That error by Profar and the blown save by Nathan in that one game against Tampa Bay looks like the nail in the coffin.

I'll just be happy with a win and to watch some hitting. I've wrote off the WC....nothing is shaking out for us.
Next year...

Meanwhile, win some games Rangers!

Well, here we are. The best way to approach this last week is to see it as a win-win for the Rangers.

Option 1: They get hot, win 6 of 7, and go into the WC as a hot streaky team and maybe do some damage.

Option 2: They continue their September meltdown, miss the playoffs, and at the very least we get a roster overhaul in the offseason and very possibly a new manager. Few managers have ever survived 2 straight September collapses. The national media is taking notice now of the Rangers' struggles.

Either way bodes well for 2014. This isn't our year. That is pretty obvious. I expect the same buffoonery on the basepaths and the same impatient at bats this last week so we are almost certainly looking at option 2. But we probably get a new manager out of it. And that would be more than worth it to me.

I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out....
When they showed the replay after the game I saw that and was like...whoa that dude is an ass. I don't know if the got the out though.

I'm not saying he deserves it, but I won't feel sorry for him. I wonder if Tampa's shitty playing surface had anything to do with it.

maybe the turf? don't know, looks like the right foot caught the side of the bag, and then he was just hosed

If you fall into fair territory because you blew your knee apart...I think the ump should just call it even.

I agree.
I was just pointing out it didn't look like he was trying to be a dick or anything.

but again, agreed

Ligaments are still ligaments....rolled ankles don't hurt any less because they are ankles.

I'm going to walk this back a little, technically I'm pretty sure he had to tag him and he knew had to.

Unless there's some injury rule where an Ump can call dead ball?
but the defender would have to ask or wait for that?

interesting
