Feel Your pain. Bad day in the windy city.

The Mariners got whooped by the lowly Angels this weekend. They only scored 2 runs over 3 games and got swept. Lets hope the Mariners offense doesn't wake up until we leave

It's our offense that needs to wake up.

The only thing consistent about the M's offense is their inconsistency. They seem to either score 6+ runs per game, or 0-2 runs per game. Very rarely is there anything in between. The bullpen is the 2nd worst in baseball behind the Lastros. The M's record against TX is obviously an anomaly so far this season, and it will even itself out as the season closes out.

Thank goodness for Houston and Anaheim. They have helped the Rangers go from being 2 games over .500 to 20. 22-4 VS those two and 53-51 vs everyone else. Thanks Astros and Angels.

@gfraley: Neftali Feliz goes two innings for first time on rehab assignment with Triple-A Rock Rock. No baserunners. More at Dallas-Fort Worth News, Sports, Entertainment, Weather and Traffic - The Dallas Morning News

The a's have a lot of thanking to do as well.

That is utter dominance vs two teams. It may very well win the division. Angels wanted to alter the landscape of the West with those big signings...They have, but not in the way they wanted.

As long as the White Sox, Cubs, Brewers, Indians, Blue Jays, Royals, and Twins aren't in the post season I think Texas has a pretty fair shot! haha

Good on ya. Was at the RR game. They won 9-2. Kirkman pitched 5scoreless innings then ran out of gas in the 6th giving up a 2run homer. Finished the inning strong. Gun got up to 90 for him a few times. I think he Kd 4-5. Then Feliz came in and pitched two scoreless innings. A couple of Ks and don't remember if he gave up a hit or not. Had a couple of hangers that went for a ride but stayed in the ballpark. Gun got up to 92 but seemed to me he focused more on the off speed pitches. Wilmer Font came in the 9th and was throwing smoke with great control. 3 up three down for him. We will probably see Font in the call up.

The Ms have won 10 from the A's.

Excited about Feliz. They will be much needed call-ups next week. Hope Berkman can help.

Dug up this tweet from yesterday:

24 Aug[/ame] Lance Berkman just did some running on the warning track. Ron Washington said that Berkman could go out for rehab games soon. [URL="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Rangers&src=hash"]#Rangers
