Welcome back Jung

 

[DT LUNA]

Nope.

So we still own Grossman.

So we still own Grossman.

Yep, and Taveras unfortunately.

CY did not rule out Evan Carter being able to play in the postseason.

That would not be wise imo.

CY did not rule out Evan Carter being able to play in the postseason.

I was going to throw that in there as a joke but didn't. You read my mind. But there's not much left up there.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Just irritates me that Bradford is coming out of the pen. Should let him keep starting at AAA to build his stamina up and put him back as a starter. Now it looks like that will not happen this year.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

As soon as I finish typing that he gets bombed. What a bunch of morons.

 

[DT LUNA]

This team is going nowhere this year.

So next season. Doesn’t look like they’re making the playoffs.

 

[Senator_fan]

Cardinals call up starting pitcher Michael McGreevy to make his MLB debut tomorrow.
He’s had problems getting LH batters out.

 

[DT LUNA]

The WS was won with some talent and and considerable amount of luck.
This year we still have some talent but odds say the luck will not be considerable.
It is wrong to think you can repeat when you can not consistantly score runs.
CY should have recognized this. Names in the line up can look good on past performance but can be deceiving in the present. That is where we are.

and there would have numerous posters that would raise all-holy hell about sending him to AAA

 

[Uncle Siggy]

Looks like Evan Carter will miss the remainder of the regular season.

Texas Rangers expect outfielder Evan Carter to miss remainder of regular season

Carter has been out of the Rangers’ lineup since May 26 with back issues.

Looks like he probably needs surgery to clear up this reoccurring problem, best to get it out of the way now so he'll be ready for ST 2025...

 

[Duane1952]

Typical Bochy. Duran comes back, gets a base hit and hits two balls hard and you don’t see him again. Jankowski is an automatic out as it gets.

 

[Senator_fan]

Kelly in instead of Heim who can bat left. No Grossman, I’m shocked.

Arrenado 0-7 and Pham 1-10 against Heaney. The rest he pretty much hasn’t faced.

well i guess he could have played Taveras in CF unless you want Duran there

Langford in CF and either Duran or Smith in left. The Rangers need offense, you’re not going to get that from Jankowskl or Taveras.

not arguing but this team has NO offense. every once in a while, they produce but there are usually days and days between them, and it doesn't matter who they play at what position. they should bench ALL the regulars and play whoever is left. Smith isn't hitting. Seager isn't. Semien isn't. Langford isn't. Garcia definitely isn't

 

[saddles]

Typical Bochy. Duran comes back, gets a base hit and hits two balls hard and you don’t see him again. Jankowski is an automatic out as it gets.

And then when he gets rusty Bochy will use him and he won't be the same. Then after a few times like that and folks will want him sent packing again.
