I'm not sure about you... but I am thrilled to be contending for the West every season as compared to the alternative which was the Rangers I grew up watching and still loving back then.

The 80's were horrible to say the least. Lost 99 games one year.

It'd be great to knock a's Straily out of the game.. But I'll take getting his count high...his pitch count is getting up there. Make it go higher.

You may be right. But pitching in that 70 degree "heat" probably allows for a longer outing. Nice inning from Holland.

Oakland gets all the lucky breaks... Should've been a double

I'd be enjoying this race much more if it wasn't for game six in 2011. Sorry.

I am too. But our offense struggling against the white sox and twins is unacceptable. We have some dead weight on the offensive side that needs to go . We have the pitching, but you cannot expect them to throw shut outs every game.

31 innings 4 total runs, don't see us all of a sudden snapping out of it in Oakland, Colon then Parker next 2 nights, hopefully we can do something against the Angels. And pray Houston can do something against the A's

Offense is still " on break".... Has been non-existent since the last game in Seattle

Sorry for the negativity, but in today's starting lineup our # 1 and # 9 hitters are close to being automatic outs. Tough to have a good offensive day with this.

Fine, Derek. They don't need help.
