Series Thread: Rangers on the Road to Face Pirates May 22-24

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Wonder if Duran has a minor injury

yes, he does. rib cage.

Dane Acker made his season debut with Hickory today. Vanasco did so last night with Frisco. Glad to see those guys healthy again.

best case scenario for postseason is Heim and Garver, as far as C goes. but i remain of the opinion that C is the lowest priority for now and then.

bullpen, bullpen, bullpen.

Lowest priority is fine, as long as it isn't overlooked. Starting pitching being a priority was fine in the offseason, but it shouldn't have led to the bullpen being overlooked.

Duran felt something in his side in his last at bat.

Emiliano Teodo sees his first action of the year today for Hickory as well. So three good pitching prospects are back.

nailbiter today

 

[scotsman1948]

nailbiter today

Good 1st inning and then the Rangers went to sleep

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Perez has been good since the 2nd inning.

 

[Kelleyman]

Yep. And that is with Grossman putting up these numbers in May.

.231/.253/.346/.599

And he is 3 for his last 19.

Of course, now he will hit 2 HR and go 4 for 5 today.

.

Nope and nope for Josh S as well

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

wasted chances there.

[scotsman1948]

Finally 5 runners on base in 5th & 6 st and nothing

 

[scotsman1948]

yes, he does. rib cage.

So there was a reason

 

[scotsman1948]

This umpiring crew seems to have issues with us. Lot of wide pitches getting called strikes

 

[saddles]

We need some runs as the pen will have to pitch 2 innings today, most likely.

 

[scotsman1948]

Damn grooved down the middle and Garcia popped it up

 

[saddles]

Perez at 95 pitches through 7. I wonder of they will let him go back out for the 8th.

 

[saddles]

Leclerc warming up

 

[Kelleyman]

Bottom of order SMH
