Rangers back out on the road, first stop is Motor City: TEX @ DET 6/16-19

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Currently, the Rangers are the 10th best team in the AL with a .470 winning percentage. Over a season that would give them 76 wins. That is pretty much what we all expected back when the season began wasn't it?

We would draft 12th in 2023 as it stands now.

I had them at 74 wins going into the season, so yeah 76 lines up pretty close.

Newberg politicking for Howard

I really dont care too much. Think he will go back down eventually and someone will need to take the hit. Unlike most I think Howard has a chance if if he gets his head together and learns to minimize the clinkers.
Doubt if he is ready yet
Hearn needs work to if he is to be a starter. Would like to see him dominate in AAA

Is there a reason he's not going past 5 innings? Is that a predetermined cutoff or is his pitch count too high?

 

[scotsman1948]

As well as Ornelas, he’s now hitting .347

we would have to clear multiple 40-man spots to bring up Winn, Crim, Foscue and Ornelas. any thoughts on whom we drop

half the bullpen

half the bullpen

we have to carry 13 pitchers on the roster so we would have to replace them with pitchers. Winn is one who else do we add to the 40 and bring up?

Are all these guys in AAA

No clue but can’t imagine him being too efficient with pitches at this point.
I post a lot of things info only like this. All a big question mark for now as I see it

I was looking at his stats this morning and noticed his good game last night was against the same team that kicked his butt in his last start.

I just want to see Crim, Foscue and Ornelas get promoted to AAA then later in the year maybe drop Culberson and Calhoun and promote a couple

i think they may trade Calhoun and/or Culberson but i doubt they just drop[ them

i think they'd be trade filler at best. don't see them having a lot of value.

That is about all I see . Both are good in that respect.

probably but if you can get something back that's better than eating the rest of their contracts

"getting something back" is relative. they really aren't going to bring anything back on their own.

We already have much of what they could bring back. What is the point?
