Odor swinging out of his shoes

Good job by Gallo driving one into the gap and giving Choo the chance to tie it up. Odor continues to be a one trick pony

Thats a strike blue

The first time I saw Claudio I would have bet the farm he would not be around long. Never know.

Longoria with a great stop or its 5-3

Hell of a play to save a run, but still took the lead.

He might be our worst hitter, that's a regular. He has been atrocious this year. Keep sticking him in the middle of the line-up though Banny.

He is miles better than he was last year. At least he isn't up there swinging at every pitch now

Agree for sure

For his low average he's sporting an .817 OPS.... so no.

You think? I still see the free swinging and he's constantly behind 0-2. Either way his defense sure doesn't make up for his OBP.

Until he learns to keep the bat back and drive the ball the other way with more frequency this is what we will get out of him, IMO.

Robbie!!!

W

Helluva play, Robinson. A W! An actual W?! Wow.

Yes I think he has been considerably better than last year but then again I would have been better than he was last year. I think he will continue to improve at the plate and I think his defense at 3rd base or 1B has been serviceable too

Mark the date down on your calendar and be in front of your tv fellas. The next start for Yu Darvish will probably be his last with the Texas Rangers.

I just don't know any rational person that would want to keep this team together. The " usual" is 10k or more strikeouts per game on offense, limited run support for pretty good starting pitchers, a shitty bullpen, clumsy fielding, and clueless managing. Take whatever you can get and rebuild the damn thing.
