The Rangers finished the first half on an upswing, winning two out of three from the Astros. Houston’s lead is still way too large for Texas to be thinking about winning the division. But a wild card is not out of the question. Especially if they get a bit of […]
It needs to be said only because it could mathematically happen. The Rangers could end the first half of the season over .500. And if they can somehow pull that off, it will be one of the few positives to glean from what has been a frustrating first half. It […]
The Rangers get ready to face the Astros for three games that might have at one time meant something but now will determine how far out they will be respectability before the All-Star break. They beat the Angels last night to split a four-game series they would have won. But, […]
This is what happens when you go into a season without a closer. The Rangers have been operating on smoke and mirrors all season with Luke Jackson, Chris Martin, and Robert Garcia masquerading as closers. The whole situation has been showing cracks all season, but they’ve dodged a bullet for […]
Did you ever have a car that was so temperamental you had no idea what it was going to do from day to day? Was it going to start on its own? Were you going to have to push start it? Did you accidentally flood it? Or it it going […]
As the trade deadline approaches, Chris Young has stated he will wait to see if this team can turn it around before deciding what he will do. Who does he think he’s fooling? The Rangers, as constructed, will not turn it around. This is who they are. If the first […]
“No, I’m not doing that again. I’ve fallen for this trick before.” “I won’t do it this time, I promise.” “You say that every time, and every time I run up hoping to kick the football and at the last minute you pull it away and I fall flat on […]
The Rangers have been here before. One game under .500. Trying desperately to get to even. Trying even more desperately to get above .500 and be relevant. They lost the first game of the season, so technically they were a game under right away. But that was before the world […]
You’re on a long car trip with the family in a car with broken AC, bad tires, and no radio. It’s just you, a car full of screaming kids, with the windows rolled down in a desperate attempt to get some air but also to dampen the screeching of all […]
Let’s go out on a limb here and say the Rangers aren’t winning the A.L. West. Granted, that’s a very short limb, but it’s true. It’s going to be Houston again, barring some major cataclysmic shift in the cosmic universe. Texas cannot make up any ground on Houston. They were […]
