and to complete that sentence at the end add ‘the majors’.

Yes.

Gray was removed after 75 pitches because of groin tightness.

I am telling you, this seems like 2014 all over again with these injuries.

 

[saddles]

We have the exact same record as that 2014 Rangers team did after 49 games.

 

[saddles]

If any team in out division gets hot over the next 9 to 10 weeks, we could be sellers at the trade deadline.

There was a point last June when the Rangers started going through a change from playing great to struggling. Since then they have gone 74-77. That doesn't include their postseason run. That is a very long period to be under .500, unless that is who they are.

i know most don't agree but the BP is a disaster. our starting pitching even with the injuries has kept us in virtually every game only to see the BP fail to hold it.

we need to build the BP through trade and FA signings this coming off-season.

CY said last year after the World Series he said he knew the bullpen was a problem and he was going to fix it, and he didn’t. I don’t trust CY to do anything to make thee bullpen better.

Another pitcher with over a 5 era in AAA. If you can’t pitch in AAA you will not be able to pitch in the majors.

That’s how I feel too. Think we all knew we had to add about 4 pieces to the bullpen whether by free agency or trades. Yates and Robertson were not enough.
CY was counting on Sborz Burke Leclerc Rodrigues Urena Hernandez and maybe to a lesser extent Heaney if Scherzer came back.
There is too many question marks with all those guys except for Heaney and maybe Urena

CY blew it with me when he brought Grossman back. Totally a mistake without any reasonlng to justify such an obvious blunder.

Grossman is not even a bargain basement guy. He is worse

To rub salt into the wounds I see where Cole Ragans has thrown 6 innings of 1 hit ball and struck out 12 hitters. He should be done for the day as he is at 100 pitches.

I saw a question the other day that asked when was the last time the Rangers had a homegrown ace. It should have been Ragans.

 

[saddles]

Garcia is back in the lineup tonight.

All of a sudden, today, I can no longer post anything from Twitter on here.

Dunning activated and Cole Winn goes to AAA.
