Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Cleveland for Three Games September 15-17

It is just hard to believe the same team that went into Toronto and dominated 4 games is playing this bad in Cleveland. Lowe’s single in the 9th was the first base runner for the Rangers since the 5th

We absolutely just wasted that game for no reason. None. LeClerc should never pitch again. Ever.

I agree but Smith was responsible for two base runners that scored.

 

[Kelleyman]

Why was Perez pulled? Our best bullpen pitchers are our long relievers by far. Our 1 inning guys are worthless trash.

He looked afraid to challenge the hitters and walked us to a tough situation
Seems like our short relievers have a hard time going more than one

 

[Kelleyman]

More bad BP decisions by Bochy cost us.

There was not many god choices. Surely not Stratton was an absolute

We needed to score more than one run
Not going far scoring a run a game

Wut? Maybe not next year but our shelf is bare

No reason to pull Perez.

 

[scotsman1948]

I agree but Smith was responsible for two base runners that scored.

And Leclerc was responsible for allowing them to score

 

[Kelleyman]

No reason to pull Perez.

He was losing it and put 2 on last by a walk.
He started nibbling but yeah not a lot of good choices

 

[DT LUNA]

Wut? Maybe not next year but our shelf is bare

Burke was available.

 

[Kelleyman]

Tough loss but the pen Is what it is
The cure for the Rangers are getting more runs scored. Maybe JUng helps and creates another threat
Smith and Duran playing time likely to be decreased a lot soon

 

[Kelleyman]

Burke was available.

So?
He has been as bad as most
Not many tools in the shed
To me it is obvious

Um, not sure what game you were watching, but Perez didn’t walk a single batter. And he wasn’t “losing” anything. He had allowed 2 weak singles, and he had 2 outs.

Ragans let up 3 runs. He’s human.

The shelf of what they are willing to consider is bare.

Who cares. The bullpen is still one of the worst, if not the worst in baseball. That's not changing this season.

Ok no walk. Yuu are right but I watched every pitch. To me I had no problem pulling Perez IMO he was losing it. We needed to score more runs

I am all for bronginf up a guy like Kelly but sometimes a high leverage role to get your feet wet might be a bit much
