Sborz is starting his rehab in Frisco. He recently received an injection near his shoulder and has been throwing.

The Orioles did to Houston what Houston had been doing to others the last few weeks and came behind late in the game to beat the Astros last night and today.
Just mentioning it because of my hatred of the Astros.

One more year of Jon Gray unless we can trade him. Lucky us.

Gray sucked tonight but the most asinine thing I have ever seen is how every year the Rangers bullpen is mostly a complete shit show and year after year they continue to sit on their hands and not do a damn thing about it

It amazes me how many folks will say they don't really want the Rangers to spend on the bullpen. When I mentioned needing to spend money on the bullpen in the offseason, Adam Morris told me today, "I’m not real interested in spending money on the pen."

How can you follow this team as close as he does and have an opinion like that? That just blows my mind.

Apparently he likes to see the team lose games in the 6-9th inning. I for one am tired of seeing that crap

I will not be surprised if at season end, all the guys on the team. not named Seager could be hitting below .250

Sborz pitched a third of an inning for Frisco tonight. He threw 21 pitches and gave up 3 runs.

I think he doesn't feel he can want them to spend on the bullpen until they do. Some fans are like that. They think every plan the front office executes is the right plan, no matter how many times they fail in executing a successful plan.

110-122

That's the Rangers record after that second game against the Cardinals in June of last year.

It almost seems as if the team quit on Bochy after that point, but when they somehow still made the postseason, they played like they are capable and then some.

Teodo had a bad outing and it bumped his ERA up to 2.00.

If the Rangers go 30-2 from here in out, they can match last years record. Lol

I sure would have liked for him to have gotten a few more starts for Round Rock before coming up.

He sure wasn't ready when he came up earlier this year and I dont think bringing him up to get shelled like he did then will benefit him at all in the way of confidence. He needs to be ready to get outs at he MLB level when he comes back up
