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

[Nightcrawler]

That easy.... Man our team is a bunch of losers

 

[RevSader]

I really fucking hate this team. I hate them all 40 of them. Yellow and Gold makes me want to see red.

It's only the first inning and my blood is starting to boil.

OAK playing like they expect to score in those kinds of situations. Rangers are not.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Oh I see now, you don't K with a man on 3rd and less than 2outs, you do hit the ball, and get it in the outfield....gee, that's really interesting...

 

[spicesadie]

Grieve hit nail on head, difference between winning and losing; bringing that man in scoring position home, what is wrong with this team? They are so bad at that statistic.

 

[Windingmywatch]

Not going to get Crisp at the plate ... but everyone on the OAK roster plus Bob Melvin could have scored on that throw. Rios is not a quality RFer. Lacks the arm ... and never seems to be very quick to the ball.

What a foreign concept..... Since ya know our team never does it

1-0 might as well be 10-0 the way it feels right now.

 

[spicesadie]

This freakin' team needs to learn how to hit a sacrifice fly.....

 

[RevSader]

Don't get the dislike for Rios, he hasn't been great but he certainly hasn't been terrible

Probably pressing going to a new team, and seems like he's been playing better recently, Would be nice to see a bit more extra base power, probably needs to look at some footage from last year, I know he's had problems with letting his hands get too low in his stance in the past

Rios is a classic underachiever. Texas got him, so they wouldn't have to go with AAA guy out there every night.

 

[Jbear]

OK only 1 run. Hope Barftolo is hittable again this inning.

I think your dislike for Rios is starting to cause you to see things that aren't there

All the reasons you list in your second paragraph is why I dislike him. He's a replacement value OFer.

[spicesadie]

Wasn't Colon part of that biogenesis crap? Why is he still playing?

Sad, isn't it?

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Beltre has had a terrible series thus far...he needs to get it together...

I'll give you the underachiever part

 

[RevSader]

I'll give you the underachiever part

If he's on the team next year he will be talked about like Murphy is.
