Evan Grant says that things are back to usual with the Rangers now in a four game skid and now trail both Oakland and Cleveland for the second wild card spot.

Hunter Pence is quick to point out that he can either choose to be disappointed about not being able to play in the All Star Game or he can choose to acknowledge that last year he didn’t even have a job.

Josh Jung and Davis Wendzel have given the organization flexibility in more ways than one.

Matt Bush doesn’t want the Rangers’ massive stockpile of cadaver tendons to go to waste.

Jeff Wilson says that yesterday’s loss, like all bad things in the universe, can be blamed squarely on Rougned Odor.

Jung and Wendzel will be heading to Surprise to start their professional careers, though Wendzel has a nagging thumb injury that will keep him from playing for at least three weeks.

Chris Woodward is more worried about the offense in the current losing streak, noting that Mike Trout will torch a lot of people.
