Pretty far removed from those 2010-2011 team's successes

Guess the bandwagon broke down

Anyone else surprised to see Gonzalez land in the rotation at the expense of little Nicky?

I thought Martinez started twice and did fine, he just didn't receive any run support.

I'm blaming my Volunteers for my absence tonight. ha Lordy, we looked sad, especially on the D-side of the ball.

Be back for the Rangers tonight. Hope I'm still welcome.

Good observation, and question.

Not really, no. Gonzalez is a better option and Nick is more suited to a long relief role, which is desperately what the bullpen needs right now.

All are welcome in an Ephland thread.

Calhoun can play defense too.

Once an untouchable prospect, Jurickson Profar is now the Rangers' piece that just doesn't fit

After lengthy consideration.........hell yes

There is a fit at second base, but that would require admitting a very big mistake that was made when they gave Odor that contract. The contract trumps common sense.

That's a higher estimation of what Profar brings to the table than I have.

He just needs to move on. If he can stay healthy, he should make someone a good shortstop.
