Two games and we only had to use two relievers in the first game. Well done Rangers.

4 pitchers used total for a double header sweep against our kryptonite. Double header probably couldn’t have gone much better honestly.

All 4 of the pitchers probably weren’t on the opening day roster. The bullpen should be well rested and it must be. The dreaded Drew Smyly is taking the mound tomorrow and I wouldnt be surprised to see over 5 walks issued by him.

I’m going to go out on a limb here. I think Smyly goes out and gives us a quality start tomorrow.

Yeah looks good.

I’m really enjoying watching this team of misfits. Probably the funnest ranger team to watch since our last trip to the World Series.

It’s no secret that I was never on board the Banister train. I get a good feeling from woodward tho. I think the team is finally in good hands.

Maybe Roogie can get a wake up call.

I hope your right. You never know what surprise we may get out of this team.

Woodward does not appear to posture about his guys. Comes across as very genuine. More about them than himself
Very impressive

I think they should work on reducing odor's launch angle, it's way too steep, leaves him prone to pop-ups

Reducing the strike outs would be good too

He's been getting solid ABs, working the count, but he can't do anything with it even when he gets a pitch to hit

Frank Lucchesi's name will forever bring to mind that incredible 1977 season. Beginning in ST and continuing all through the season that season was full of intrigue.
