Opening Day #2

Guys!  It's opening day for our four full season minor league affiliates.  As great as the first two Rangers games have been, baseball season doesn't really start for me (and many of you, I'm sure) until I get to open three game day trackers and scan and rescan 5 box scores at the end of the night.  I don't know when our parent team will suffer its first loss this year, but I am sure glad they were able to hold out long enough that the sting can now be mitigated by the juggernaut that is our farm system.

So be sure to check Shroom's site for the probable starters and read over all the great stuff in your inbox from Jamey and Scott, and be sure to count your blessings that you were born a Rangers fan and have a bazillion resources at your disposal to help you follow all our affiliates.

I've already got tickets for Hickory vs. Greenville for next Monday-Thursday.

Should be fun.

I’ll try to get some video, but I don’t know how well that’ll work.

Definitely get some pics and eye witness accounts, though.

The 40 Trumps All!!!

I love you, Marcus Lemon.

Word.

‘(Expletive) Dave Samson,’ then don’t say anything at all.
So I’m not going to say anything at all.
Is my mother the greatest or what?"

Awesome, but no matter how strong the urge, please censor any penile reactions from the vids…

we're underway in Hickory

with Boscon striking out Tim Beckham for one of his 2 Ks in a scoreless first inning.

and yeah, i clicked Clinton before I remembered they are Hickory now. That’ll take some getting used to.

What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
