This disaster is my fault

Since this game represents the worst that could realistically happen to a Rangers’ team (or maybe not, really), I checked my horoscope for the day. Get this:

Cancer
Something shocking and a bit outrageous is going to happen today, and you need to be prepared for it. When it happens, don’t react. Stop everything just for a moment and review the situation thoroughly. It is not what it looks like at first glance, so if you give in to a knee-jerk reaction now, you will be regretting it in a big way later on. Be objective, be analytical and be cautious, today. Don’t let yourself get caught up in irrational emotions or fear.

How appropriate!

My horoscope for today
If things seem overwhelming or unpleasant, remember that this situation won’t last forever. You’ve got plenty of reserves still untapped, so keep pushing until you break through to the other side.

I don’t really believe in that stuff, but that is oddly dead on…

4 2/3 ip 4 ER

With the worst control hes had all year and some other questionable plays behind him aside from the errors that led to the 2 unearned runs.

With the way hes getting bashed you’d think we didnt see that kind of start 3 times a week.

Granted, Id be complaining about mendoza after all those walks. But with mendoza the walks are part of the pitcher he is. There are legitimate reasons to think its an aberration for harrison.

Id worry about sending him down in reaction to this, but who knows if millwood will actually come back and force someone out of the rotation anyway (or if hunter is going to stay).
