Series Thread: Rangers Host the White Sox For Three Games July 20-22

Is there anyone on here that had victory plus that has cancelled their subscription. How do you go about it. I only got victory plus to watch ranger games. Don’t care about anything else on their app.

From Evan Grant:

ARLINGTON – BZZR’s app is inching closer to having DVR functionality, which would allow customers to record and pause games.
“It is a high priority for BZZR’s tech team,” Rangers vice president of broadcasting Angie Swint told The Dallas Morning News. “It should be pretty soon.”
BZZR has also informed the Rangers it is pushing all possible levers to get the app into Roku’s store, with “early to mid-August,” being the likely arrival time. BZZR has apparently delivered the technology to Roku, but there is a process for getting the app into the store. For the time being, it’s recommended for subscribers to “cast” or “airplay” the stream from a mobile device to the television.

Swint said the great majority of former Victory+ users have Roku technology for their streaming platform and that’s where the biggest priority has been made.
Also, the Rangers are aware that some subscribers have requested refunds from Victory+ without getting satisfaction. The Rangers have “strongly encouraged” Victory+ to refund subscribers, but the Rangers have not been a party to the contracts between fans and Victory+.

Congratulations to John Taylor on his promotion to Round Rock. This time last year he was still 4 weeks away from his first game in the minor leagues.

Overall, Taylor struggled in his first 4 weeks at AAA, but he seems to have made the necessary adjustments and is doing great now. He is 17 for his last 41(.515).

He may force his way into the Rangers plans if he keeps this up. He can play all 4 IF positions and has even played a little in the OF.

If the Rangers became sellers he would certainly see some action this year for the Rangers. If not, he may force his way into the picture, anyway.

What to do with Cam
Cauley and Osuna while having the other 3 OF guys

I suppose they go down again and wait for injuries to occur again.
Seems two of the three OF's stay hurt often.

Thats a good point.

After today's 4 for 5 John Taylor is now 21 for his last 46(.457).

His slash line in that time is.

.457/.510/.609/1.119

It did not take long for Jordan Lawrenz of roundtable sports to link the Rangers to a possible fire sale by the SanFran Giants. He mentions the often rumoured Luis Arraez to the Rangers for Dalton Pence and Yolfran Castillo.
If that happens I dont think it stops there. Dont be shocked If Robbie Ray and or Erik Miller get tossed in as well or on a seperate deal. CY may not be able to help himself

Cauley may stay since he can play CF.

Erik Miller has 20 walks in 29 innings. That would drive me nuts. Ray has many good moments but not enough to trash our minor league system even more and we sure don't need Arraez.

From The Prospect Times:

Dylan Dreiling currently has a 10-game hit-streak. During this time he's slashed .395/.422/.698/1.120 with 2 HRs, 5 RBI, 2 BB.

He could be traded for a set up man.

MIller has had control issues every year in his short career. I think with Lopez and Foscue playing well that Arraez would not even be in a discussion.
I have never heard of this writer but nothing would surprise me with CY.

He has been hot lately. Really feeling good about him Walcott, Disla, Perich and Morrobel

 

[Senator_fan]

Well, for the good of the longterm health of the organization it sure would be good if Seattle has a 4 game sweep in them for this next series.

That’s the only thing that could keep CY from being a buyer. But then he’ll rationalize that the team is still in it no matter what and make even dummer trades.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Seattle may put Hancock on the trading block. Not a free agent until 2031.

 

[saddles]

Detroit keeps creeping up on that third wildcard spot.

 

[saddles]

Only 4 of the Frisco 6 played this evening. Walcott and Moore were off. The other guys went 7 for 18 with 3 doubles(2 from Morrobel and 1 from Disla) and 1 HR from Dreiling. Perich put up an 0 for 5.
