Think Dave looks like it as a job but lacks the visible passion you would like to see in the booth. At least Grieve loves the Rangers but he is in there spot times.
Needs an overhaul IMO

they can take Emily Jones with them too. The rangers broadcast director always has to find ugly people in the crowd and show them after Emily comes on the screen to make it look like she still has it. She used to be great, but she’s washed up.

There has to be other options out there. Listening to him makes me want to punch myself in the face repeatedly. It's soooo bad

Blame Nolan…… the tv broadcast has been awful since Josh Lewin left.

Looks aren’t everything for sure but she is a bit to rah rah for my taste.
Yes her time should be up
Just my taste though

Can’t believe they can’t find anyone better. Several on this board would be better than him.

Newberg thinks Leody gets called up. I am not so sure and not thinking Bubba either.
Would they spot start Leody in LF?
Really would like to see Leody start daily in CF but not sure who would take LF for that. Not thinking it is Garcia or Kole

How are Semien and Seagar having as bad of a season combined as they have ever had? Nobody is performing above average offensively. Heim is statistically probably the best performer so far (Duran hasn't had enough AB's to qualify) but when do you question the approach or the voices of the coaching staff? Underperforming can happen individually in lots of cases but when it is collectively, it makes you wonder. They can hit the HR but beyond that, it doesn't look particularly good offensively.

Per Sandler after game broadcast he thinks Smith is no where near coming off IL and Leody is a favorite to replace White if he on IL. Not thinking it is a big deal to have him Kole and Adolis in same OF

Leody is on the 40 and Bubba isn't probably the argument

He thinks it is either Garcia or Leody but also would not rule out Kole
Of course if we are keeping Leody up for and extended time let him play CF

Announcers (whom suck) said on the broadcast today, that the Rangers ideally want Adolis in RF (because of his arm) Calhoun in LF and Leody when ready in CF. Take that for what it's worth

They may just recall Walker. I think he has played all 3 positions in the outfield.

Smith most likely won't be back until very late July or August at the earliest.
