Rangers vs. Indians this weekend

[Hambombs]

Well just returned home after being away all evening and I see that absolutely nothing has changed regarding our explosive offense...my god..

Yep nothing has changed it truly has hit rock bottom

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Did you want to trade Elvis for Upton? That's the only way it was going to happen. After his crazy hot start, Upton has been pretty average.

I get to watch the Uptons nearly every night...thank god we did not make that trade. The best part of that trade has been Chris Johnson at 3b

 

[RevSader]

Ok what new direction are you taking? Injuries are an excuse? Well it's reality to me but you don't like Wash so you will never accept anything that will give Wash any leniency and benefit of the doubt but that's fine. It is what it is.

He doesn't deserve any benefit of the doubt. He's had the most talented group of players this organization has EVER seen. The team could have been guided by a computer and seen the same results. Managers exist for motivation and morale. Texas is in dire need of both. Mangers get way too much credit for talented rosters. Hell Joe Girardi won a WS....

I didn't want Elvis traded but I would have included Profar for the right package to bring him here. Ya he has been but he's still young and he'd be great in this heat and ballpark.

Profar hasn't shown nearly enough with the bat to think about moving Kins.

no argument here

 

[bradw516]

Goddamn Beltre can still make some fantastic plays.

That's not saying much. The history of this organization will indicate there hadn't been many talented teams. Well it's beating a dead horse...so now a computer can run this team. We'll just have to agreed to disagree.

The package would have been Olt and Profar....Yeah pass.

I think the front office actually is to blame for the fast deterioration of this offense. They are being cheap and not paying big money for a hitter. I never thought Murphy was an everyday player, but he's a good fourth outfielder. Mitch Moreland hasn't been able to solidify first.... We don't have a quality DH. I'm disgusted that we aren't loading up on bars! What about that big TV deal they recently signed? Spend some money because we seem to get matched up with every teams ace and they make us look like idiots....

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

It's such as shame..we have such a solid pitching staff now, and it's only going to improve. The worst Ranger offense in its history...honestly, I don't think I'm exaggerating on this, but I have no facts to back it up...

Yep nothing has changed it truly has hit rock bottom

yes it has, and likely to get worse, look forward to losing to the Angels and Oakland

Go Rangers!

Towers was being cute and ended getting what was considered a worse package than what Texas was offering but hey shit happens. I'm not convinced Olt is going to be anything special given that he's about 25 now so I had no problem including Olt. We'd be getting a 24 year old proven OF'er that would be here for a long time so I would have been ok with that.

There are reasons for that. The offense I mean.

 

[ESPN Refugee]

Ok and....?

Not to mention we are 2nd in WAR for pitching

I am okay without it turned out. And no Justin Upton is not proven. He had one MVP caliber season, and then reverted. That's not proven.

 

[Hambombs]

Ok and....?

Why would you trade profar for Upton? I rather trade andrus
