I was wrong about today, obviously
Always remember, there's a reason why the division's all bunched up the way it is. Nobody's any good! The Rangers are still in this thing.

On the screen next to each of these photos it says "Results not Typical...Your results may vary".
Found that pretty amusing. It's amazing the shit I see on this channel while waiting for Rangers games.

Thank God for Lewin and Grieve

We aren't alone
He even had some Lewin love.
"A good example of a great call today was the Rangers television announcers when Jason Tyner made an unbelievable over-the-wall home run robbing catch and they got just as excited as if a Ranger player did it. It's how it should be. You can be a homer without being a joke. Apparently Physioc and Hudler never learned that."

WOuld y'all agree?
I think a win today would be great, but their not out of it if they lose, they do need to take 2 of 3 from oakland, esp if seatle loses again

There are lots of ways for the Rangers to win or lose the division as the whole division beats up on itself.

Listen, asshole
They just need to be in first place after 162 games. Yes, they should win as many games as they can, but it's ridiculous to suggest they need a sweep in August to be on top at the end of September.
The Rangers aren't usually in the race in September, so that's why they "fade". You can point to 2004, but that was only one year. The last time they were in the race before that, none of these players were Rangers.

THE FOLLOWING IS A CORRECTION OF THE ABOVE
See, people who are like "anything can happen; it's a long season, etc." [are wrong? Can't be sure what he was saying -- ed.]. Take the season right now! Get even and then go.
The Rangers always fade in the heat of Texas near the end of the season, so they need as many wins as possible, as soon as possible.

Anyway, if I mistakenly typed the wrong word, would that not be considered a typo? And is it hard to believe that an intelligent person whose attention was divided could make such an error?
It's plausible. I think you're just being a dick.

You're right
In that last post you should've used a colon in place of that second comma, by the way. I'll stop short of calling you stupid and I won't question your mastery of the English language, though. I'm sure it was just a mistake.

How are you risking any more of a big inning...
I don't really see it.
If it were someone who was any good coming up, yeah.
But Anderson sucks. I'd much rather take my chances with him in that situation, than Vlad with the runner on second.

You are just giving them an extra baserunner instead of having him earn his way on base. Thats how its leading to a bigger inning. Seems pretty obvious to me.

Like the man says.........
At least they attempted to pitch to him the 1st two games, (end results were much better).
Who gives a shit if he has some bullshit streak ?
It's about winning the damn game !
What's he hitting ? what's his OBP ? We upped it the last two days with 7 for 9 times on base. I don't understand it, so he hits .300 and on base maybe .360, he still makes an out over 6 out of 10 times.......why put him on every fucking time ?
You don't even really have to throw strikes ! He'll get himself out 3 outta those 6.
On the other hand, I'd like to know why this team is so Jekyll & Hyde ?

Try looking at it from the Angels perspective...
I can't believe that.
I also can't believe Buck didn't get riled up more and thrown out himself.
