Rangers Trade Rumors/Deadline Thread

[WastinSomeTime]

Looks like our future OF for the remainder of the season out there tonight.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

That is not a wild pitch.

Wrong thread

Damn, I walk in to see we've had an offensive avalanche.

Hope I'm not gonna jinx it.

 

[donaldson79]

Gallo isn't your future 3B anyway

I'm not positive the organization feels the same as you.

 

[donaldson79]

The Astro's have hit 4 HR's tonight in 6 innings against the A's.

Now, come on EA. Let's have a really productive night, right here, right now.

He's only playing there now to put him in a comfort zone while his bat develops, he's destined for RF

Its unreal to me that the dodgers are going after a pitcher. They have the best pitching in baseball by far. They should be going for a bullpen arm or a second baseman or something. The rich get richer

 

[terpsfball09]

btw Luis Ortiz has been looking solid so far. 4 appearances still hasnt given up a run

they added darwin barney today, who can't bat his weight but plays great defense

 

[TheRangerDude]

Nope, I see this team contending next year

I'm not going say anything till they show they can stay healthy. I mean we even got back up back ups going down... I know we are pretty much numb to it now buts its still at crazy rate.

I hope this offseason, the FO takes a really hard look at their strength and conditioning program and invests some time, energy, and money into improving it.

Must be convinced they will lose Greinke by the end of next year.

Really? Explain how better conditioning would have had an effect on Holland falling over his dog, or Perez having TJ surgery, or Adduci breaking his finger (twice) please.

How about Profar getting hurt in his sleep, Harrison's bad back, Kouzmanoff's bad back for 8 years, or Ogando who has been an injury in waiting since 2010? Moreland's foot had nothing to do with conditioning, nor did the fact Fielder showed up hurt.

Honestly don't think it's an internal conditioning problem. And keep in mind, Beltre has been the healthiest he's been in several seasons.

Just a bunch of terrible luck and crazy bullshit hitting us at exactly the same time.

Exactly. People just looking for someone to blame for bad luck.

Think of it as the baseball gods getting some payback after having a really great run of things. Back to back world series a lot of stuff needs to go right. Now all the stuff that didn't go wrong those years is all hitting at once.

We had a great run at things, but that doesnt mean we did so without bad luck. 2010 probably was a bit lucky pitching rotation wise, but besides that we were just flat out playing good baseball with a damn good team.

it's the Curse of Nolan Ryan

I've decided that my 3 favorite teams for Rios that I think we match up the best with are Balt (nelly would have to move so maybe not) Pittsburgh, and KC (even though reports say they arent a good fit)

Pirates have so many good prospects that it would be tough NOT to get a good one from them. KC's got Zimmer and Manaea, and Balt's got Harvey, Bundy, Gaus, and many more.

If I'm JD, I'm getting a deal going with the pirates. There are so many acceptable players that they have...
