From Jared Sandler:

TRIVIA

Tony Gwynn famously never struck out more than 40 times in a season.

There are THREE players in Rangers history who have completed a season as a qualifier with fewer than 40 strikeouts on multiple occasions.

Who are they?

Mickey Rivers is probably one of them.

Is Lowe back on your wagon?

 

[saddles]

Lowe is having a great stretch right now.

 

[saddles]

Mickey Rivers is probably one of them.

Yes, he is. 1980 and 1981

I guessed one of the other two.

Kohl Drake has been one of our pitching prospect bright spots this year. He pitches for Hickory this evening. This will be his second start since being promoted. His first start went very well.

From Shawn McFarland:

Today’s Josh Jung update: it’s day-to-day, and he hasn’t swung a bat since his last rehab game. He said there’s a “tenderness,” and basically right now they’ll test it every day and take it from there.

From Jeff Wilson:

There's no new fracture and the plate and screws are secure. But there is swelling and soreness near a bone was that shattered into seven pieces.

Frim Jeff Wilson:

Tyler Mahle (Tommy John) is through two innings at @rrexpress in his first rehab start. Needed only 19 pitches for six outs. Top fastball velocity was 93.5 mph. Wouldn't be surprised if he's done tonight.

 

[saddles]

A double for Heim. Watch out if Jonah and Lowe both get hot at the same time.

 

[DT LUNA]

Leody eating all his spinich.

 

[saddles]

Davalillo is another lower level prospect having a great year.

 

[saddles]

Josh Smith!

 

[DT LUNA]

Smith POY

 

[DT LUNA]

We may have our 1B.

Play of year

Wow Impressive

The Rangers need to win 2/3 of their remaining schedule to win 90 games…I’m thinking that’s what they need to do to make the post season.

 

[gregrey972]

With help coming and guys starting to hit better…it’s doable!

What’s gotten into Lowe and Taveras.

Foscue is healthy.

Carter is getting healthy.

Hill was great over the weekend.
