Series Thread: Your Texas Rangers at the Colorado Rockies 5/5 - 5/6

[darrylgann]

You definitely shouldn't let it get to you that much. I mean after all you have no control over it and it is supposed to be something you watch because its fun, not because it adds more stress to your life.

I don't think you will go anywhere though. Like DT said last time you mentioned maybe skipping some games... you have 30K posts... I think you will be coming back.

I don't mind us losing. I just don't understand why we can't be competitive doing it. I'm with Romeo here. This just isn't fun.

Everything is falling in for CO. EVERYTHING.

Wave the white flag for this 2 game set. Rangers have been dominated.
Come back tomorrow and hope for the best...

Also, fuck Ogando.

 

[Justinkm83]

This is absolutely unbelievable. All they have to do is put the bat on the ball and it's a hit.

I am with you on that and Ross would help bolster the pen.

Yeah,its looking like my homer ASG game appearance for Ross call was way off mark. I still like the kid a ton but he and Shep are much more valuable to us in the pen. Issue with bringing up Tep up is you use an option on him and then likely send him down when Holland returns. Not sure if they are wanting to use an option on him this season. I agree though, he has earned it and deserves a shot. At this point I would even be ok with giving Martinez a shot starting and getting Ross back to the pen.

Shouldn't Scheppers be ready to come back soon?

I would have pulled Ross in the 4th even though
he got out of it. Even though he only had 70
Pitches I would not have let him start the 5th
But my name is not Ron Washington.
This lineup is like the Rangers of a couple years ago
And Ross was over matched.

Ogando needs some Botox injected into
That cyst so he can be his old self.

Another game we are not in. Not good.

I agree thats its definitely no fun

Look for Ogando to go on the DL. Just my prediction.

Good God we should start a clinc on how to hit into DPs

I don't think he's coming back until the end of the month.

At least Choo is fun to watch

 

[Justinkm83]

Ha ha. Wilson hit the ball hard and ends up in a DP. Choo smoke it up the middle and has it ricochet to Morneau for what should've been an out. It's just going bad for us right now.

 

[TheRangerDude]

Maybe the team is a little groggy because they tried some of those special Colorado cookies TAG was talking about last night.

 

[Justinkm83]

Another pathetic AB from the middle of the line-up. That's it for me.

That's it for me for a while. Maybe the thunder will show up tomorrow.

 

[TheRangerDude]

wow that was an amazing and fortunate catch for Chavez.

 

[TheRangerDude]

That's it- someone on the team committed a cardinal baseball sin or something- our pin is going to be trashed- can Wilson or someone just pitch batting practice the rest of the game to save the pen.

 

[TheRangerDude]

Guess I'm the only one still around...guess I will check out of here too.

like i said yesterday, our starting pitching is regressing to where i thought it would be at this point. they started so well and looked like so much promise, but this is sorta what i thought they would ultimately be. Which is why all offseason i was pleading for good starting pitching reinfocements lol
