Series Thread: Rangers Invade the Bay of Pigs and Hope To Rebound - April 17-19

Just when you thought you'd pick up Derek Holland in FB, he shits the bed

Yeah, the Yankees are hammering him. I was watching this start to see if I should pick him up or not . Guess not.

Looks like Profar is starting to lay claim to the LF job

Kinda see it the same but what do you see when Beltre gets back? I think Gallo wins the LF job. Think DDJ goes down to RR. How Bannister uses Profar and Rua is anyone's guess.

Look for the Rangers to take 2 out of 3 at the Smelliseum.

How can you be so confident after watching this team lately?


However, I will acknowledge that the pitching matchups are much better in this series. The Rangers really got a bad draw with a rare awesome start from king Felix against the Rangers, Paxton was dominant, and the iwakuma game was winnable, but he still makes me concerned because he has a great track record against us. I guess you could say I'm expecting to get 1 game and hoping to get 2.

Good at bat Cargo. Duane will like that

 

[PhantomWarrior]

That's right Holland is pitching for Chicago.

 

[DT LUNA]

Great ab Maz

Napoli is so bad right now. Not even close on one of those pitches.

 

[Bmurph]

Napoli better hit 35 HR's cause thats all youre gonna get from him, probably

 

[Bmurph]

Napoli is so bad right now. Not even close on one of those pitches.

Gotta be someone else in the 4 spot by now and Odor is almost as bad as Nap

 

[Bmurph]

I picked him up in one league, yeah Im a dumbass

That hot start got odor all messed up. He started liking that long ball too much.

 

[Bmurph]

Another garbage AB by Odor with runner on 3rd

 

[Bmurph]

If we only get one run here, that is gonna be piss poor

 

[Bmurph]

Yup piss poor

 

[romeo212000]

Lucroy not real spectacular right now either. Middle of the order really shit the bed there.

 

[DT LUNA]

Wasred a good chance at more funs

 

[DT LUNA]

Slow hook

 

[Bmurph]

The leadoff walk rate is fucking ridiculous for this pitching staff

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Napoli is so bad right now. Not even close on one of those pitches.

Slotting him in cleanup is just fucking dumb.

 

[DT LUNA]

Heads up Elvis
