Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Chicago For Three Games With the White Sox May 23-25

but as long as the team has Semien, Garcia and Pederson dragging the team down they wouldn't do any better and it wouldn't take long before we're complaining about them

Yeah, some players need to go too. Either by the deadline or after the season. This year is unfixable, but it isn't too early to prepare for next year, both in the field and in the dugout.

I don't think Bochy is a lock to last the rest of the year. He probably retires at the end of this disappointing season, anyway. Might as well let him go a little early. They can hire an interim guy and then look for a manager after this season.

Mark DeRosa is still available.

The Frisco manager is well thought of, I believe.

Bochy said last night that the team is going to get to where they need to go.
He must be delusional. So far in his tenure here this team has been good in two segments. In 2023 when they started 40-20 and then in that years championship run. The team played mediocre ball after the 40-20 start and just barely made the playoffs.
Last year was mediocre and this year may be worse.

There are currently only 7 teams in MLB with a worse record than the Rangers.

Tired of hearing Dave Raymond trying to justify our losses.

That would have to be annoying

An early double puts Alejandro Osuna's OPS at .980 for Round Rock.

 

[fanman8825]

The team is lost. They forgot how to win.

Sure does feel that way. When you start losing to the Whitesox twice in a row by 8 runs it feels like the team hit rock bottom

That is annoying, but it is part of his job. He has to try and convince folks to keep watching.

 

[Duane1952]

Pederson has fractured right hand. On the radio they seem to think that Osuna will get called up.

 

[Duane1952]

If they do call Osuna up. They should DFA Pillar, and call up Crim too.

keep all 3 and outright Garcia. with Pederson down for at least a month to 6 weeks that eliminates 2 of the 3 poisoners.

C Heim/Higashioka/Barnhart
1B Burger/Crim
2B Smith/Foscue
SS Seager/Smith
3B Jung/Smith
LF Langford/Haggerty
CF Haggerty/ Pillar
RF Osuna/Pillar
DH Crim/Smith/Higashioka

Yeah, they don't need Pillar any more, even without Osuna. Haggerty makes Pillar obsolete.

 

[saddles]

Osuna has not been removed from the game, so i doubt he is coming up.

 

[saddles]

Neither Crim nor Harris is in the game, so maybe one of then. Crim would be the most likely, I would think.

From Jeff Wilson:

Broken right hand for Joc Pederson after an HBP on Saturday. The impending IL stint could open the door for Blaine Crim, Dustin Harris or Alejandro Osuna.

Maybe this will reset Joc, but by the time he comes back in may not matter for this season.

Out for 8 weeks.

 

[Kelleyman]

So tough

 

[DTLUNA]

Out for 8 weeks.

Pedersen may now be the man who turns us around by bringing up Crim etc.to DH. Wish him well.

Now maybe he will get some time up with the big club.
