Again Corbin is pitching pretty well.

13 of 15 now. Garcia with a 2 out single.

Let's see just got home to watch bottom of the 5th and I said to myself the Rangers will have no runs and one hit. Bullseye♧♧♧ I mean this is getting to easy to predict but very disturbing for this team.

 

[DTLUNA]

enough ups and downs. This team just can't hit a baseball.

 

[jaar01]

Sort of frees up the evening I guess.

 

[DTLUNA]

Another quality pitched game wasted.

8-inning complete game giving up 2 runs and takes the loss. i have a unique solution to this abortion of a team. CY comes into the Lockeroom announces Bouchy is relieved of his duties, but he won't leaving the team by himself because 2 of you will be leaving too

 

[Duane1952]

so how long will you give the next manager with the same crap going to the plate?

Something needs to change. There’s something wrong in that clubhouse. This lineup shouldn’t be this bad in the last season and the first part of this one.

I'm lost at what is wrong but Bochy doen't bat. Players have to produce no matter what is wrong in the clubhouse.

but they are we could replace the entire coaching staff and it ain't going to change their performance. we have got to clean house of some of these players even if the team has to eat their salaries to do so. Garcia and Semien are the first 2 i would outright

This team bad with the fundamentals and that is on Bochy.

 

[fanman8825]

Just look at this offense and it looks like we're fielding a AAA team every night. Only Smith and Jung are batting in the 260's. Every body else is below the 245 mark.
Hard to believe Langford batting 228. Even Seager is at 246.
I could understand if it was just a couple of guys not hitting, but it's the whole team for the most part.
I don't even trust CY to fix this mess. Have not been too keen on his moves up to this point.

I agree that a lot of this is on the players, but with this many players struggling it is also on the manager and his coaches, except the pitching coaches.

We need:

1) A new manager and several new coaches

2) A sell off of several players with the exception of some of the younger guys, Seager, and our starting pitchers who can be here next year. I would only consider trading those exceptions if someone blew me away.

3) CY needs to make several good trades to restock the farm system with some of that being in the upper levels so they can contribute in 2026.

4) We need to spend on the back end of the bullpen and on a couple bats.

5) We need to find out over the last 2 to 3 months of the season what we have in Crim and Foscue.

I actually like what CY did in the bullpen for 2025 for everything but the 8th and 9th inning. You push the guys we have back in the pecking order and I think they would be great. They could have done that already if CY would have used the Pederson money for late inning guys. Taveras should have been traded 6 months ago so his salary could have been spent on late inning guys as well.

If Ray Davis decided to fire CY for those mistakes I would understand. If he decides to keep him because of the WS title, I would understand that as well.

This may be the year to give Cody Fredman a chance. He is really doing great for Round Rock.

Definitely woild like to see Foscue and Freeman. Think we need to see what we have.
I am hoping Semian continues to pick his average up and be productive. Want see his value go up in case of a trade. CY is going to have to be creative to move some of these guys.
