Yup. Lowe is so frustrating to watch. You see he has the stuff to be absolutely dominant, but he hands the long ball out like peanuts at a bar. Lowe could still bring something in trade though. I doubt Feldman does.

When Feliz is ready to return ... and the decision is to bring him back to the bullpen ... then the decision is going to be between Lowe and Tateyama. Never have thought very much of Lowe.

I know you haven't. In fact you've been overly critical of him at times in my opinion. However, Tateyama is probably the better choice he is effective and brings a different look.

this is unacceptable

another lopsided crap game

and no hits

looks like another trade deadline is necessary to fix some leaks in the roster

I'd like to see Darvish pitch here.

He could get a no hitter.

Who was the losing pitcher in Game 6?

Agree ... I think Tateyama had a strategic DL assignment at the end of camp in order for TEX to have the opportunity to make a decision on Lowe.

Who in THE heck is this Parker character?

...and why are we giving him a no-hitter?

Yeah. We are giving him a no no.

How about Hamilton make him throw pitches and stop chasing.

If he wants to blow out his arm throwing 140 pitches, so be it.

More patience would be nice.

Josh has transformed from an unreal beast to a strikeout machine in 3 just 3 weeks.

Careful with that kind of talk around here Stinky. Some here think that claiming that Rangers give away things like games, at-bats, no-hitters, etc. is just a weak excuse. Never mind that Nolan Ryan was just quoted as saying the Rangers handed the Angels 2 games.

Pretty funny when a fan highlight is the highlight for us.

And to no one's surprise, ESPN has no mention whatsoever of Parker's in-progress no-hitter. They had a highlighted headline advertising Santana's in-progress no-hitter as early as the 6th inning.

Their East coast bias is sickening. Thankfully this time it helps the Rangers.

Now they finally have a secondary link to the no-hitter. Haha.

If I'm Wash: No swings until he throws a called strike.

To every hitter from here on out.
