Series Thread: Rangers @ Twins 5/26-29

I see 2 out of Hill, Allen & Murray transferring/decommitting when all is said and done, just don't know who it'll end up being, not to mention Murray has plenty of time to change his mind as well

A lot will be determined in the next couple months, the loser between Allen & Hill will probably transfer at some point and then the loser between them and Murray might transfer or Murray may end up demcomitting

Wasn't Allen the #1 QB last year?

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Yeah I saw that. He a switch hitter. I brought up Choice because he hasn't gotten many starts against righties. He actually has a higher AVG and SLG% vs. righties this year, and in his career.

True. I wonder if they will ever let the two play at the same time as they have the past few years in the minors.

Rangers to acquire utilityman Jason Donald from Royals and they've signed Phil Irwin

#1 pocket passer, which is precisely why Murray won't sit around waiting on him to finish his tour

If there was a couple years between them a different story but just 1 and I don't think both play here long

Hmmm. That could mean that Sardinas goes back to the minors where he should be.

Former Ranger Mike Olt is really struggling. He's now hitting .168

Now here's some interesting stats for tonight.

The Rangers will try to bounce back against Kyle Gibson (4-4, 4.68 ERA), who has been wildly inconsistent. The right-hander has posted a 12.42 ERA in his losses and a 0.81 mark in his other five starts.

So get to him in the first inning and watch the wheels come off.

it could also mean that a trade for starting pitching may be imminent

Probably gonna see Cy Gibson tonight. The rangers usually hit aces and struggle against the lesser known / average pitchers.

Sardinas for Scherzer. Sound good?

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Springer has done well for Houston. 9 homers already with 6 coming in the last 10 games.

And Houston is on a major roll! Great to see....except we don't need them catching up to us!!!

Throw in Arencibia or Kirkman...make it a deal they can't refuse!!!

 

[darrylgann]

So much for getting to him early. Must have been less than 10 pitches there. And for Saunders, first hit for extra bases.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Have we not figured out that Dozier likes the ball up and in. So does Maurer.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Ok, I've seen enough...who's our long reliever tonight...very long reliever....

 

[Justinkm83]

Let's hope it's not one of those nights where we it the ball hard right at someone all night

He has 6 in the last 6 games I believe.
