Series Thread: World Series preview? Rangers at Wrigley to play the Cubs 7/15-7/17

I can do that between patients at work or while watching the game or whatever. I also haven't been on as much lately if you haven't noticed. I damn sure don't have time to walk around like a 12 year old looking for mythical creatures with my head buried in my phone looking like a dumbass and also an easy target for people with bad intentions.

Glad I'm not your next patient

I'm damn good at my job, DT.

Tons of news stories out already. I've heard of a guy getting into a car crash while driving and playing Pokemon go, I've heard of someone else who actually stopped in the middle of the road and got out of their car to try and catch a Pokemon. I've heard of a guy getting fired at work for playing it and a man who got bit by a snake while playing it. Just pay attention to your damn surroundings people.

Good advice since this is a ballgame.

They had to release statements that Arlington national cemetery and 9/11 ground zero were not acceptable places to play Pokemon go.

I'm sure you are. Just missed a little humor

 

[Nightcrawler]

How funny would it be if the developers of Pokemon go put the most rare and powerful ones in North Korea and nowhere else?

Rangers pitcher Jake Diekman placed on DL with a beer mug injury

K.

Maybe we need a Jihadi Pokémon type game. Catch the terrorist before they attack type of theme.

Sounds good to hear Yu being back tomorrow.

Just need to find out when our offense is coming back

Gonna be awfully hard to put up big innings with Prince's fat worthless ass parked right in the middle of the lineup.

Hard for me to pin the blame on him.

Yea, he is great protection for Beltre.

 

[TheRangerDude]

Crap, I guess I missed the game

Looks like it's one I can get over missing.

Let's see he had runners on first and third in the first and struck out. And he had an error in the sixth that kept the inning going for the Cubs. He is a big reason why they lost.

This team is a train wreck right now. We are losing games by lopsided scores. Having Lewis out hurts a lot and that was on top of Darvish already being out. Plus Choo makes a big difference in the lineup and he cannot stay healthy. Then the Prince Moreland or Mitch Fielder tandem has been so bad that both of them should be sitting on the bench not just one of them. And on top of it we lost two game where we had a 3 run lead and a 4 run lead. You would hope coming out of the break we would have seen a rejuvenated team but this team looks terrible right now. And I am sick and tired of Banny and whoever else of freezing guys who are HOT and playing guys who are NOT.

Rooster has clearly demonstrated that he lacks the balls to do what is best for the team. He does what is best for the player. Not a good quality you want to have in a manager.

I'm seeing 5 singles total from the offense, with no one driven in. But more specifically, my earlier comment was part of a more "in general" discussion. Meaning, in general, Prince is not the reason the ENTIRE offense sucks.

Agree.

 

[Nightcrawler]

The offense has been in a bit of a down turn. We expected them to have more success against the Twinkies 5+ ERA pitchers and they came up short.
