Series Thread: Your Texas Rangers at the L.A. Angels 5/2 - 5/4

Did I ever say I how much I hate these late games? #realignment

I hear this loud and clear.

Honestly, never put too much thought into realignment. But we're involved in 3 time zones, as opposed to 2 or even one. Interesting point of conversation though. Let me ask ya this, which is worse on teams traveling.........distance or time zones?

The reason I ask this is the AL East and the NL Central travel a bunch. But it sure looks like our division has more frequent flyer miles than anyone. But at least we have Houston, which we can drive too. The NLC division spends a lot of time in airports/planes.

Yeah, if the Cowboys can be in the East why not us. Not serious of course but I am with you on these late games.

Hahaha.......Ya know, I'm no map wizard, but I'm not geographically challenged either. The Cowpaddies being in the East is a contradiction in terms. No one should be in the East, when you're west of the mighty Mississippi IMO.

Honestly....why is this guy on our team now? We can't hit him 10th now can we?

I'm a Tennessee homer, and I'd kicked his ass outta here a week ago.

[terpsfball09]

omg best news of my life

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

We need to be patient with our AB's. Apparently this guy walks a lot. Avg 4.5 per game...

 

[darrylgann]

Well that was a familiar beginning

 

[terpsfball09]

Fielder got a fucking hanging loopy ass breaking ball and he pops up to the catcher. I just dont understand this torture... Ian is performing better than prince? I would have never freakin guessed.

And Cruz hit his 8th homer today

 

[terpsfball09]

I forgot to post this, but I read an article yesterday that April was Prince's worst month in his entire 9 year career as a pro. In virtually every category

Edit: not that it should surprise anybody... just saying. I mean, will he regress? Is he gonna revert to just an above average player this season? I hate being pessimistic but he looks awful. He swings so hard every time and hits it nowhere.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Rios is the only consistent hitter we have...

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

C'mon Mavs!!!!

 

[DT LUNA]

Same ole base running crap
