Series Thread: Rangers Host the Angels For Three Games August 20-22

Time to call up O’Hoppe. He can’t do any worse than these sad sacks.

Glad I missed this one. Wow, one hit.

I would call up Dreiling too. I’ve seen enough of Carter.

The Mariners keep hanging around. From the opposite perspective, the Astros do too.

Carter batting .154 with .404 OPS in August. Hard to keep sending him up to the plate.

So, in the wildcard race:

Toronto 81-81
Cleveland 81-81
Minnesota 81-81
Texas 78-84
Detroit78-84
Baltimore 78-84

That is the way I see it unfolding, as of now.

I guess I will add Seattle to this exercise. I will say they finish at 80-82.

O'Hoppe was removed in the 5th inning tonight. He had been the DH. That makes me wonder if he is coming up.

Hopefully they decided they have seen enough of this incompetence that they will give him a try. We need Jung back too.

I think they removed Osuna as well.

From Scott Lucas:

O'Hoppe pulled mid-game from DH duties in El Paso. Didn't appear to be in hi-five line after win. El Paso cameras gave some views of dugout and I I didn't see him there either. Not saying it's something, but not not saying.

 

[saddles]

I think they removed Osuna as well.

Yeah he came out in the 6th. Could be a double move or since Osuna has been used at 1B some, he could be a just-in-case for Burger if he has to be DLed.

With you on this big time

Grom Scott Lucas:

Cam Cauley is hitting .370/.438/.778 in six games since returning to Round Rock.

 

[Senator_fan]

O’Hoppe up. Kelenic down.
DH today.

 

[Duane1952]

O’Hoppe up. Kelenic down.

Actually Kelenic DFA’d. Hope not to see him in a Rangers uniform again.

 

[saddles]

Duran will be in CF today

 

[saddles]

Both Osuns and Peoples are with the Rangers, but no roster moves for them yet.

 

[saddles]

From Jeff Wilson:

#Rangers are waiting to hear more on Jake Burger’s availability before putting together a lineup for today. Feel free to read into in-games moves last night by Round Rock.

From The Hickory Crawdads:

Josh Owens gets his first pitching appearance in the series finale!
