If it’s not a first-inning meltdown, it’s a last-inning meltdown. This is the sign of a team that just cannot get out of its own way. MacKenzie Gore had one of his rare strong starts: six innings pitched, one run allowed. He left with a lead. For one of the […]
It was almost comical. The Rangers first inning woes struck again. They bury themselves before they even have a chance. In five of their previous six games, they have allowed runs in the first inning: Four, two, three, one, zero, two. They’d lost five of six. So, when deGrom allowed […]
A handy guide to those trying to fold a tent after a long weekend of camping or a season going nowhere fast. Step 1: Stuff: Your team has already given up multiple first-inning runs so the last eight innings of the game are unnecessary. Use that time productively to finish […]
After taking a World Cup break, the Rangers resume their season of frustration, having lost four of their last five, including the first two of the three-game series to the Minnesota Twins. In true soccer fashion, they’ve scored just two runs a game in this series. Just when they finally […]

The treading of water continues. The Rangers were able to salvage the final game of the series in Boston. It was the Red Sox first series win at home since the first week of April. Texas is, once again, a game under .500 and going nowhere. It appears the Rangers […]
This is what happens when you don’t invest in your team. This is what happens when winning isn’t important. This is what happens when you do as little as possible. If ownership isn’t going to invest in the Texas Rangers, why should fans? If ownership doesn’t care about winning, why […]
It’s going to be difficult for the Rangers to put together any sort of sustained winning when two of the five pitchers in their rotation don’t put them in a winning position with each start they make. Yes, the Rangers should expect to win when Jacob deGrom and Nathan Eovaldi […]
You can feel it sweeping all over Texas. The excitement is magical as the eyes of the world are on Arlington. No, it’s not World Cup fever. It’s the Texas Rangers returning to mediocracy. Finally, for the first time since May 1, the Rangers are back to even at 34-34, […]
