runner at second, nobody out....we didn't move him an inch....the opposing pitcher tried to help out with the WP.....


We are just not a very good team right now, in all facets...

So we fall to the bottom of the division good lord, JD assembled a gem this year!!

Just 11 games in relax. I don't like some of the things happening either but its a 162 game season and roller coaster.

A lot of top players injured and a lot of baseball still to go, but so far it's been a lot of what we saw last season. Yu receiving no run support, poor fielding, and a lot of failure in clutch situations.

This team should be a lot better once everyone is healthy. I'm not going to worry until all of the regulars are heathy.

Add poor base running to this list...we are constantly beating ourselves with really boneheaded running errors...

I would love to hear the reasoning behind pitching I Altuve with 1st and 2nd open w/ 1 out with Carter on deck. That makes no sense. You set up the double play

I went crazy when Choice hit the HR. I got up to get food and piss when they scored the 5 runs. I think the Scheppers experiment should be over. He had given up 17 hits in 9 IP (before tonight.) He seems to struggle when someone get on base. I couldn't believe Rios got thrown a 3rd w/ a lefty t the plate trying to steal 3rd w/ no outs. This team is playing like they aren't being coached.

Reminds me of another rangers starter...Derek Holland is his name.

The poor in game decisions override his ability to relate to the players and rally them. I'm not sure he even does that very well either. They don't do the little things anymore and their execution blows.

That was my first game, I didn't know some players, that was a little strange. Loved the Choice HR.

anyway, it's early.

I won't lie, it was pretty tough to watch, but obviously some key pieces are missing.
I have some catching up to do
