Valdez wanted none of Trout

It was clearly a blister on his thumb, he had already looked down at it twice TR

There lineup for the most part has been miserable. Pitching around him is a smart thing to do.

Yeah in a 1-2 count I was sure hoping he didnt go with a fastball over the plate cause it would have been Trout's 2nd HR of the day

Boys, I just don't feel real good about IKF.

Certainly felt better about him last year.......But that AB sucked out loud.

I don't think the Rangers did him or themselves any good by moving him to catcher full time.

When he was playing UIF he was hitting the ball with authority. Once they started putting him in as a catcher things seemed to change. Catching can wear you down especially if it was not your original position. But we do need a 3b down the line.

Exactly. Even that game winning hit was total garbage last night but we will take it.

Ump didnt help with that walk, missed strike call

 

[Nightcrawler]

I’m not too bummed out about palumbo.

Admittedly, I was a lot more excited to see Burke pitch today.

August 31st is Star Wars night for the rangers.

They are handing out bobble heads of fan favorite Roogie Odor as a stormtrooper.

It totally fits! Stormtroopers in Star Wars couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn.

Are you gonna be there?

Would probably be sitting first base side and try to throw my odor bobble head at odor while he’s trying to catch a pop up. It would probably somehow increase his chances of catching it.

So much for Calhoun not striking out much. Think that is at least 3 in his last 4 AB's. Guess I need to switch it back over to Gunsmoke.

 

[donaldson79]

Calhoun K's by swinging at ball 3 and 4.

The Rangers seem to have a habit of discovering "flash in the pan" players.

Glad you caught the game today
