Reflecting on my Ranger journey that began at Turnpike when there were only 2 divisions and before the internet existed. I relied on headlines and radio and bleacher seats

This looks like it could be the year I have been waiting on

Go Rangers Finish it

The StartleGram have headlines already declaring Rangers as champions

They need to retract Newspaper malpractice

I sure hope you're right. Be so nice to get that monkey off our backs.
Hope Eovaldi is electric tonight.

Their relief corps is decimated and the only that was effective yesterday was R. Nelson and he threw 50+ pitches.
We just need to get to Gallen early and often

I hope the some of the Rangers players watched or remember the Cubs-Cleveland world series! (16?) Series followed this exact win cadence and The Indians allowed the Cubs to win game 5 in Chicago and take game 6 and 7 from them at home.

I want no part of a game 6 or 7, especially with our postseason home performances.

Let's win this tonight! And when I say win, let's demolish them.

You most certainly did call me out. You said, that you’re suggesting the umps are the reason you lost yesterday. I never blamed the umps. Not only are you a jerk, but a liar too.
god damn you're stupid! my first remark was not directed at you, you dumb ass! AND i suggested you blamed the umps as PART of the reason you lost. seriously, learn to read and comprehend!

The umpires in this series have sucked and have cost both teams and yes the bad calls may, repeat: may, have cost the Rangers a game.

Of their 3 starters I believe Gallen is the most hittable. Just need to be patient.
And we need to pound him early and often scoring at least 5 on him. We can not afford to do offensively what we did last night. The team scored 10 in the first 3 innings and had, I think, 2 or 3 hits and scored 1 run in the last 6 innings. We can not afford to go to sleep offensively

I know no one agrees with me but Jankowski deserves to be on this team next season. Every time he has been called on he’s made the plays and contributed offense when needed. He is the optimum 4th outfielder that can backup all 3 outfield positions. My 2024 outfield would be Langford, Carter & Garcia with Jankowski as the 4th

You first responded to one of my posts and claimed I was blaming the loss on the umpires amd you also claimed the bad calls went both ways in that game. You were very wrongs about both. That is why I initially said you had no clue about what you were talking about. That is still the case about your original post. Now, shoo. Scat!

You’re one to talk about low iq. Look at the umpire ratings for all 4 games and they have all graded below average or worse. Their poor ball/strike calls have cost BOTH teams but you’re locked on one game and accusing everyone who questions them. Take your 80 iq and crawl back into your basement

3 were junk time fill-ins (Brock, Stratton & Smith) and the others (Heaney, Dunning, Bradford & Leclerc) gave us quality innings. we're set up good for today's game with Eovaldi
Burke should have never been added to the roster.
Smith did strike out Marte on 3 pitches and Carroll on 5 pitches which was huge.

I agree with you.
