Rangers back at the Grill for a set against the Halos: LAA @ TEX 6/12-15

Meanwhile, Cole Winn had another really bad start.

Any more bad news?

Unless he is as loyal to them as he has been to Grossman.

Well, it's not apples to apples IMO, since one bad hitter can't wreck an entire lineup like bad starting pitching can wreck an entire team, and Bochy knows that.

2nd base runner for us on a walk

 

[Bmurph]

Pathetic Grossman

 

[Kelleyman]

And Josh S sits. This needs to be reversed

 

[Kelleyman]

Five hits and four walks in 3.2 innings from Heaney is grotesque.

Heaney did not pass the eye test and got bailed out bases loaded twice

 

[scotsman1948]

Break out the champagne Semien got a hit

This is what Bochy had to say about Grossman back in early to mid March. These excerpts are from a couple of different articles.


""He’s tightening things up from the left side," Bochy said. "The leg kick is not as big [and] he looks good. Robbie is a pro. Came into camp in great shape and helps extend our lineup. Good discipline at the plate and saw [on Saturday] how he can drive the ball.”'


"Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy made the obvious clear on Sunday — Robbie Grossman is going to get the majority of the playing time in left field in the regular season."

"Grossman, signed last month by the Rangers as a free agent, had gotten the majority of that playing time in left field since Spring Training games began, but Bochy hadn’t made a public declaration on the position for the regular season."

"He took that step on Sunday, saying he is happy with Grossman this spring."

'“He’s the guy that’s going to get the lion’s share of the playing time there,” Bochy said."

Here you go guys

Bochy may change his mind

Bochy may change his mind

Here we are 3 months later and he appears to think the same thing. Just imagine how much more playing time a good three game stretch could win Grossman even if Bochy is considering benching him.

The only way this ends is for the front office to trade for a veteran LF who is known to be much better than Grossman when Grossman is at his best.

Fack you ump…

Yet, if Josh Smith has one or two hitless games in a row he is benched for weeks.

Just once I'd like to see a hitter lay down a bunt with the bases loaded and only one out.

 

[Bmurph]

These guys look like total shit….

 

[DT LUNA]

Heim that was awful

At some point gotta try small ball with bases loaded.
