AUG 17-20 Rangers host San Diego

[DT LUNA]

Another series under our belt. Offense and defense has got to improve if we are to win another.

Tatis, Jr. is very scary.

More concerned if they can play defense. They have really looked terrible. The third game against the Rockies could have easily have been a win.

It's a shame that no fans are getting to experience it firsthand, but these are the games we got the roof for. Holy shit, it's been brutal out there.

Living truth.

On the bright side. Without the big bats that we so badly need, it is amazing that we have done so well. Even Gallo has not been up to par with the home runs thus far. So looking at what we have done is really unbelievable to me. Elvis, Odor, Chirinos, Mathis have BA's that have not contributed to our success thus far. But here we are making a run.

we should’ve kept Nelson Cruz until he was no longer effective because guess what? He’d still be on the damn team.

I can’t believe how badly we messed up both Nelson Cruz and hanser Alberto. I wish we had both of them right now.

It would be nice to be able to pick up another Solak and Allard at the deadline, but right now that doesn't look possible. A lot could change in 2 weeks though.

I can't blame management for Alberto.

It’s still a mistake tho. He’s hitting .326 with a .861 OPS and I seem to recall the announcers raved about how great on defense he was.

both odor and Elvis looked very shaky in the field at Colorado.

 

[saddles]

A week ago it was noted that Rendon had started out very slow and had an OPS of .569. Today, his OPS stands at .962. In the last week he has went 8 for 20 with 5 HR.

Elvis is becoming a concern. Oder(Odor) has alwasys been a concern.

I seem to recall everyone on here wanting to be rid of him.

Agree and still feel the same except he would be better than Oder.

 

[saddles]

I will go on record as saying if we get rid of Odor, and he goes on to be an All Star in 3 of the next 4 seasons, it will not have been a mistake for us to get rid of him.

 

[saddles]

Profar is hitting below .200 and he would be better than Odor. Profar has picked it up lately though.

 

[DT LUNA]

Shame of it all is, Solak is a 2b and Oder is not and Management won't act.
