Series Thread: Rangers at that dump in Oakland 6/16-18

[WastinSomeTime]

Ross go back to the minors! To AA. Dang!

Agree. I don't want guys up here on the roster based on what they use to do.

 

[darrylgann]

Yep Ross. You did enough damage.

 

[TheRangerDude]

Man, I wonder what happened to Ross. He used to generally be really dependable out of the pen and at the first of the season he was even starting games well. Like I said before- offense keep that throttle down.

 

[Bmurph]

Not looking for moral victories. Time to take him out. Good call RW.

It was good to remove Colby but not so much going with RR, that's not hindsight either. He had just shit the bed yesterday. Time to send him somewhere he's been awful

I thought the same thing at the time but decided to keep my mouth shut and hope Ross would surprise me.

He has surprised me at how awful he has been, it's tough to do what he's done so far

Afraid Wash won't have the confidence anymore for Colby to go past six.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Oh shit...... I hope we don't blow this thing. I hate losing to Oakland under any circumstances.

 

[Bmurph]

We certainly need to score more runs

 

[Bmurph]

Baker, Cotts, Rowen, Frasor, Soria still in the pen

 

[Duane1952]

Tolleson what are you doing.

 

[Justinkm83]

This one is going to be tough to take.

 

[Duane1952]

Get him out of there.

 

[TheRangerDude]

Man, they better get out of this one and get to the 9th with a lead for Soria

 

[Justinkm83]

Our bullpen is pathetic. Im glad we have Ross, Ogando, Feliz, and Scheppers pitching successfully in the rotation.

 

[Duane1952]

Sit your ass down crisp.

 

[navamind]

I didn't know that the Twins are possibly going to release Kubel, or already have. There are conflicting reports. That seems strange with the deadline approaching. I would think they could get something for him.

Kubel's probably toast... he has a .219/.300/.308 line over the last two seasons (in 466 PA). He hasn't looked any better than last year. Not only that, but Gardenhire was playing him in favor of Josmil Pinto (a much younger player who's held his own and could be a part of the Twins future).

 

[Duane1952]

Good job Neal.

4 perfectly good bullpen arms ruined by the CJ Wilson experiment. Scheppers at least has hope left. I'm afraid the other 3 are toast.

He could just need a change of atmosphere. He's had some good seasons in his career.
