UT Tyler in the house there, nice to represent

I will be glad to get Kela back. With all this time off he should really be amped up.

How great is that? This is a kid I could not have told ya his name - much less how to pronounce it, ha - until last season.

Love his abilities, upside, and attitude. He's a perfect compliment to our 25 man roster.

I guess Machado will be missing a few games for his punch of Ventura but he did what he needed to do.

Didn't land it clean like Roogie, watch him only get 3 games or something

With Dyson unavailable and Yu likely still on a pitch limit, we might have to steal an inning from a spare like Wilhelmsen or Ramos tomorrow before we get to Bush and Barnette to close it out (assuming we need a closer). Maybe the Ranger bats will go crazy tomorrow and we can end the game comfortably with our mop-up guys.

Ramos has been pretty effective in the long man role, might be able to give 2-3 innings

Do we all think that Profar can handle 1st base now?

Odor needs to create a YouTube video on the proper technique for landing a good blow to the head of an opposing player during a game.

Glad our guys and Bennie could get it done there tonight

Boy....I don't know Wastin.

One game is not so much to judge by.....But if you gotta do so,,,,he looked like a REALLY GOOD BASEBALL PLAYER to me. ha

Thank you gents for your time and pleasure. Getting late. Peace and out

pretty textbook right hand from a baseball player, I still think he might have some boxing in his background

Glad your internet held up, didn't want another pissed DT tonight

Glove wise yes, footwork and other 1b nuance wise it's going to be a circus at times

His long arms help mitigate his lack of height some

It's always a group thing ain't it? ha ha ha

These are pretty good times to be Ranger fans, that's for sure.

But I do ask that all of us take a deep breath and remember......the "dog days" are a long way, away.

it was better than watching Prince at 1B last night

He made some very athletic moves tonight. Enough for me to not be worried about him long term.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

I am not real comfortable with him but there is not too many guys in our pen I am other than Dyson, Diekman and Bush. I am hoping that Tolleson with time off and not being a closer will get his act together and help us.

It would be great to see old Tolley back.

 

[donaldson79]

All kidding aside...darrlyMAN, you're "on point" sir.

Tomorrow............

Lets just hope they keep playing good baseball and the winning streaks are longer than the losing streaks. Streaks happen!

Agreed, but the footwork was painful to watch at times
