Series Thread: Rangers to prey on Twins at Target Field

[DT LUNA]

It sucks to be the rooster right now. How do we get 10 more outs without using anyone good?

good lord this one has gotten out of hand. No mercy rule?

A white sox win would take a lot of the sting out of this.

Good thing we're not playing a good team.

You've lost it. I did have hope but no hope left. Your bread just ain't done.

I see no reason at all not to make several moves from Frisco/Round Rock to Arlington tomorrow. Do you?

Why not send any combination of Chi Chi/Luke/Ramos down and call up - pick a pitcher - and give them at least a chance between now and the AS break, to show they're stuff and get the ML experience?

Take Holaday with them, and call up 2-3-4 pitchers and see what happens.

You had hope. Really? When exactly was that?

You're scaring me sir.

 

[WilltheThrill]

How bout you just worry about the fucking Rangers, dip shit?

Dude, this is uncalled for. I get it that it gets a bit old worrying about the other division teams. But there's no need to rip into someone who's clearly a passionate Rangers fan just wanting the team to win the division. Calling somebody a dipshit just because he wants the Astros to lose is a bit much.

You need to finish the quote

Hamels/Griffin/Perez in Boston. Gotta like this.

And they will turn it around tomorrow. They were embarrassed today, I'm sure.

Our only 3 current ML starters. At this point we just need competent (not even necessarily good) pitchers who can eat 1-2 innings without giving up multiple runs each time out. Gonzalez, Ramos, and Jackson don't belong anywhere near an ML field.

I thought Hamels was going tomorrow.

Think you're right, Crawler. Means Nick pitches Monday. Dang!

Well Cole gives us a chance at another series.

 

[donaldson79]

Could swear our "Crackerjack" announcing team just said that was our starters in NE. Perhaps I should have quoted my sources. ha

Just looked on the ESPN schedule and you're correct, Hamels tomorrow. Nick/Griffin/Perez in Boston.

And honestly, I'm not hanging on everyone word today so I could have easily misunderstood. No sense in throwing rocks at our "Crackerjack" announcing team than they earn, eh? ha ha ha

For some reason, I've become the board scapegoat / punching bag. I think it's funny. It's not like these people are upsetting me, I'm not some teeny bopper whose going to hang myself because of " cyber bullying". I have a good life, I have a great job, an amazing girlfriend, and nothing to be ashamed of. I am in no way implying that these other people don't have the same thing. I just sense that this team is vulnerable right now without Darvish, Holland, and Lewis. I really don't want the Astros to go on a huge run before the break. If the Rangers lose their lead in the division, it would put a damper on what has been a great first half of the season for this team.
