it too suit me.

I think our park now holds about 49.000 so it is a decent sized drop off.

Must be true because you would never say such a negative thing.

That's well over 15% and this seems rather substantial.

I was just hoping it would still be above 40,000.

Believe it or not some parks land in the range of only 35,000-38,000

We never use all of our Seats on a regular basis anyway, so maybe the loss won't be noticed too much.

This is almost as ludicrous as saying "we should have kept him in the minors instead of calling him up."

How is it ludicrous? It might not happen, but it’s not ludicrous. Any trade talks for a front line starter will involve Calhoun.

He was taking a shot at me. It's ludicrous because I said it. I was thinking if Calhoun really is a hot shot prospect that it might be good to keep him down so that we wouldn't start his clock. Would give the team control for a longer period. So far, calling him up has been a bad decision from what I've seen.

Angels lost. Twins/Tigers are on FS1 if anyone is interested.

If the Tigers win and we win today then we would be the closest to the 2nd WC spot that we've been in a long time.

It's unlikely that it plays out exactly that way because the Tigers suck and Paxton is tough on us, but we can hope.

Maybe Elvis and Beltre could shoot kinsler a text and ask him to play his tail off against the Twinkies the next few days.

I don't think the Rangers are going to make a trade for a front line starter.

It's not my fault you say ludicrous things, such as this post.

This is what transpired between Just and Eph........

Crawler was right, I was taking a shot at him. He had said the Rangers should have kept Calhoun in the minors, even though the minor league season had ended two weeks prior.

I should also mention that this "start the clock" thing is a pretty nonsensical thing to worry about. All it *might* do is cause Calhoun to become a free agent earlier than the longest possible time the Rangers would have.
