No More "Bullpen Failure" - maybe
Let's see if the Rangers can recover against the lowly A's.
Let the Evan Carter era begin.

It seems something has mentally effected this team. Not sure they can recover but certainly hope so. Wouldn't it be nice to have a sit down question and answer session with some players?Let's see if the Rangers can recover against the lowly A's.

I don’t think even they know or understand what’s happening or could express it in words. Watch them before the games they just stand around on the field and in the dugout they just have blank looks on their faces. There’s not the same camaraderie and playfulness.It seems something has mentally effected this team. Not sure they can recover but certainly hope so.

I remember prior to Banny being fired there was some talk from some in the media, about some problems in the clubhouse. To me, from the outside, that seems to be the case much more now, than it did when Banny was here.It seems something has mentally effected this team. Not sure they can recover but certainly hope so.

I think so too. Obvious Bochy mistakes may have effected the guys. I said earlier, players see and know what we know.I remember prior to Banny being fired there was some talk from some in the media, about some problems in the clubhouse.

I have no idea.So, what are we hoping to get out of Evan Carter in the team's last 23 games? I am hoping for the following.
Games starting: 17
Plate Appearances: 68
Average: .250
Doubles: 2
Triples: 1
HR: 1
SO: 12
BB: 6
SB: 3
think we bring in a good hitting of'er this off season: maybe Bellinger. opening day of should be Carter, Bellinger & Garcia with Langford coming up after the trade deadline. then Langford, Carter & Bellinger. should be but probably won't happen
If and when we are eliminated from postseason, would definitely have some of these guys up here evaluating them. Whats to lose?In 2025 I wouldn't mind seeing a lineup that includes Carter, Langford and Ortiz. In 2026 we could add Walcott to that.
Don't leave Vargas and Guitterez out of the conversation, as well.
Some team is going to really like what they get with Crim as well, but most likely it won't be us.
I doubt we get eliminated before the last week of the season, though.If and when we are eliminated from postseason, would definitely have some of these guys up here evaluating them. Whats to lose?
If they fix the bullpen right, they most likely won't have anything in the budget left for offense.Bellinger has probably priced himself out of the Rangers reach. Some team will overpay him. Just don't see us backing up the truck for a 1b/dh .
With the bull pen fixed right, more wins will come. Not saying we don't need OF bats.If they fix the bullpen right, they most likely won't have anything in the budget left for offense.
how much do they have to spend?If they fix the bullpen right, they most likely won't have anything in the budget left for offense.
