Rangers limping into June and in COL for three... Jun 1-3

[True Rangers Fan]

June 1 finds the Rangers in Colorado, with a 6 game losing streak underway and the worst away record in the AL. Dunning, Lyles, and Folty will be the starters for this series. I put the line of HR the Rockies hit at 8. To his credit, Folty has been a decent starter. I doubt there's much interest in him at the deadline, but his season is going better than I expected.

Not much to get excited about on the offense side except for Garcia of course. Rangers went 1-for-18 w/RISP in Seattle. They just can't seem to hit when they need to. Maybe the thin air gives them a boost, but I honestly don't seem them winning more than a game in this one, and that might be optimistic.

On the plus side, I've got Spectrum now so I get to watch the games.

Good that you get to watch. Maybe others will follow. RISP failure has been one of few things that has been consistent. Because it has been consistent in so many series, it may be we really are a very bad team making opponents pitching even better.

Seems like the team has a free swinging approach that has success every once in a while, so they stick with it.

Anyone on board with this offer? Not me. Save it for a younger player who will be around when we actually have a good chance to be done rebuilding.

He most likely gets a longer deal at a somewhat lesser AAV than what Adam is thinking.

 

[Duffman]

Sounds like things about to turn around for y’all. Usually happens when teams play the Rockies.

3/65, I *might* be on board with. 2/65 is a hard pass.

I predict we win 1.

Rangers on pace to win 65 games. I thought they would struggle to win 70 games this season.

The rebuild supposedly started after the 2017 season.

Tuned in just in time to see IKF flail at a ball a foot out of the zone.

I wonder how much buzz Curtis Terry would be creating up here right now, had we not traded for Lowe.

 

[True Rangers Fan]

They are not a good offense

 

[Bmurph]

They are not a good offense

Not to mention terrible on the base paths

And will still be going on during the 2030 season...

Sticking with one, but optimism has waned.

is It just me or does it seem like our farm system never sends guys to the major league team who stick?

Gallo has been a ranger forever. Gallo even played with lots of the old school rangers from nearly 10 years ago. The other one I can think is IKF who has been around for seemingly a long time. When is this great transition from the farm to the major leagues supposed to happen? How come I can barely think of any pitchers we have developed and sent to the majors?

lots of questions that need answers.
