Our Texas Rangers against the Oakland A's 9/2 -9/4

[Hambombs]

A's the franchise you always wanna be. I think everyone should take notes from the Oakland a's they have the best team on paper. We have to start paying attention more and play as a team not for ourselves

I wasn't a huge fan of the Berkman signing either but I cheer for the team the Ranger put out on the field regardless. It serves no purpose not to do so. I don't think the front office is going to be like... well, TheRangerDude is pissed, we better do something.

They might...give it a try, see what they say :rollseyes:

 

[TheRangerDude]

Better do it before balfour comes in.

Balfour is finally coming back down to earth... he blew a big one the other day

 

[Nightcrawler]

Just saw the box score. The A's put moss in for Crisp? I hope Crisp has to go on the DL so he won't play against us the last 5 games we play them

Not against this offense.

Gosh. So you're just another fallen hero? How disappointing.

I didn't like the signing either. This guys got knees older than Edsels. Actually, my biggest criticism of JD this season.

Like Adduci who's up now. Adduci would be a better DH than Berkman, at least he has legs. Oh yeah Olt is gone. What's up with Kins did he lose his mojo?

I agree. I think Kinsler has lost his mojo, his popup ratio is going up each game.

 

[TheRangerDude]

It really is sad to see our fan bases confidence in this team wax and wane as the moon does. Stand behind your team even when they are struggling.

Wasn't that against the Angels? 3 run homer in the last inning. Then we go to Minn and the rest is history.

It was against the Tigers...

Tepesch is looking good...

I know Kins was hot for most of August, but the pops & his uncharacteristic throw the other day & now 0-4 again...well, he's a true pro he'll get it back.

 

[Hambombs]

I think it was the Tigers

Correct

It was the Tigers, only game they lost in that series.

Hard to have confidence in a team that can't score runs at home or win a series against bottom feeders in the middle of a hectic pennant race

Plus what happened last season also

Let people deal with it how they want. I don't know how else that can be said. I will never be a half glass full person.

.....I'm disappointed beyond disappointed. But Jezz....if you'd told me that: Lewis would not have thrown a pitch, Harrison was inconsequential, Ogando was invisible, let Josh and Nap go in the off season, MY too, Cruz would be suspended for 50, Feliz would only show up in Sept, Murphy completely disappeared, rookie in CF, and yet we'd be contending for a AL division championship, I'd try and take your hard earned money sir.

isn't that a glass half empty thing though. I mean that is a small sample... over all they are still leading the West and should they lose that they would be leading the WC and should win about 94-95 games.

They won't win another 10 games if the offense doesn't pick up. Forget 94 wins scoring less than 3 runs a a game.
