Well, for the first two months of the season, the only Ranger hitting was Corey Seager. It was him, then a lineup full of 0-for-4s. Occasionally, someone else would squirt out a single here and there and the Rangers would eke out a run or two. Then, Seager was injured, […]
After winning three in a row, the Rangers reverted to their usual low-scoring offense, mustering just two runs against a Twins starter with a 5.40 ERA who gave up eight earned runs in just three innings his last start. They scored a run in the second and a run in […]
The last time the Rangers won consecutive games was early May, and they ended up winning six in a row, three of those, however, were against the lowly Rockies. But two were against the Tigers, the best team in the major league. Two in a row isn’t that remarkable for […]
Two in a row. It’s almost like a winning streak. The Rangers scored nine runs in the last two games. With their pitching, that’s a recipe for winning. It’s good to see Marcus Semien starting to crawl out of the deep hole he dug himself into. And it was good […]
What if this is the best this team can be? What if the offense is hitting to its potential? What if Chris Young’s judgment was clouded by 2023 when, in fact, the output of 2024 and 2024 is the real Rangers offense? What if Josh Jung isn’t more than a […]
The staff at Rangers Rounding 3rd have decided to make our daily output equal to that of the Rangers offense. With that… *****
The ballot for the All-Star game is out. What a difference a couple years makes. In 2023, the Rangers had five position players start the All-Star Game—at catcher, second, short, third, and right. This year, the Rangers will have none. Not even close. Jonah Heim batted .282 in the first […]
The Rangers are 6-24 when the opposition scores first, giving them an 80 percent chance of losing once the other team has scored. The Rangers have scored the fewest runs of any team in the last three innings. In the Rangers twenty-nine wins, once they are down after seven innings, […]
You can sum up last night’s game in one word. Sloppy. The field was sloppy from rain. The Rangers offense was sloppy from lack of hitting ability. The defense was sloppy in the sixth inning, as was Jacob Latz, allowing four runs to score. Jacob Latz, who is horrible this […]
The Rangers just completed the best three games offensively of the year. They scored eleven runs on Friday and eight on Sunday. They got hits with two outs. They played small ball. They had sustained rallies. For three games, at least, they looked like the team everyone expected them to […]
