now i like this. I know it’s a tree and it’s like things are so bad I want to die . But I got so pissed at my vegetable garden the other day cause my pepper plants started to get these strange hole like bites in the peppers. And my Egg plants which by the way is the first year I planted them have started to bend over and dragging the ground even after I staked them. My Tomatoes are still doing very good and my cucumbers have been really good but are starting to die out. Overall good veggies I’ve got this year but I’ve also had some problems and wanted to hang myself cause of several things. Nevermind.. just a garden rant

Hey Telegraph, This is absolute gold man....Im definately impressed...yeah i rec in a game thread

 The Kuebler-Ross Model of Rangers Pitching

Step 1: Denial (It’s just bad luck, none of the balls were hit that hard…. If it was 5 inches to the left, they’d been outs)
Step 2: Anger ( WHY CAN’T YOU THROW A FUCKING STRIKE???!!? )
Step 3: Bargaining ( If we just hold them to 2 runs this inning, our offense will have a chance in the bottom of the 9th! )
Step 4: Depression ( Another 3-run home run by a scrub… why do I even bother… )
Step 5: Insanity ( Don’t worry, we have a ton of up-and-coming prospects who will turn into aces in a couple of years! )

Personally, as the guy identified as Young's biggest fan around here ...

I really wish they’d give the 200 hits bit a rest. He hasn’t been the same hitter this season, largely because he rarely hits for any power any more and instead has started slap-hitting. The last thing he needs is encouragement to continue that trend in hopes of achieving a meaningless milestone.

IM TIRED OF THIS SHITTY TEAM PLAYING EVEN SHITTIER THAN POSSIBLE

fire Ron Washington. hes a complete dumbass. doesnt know how to make a lineup, he certainly has no fucking idea how to manage a bullpen, i mean seriously Padilla has thrown over 100 pitchers and just gave up a homer to Matt Joyce yet he leaves him out there then bam another homer he finally wakes up, and he cant teach worth shit, the only reason we are even around .500 is because of Rudy, Rons says you have to win by pitching and defense yet we are last in both

sign a 3 good free agent pitchers, 2 bullpen and one starter.

Then trade away all of our hitters who have any value and get some pitching. young, kinsler, HAMILTON, laird,etc.

The kid

is in the pen getting ready to warm up a pitcher and is called to the dugout at the last minute to hit for Bradley (because Bradley decides his knee hurts and can’t hit) without even a few swings off a tee for warm-up and everyone is on his case for striking out. Come on!

One of the things that bugs me

It seems every other time I see him vs. LHP he has a different batting stance or timing mechanism batting right-handed. He just hasn’t seemed able to figure things out from the right side this year, which is why I wish we had sent him to AAA immediately after the trade deadline and gotten him some more AB’s.

He’s actually hitting a solid .291/.415/.418 against RHP this year, but you wouldn’t know it thanks to the fact that he’s 12-for-74 against LHP. His struggles from the right side of the plate have really skewed his season #’s in a big way.

Jon, do you remember

when he first came here and he hit pretty good with the so called Sheffield waggle with his bat? That was a mechanism that worked well for him and got him comfortable. Well, The powers that be stopped him from doing it and he has been struggling since. It doesnt help that they keep changing things almost every at bat. Swing at the first pitch, take the first pitch, open stance, close stance, wiggle the bat, don’t wiggle, open the lead foot, close the lead foot etc etc etc. Its almost like someone wants him to be successful with a different swing so they can take credit for it. Crazy. He wants to go back to what felt comfortable but he is thinking he wouldnt get any playing time at all if he did. They need to just leave him alone. Injuries have not made anything easier either. He will work it out off season and come to ST strong.

There needs to be some bonding for the second tier players.

Pull the tarp out and send Vazquez, Metcalf, Arias, Boggs, and Salty out there for some slip ’n slide.

We really should have a drunk posting night on here...

everyone agree to get drunk while watching the game. By the time we start blowing things in the late innings we’ll all be trashed and who knows what we’ll say.
