9 hits one run to show for it. Come on Rangers you are better than this.

Yep. JD definitely has some work to do.

I don't see them doing much in the offseason. May try to make Moreland an offer or keep Gomez or Desmond but I don't see a whole lot of big FA signings. Need to add to the rotation to replace Holland and Perez really but I don't think you will see much. The current players got them a AL West division crown but they haven't played well enough to win playoff games in a month or more

If he does, we still have to throw that mental midget Perez out there.
Our offense is our biggest problem, whomever is pitching

I swear the plate is 4 inches wider for their pitchers today

maybe Desmond swinging at ball 4 and stroking it for a double will get something started

I would like to see the pitch tracker on the big score and let the ump call from there.

He was safe, probably wont get the call but should have been going on contact and not hesitated

Don't see them signing Desmond. He is going to want a long term deal. If your going to get a pitcher, you're going to have to make a trade. Free agent starting pitching pickings are going to be slim this off season.

Which means JD tries a trade for starting pitching. Two avenues. One r*pe our farm one last time for Sale or someone else. Second trade MiL position prospects for MiL pitching prospects.

Not many options but I trust JD will get something done. Plus...this series ain't over yet. Not giving up on them. Will stay to the past pitch.

Good job Bushie. Giving your team another chance. Have to say with the exception of Deik scrapping the bed yesterday the pen is nails.

He will do something/s but I don't think there will be much in the way of big name FA impact players added in the offseason. I don't really want to give up the entire farm for Sale either when the offense really needs to be better to win games anyway. Ill be here until the last pitch, but its hard to have a ton of faith still when they aren't playing even close to good enough to win games at this point
