Of course based on recent history a pass is in order but it is reported that his velo is up to 93 and some are offering a MLB deal. We shall see. Wonder how he looks

I'll give it the old college try.

Let me understand what you're wanting here... when you open your browser, you want SportsHoopla to pop up automatically?

Yes and no. ha

It's always opened to the site just fine. But before I got this new one, it automatically took me to the Ranger site. Now I get to the SportsHoopla page and have to scroll down to get to MLB/Rangers.

Not the biggest of problems for honestly. Just a little inconvenient is all.

Easiest solution (for me, also using Chrome) is to just bookmark "sports hoop.la/forums/texas-rangers.255/" into the Bookmark Bar that runs across the top of the window (but take out the space)

That's me too. Leave plugged in and do not turn the power off and it will open to the last thing watched.

Worked like a charm. You're a gentleman and a scholar. :clap:

So who gets cut from the roster to make room for Lincecum?

With all of these starting pitchers I think they are finally agreeing with Winding's idea of having 10 starting pitchers. Unfortunately, since he hasn't posted here in a couple of years I am not sure he is still alive to enjoy it.

Lincecum will be a bullpen piece, not a starter. I think there's about 7 guys fighting for 2 roster spots, Timmy is just another competitor.

I rank us acquiring a 2010 Giants pitcher right up there with the Cowboys acquiring Deion and Owens. Who are we going to go after next, Freese?

Lincecum and Bartolo

Probably gives us the most goofy looking pitching staff in the mlb.
