Can anyone stop the Dodgers? Remember in the offseason when they bought every single free agent, some they didn’t even need? They just bought them so nobody else could. They amassed this super team. They went out and started the season 8-0 and were never going to lose. There were […]
To the surprise of absolutely nobody, the Rangers named Skip Shumaker their next manager, replacing Bruce Bochy. It’s difficult replacing a legend. Just ask every third baseman the Rangers have run out since Adrian Beltre. But at least Shumaker has managerial experience. Before Chris Young came on board, the Rangers […]
Three of the four wildcard series are going to an elimination game. Detroit and Cleveland. Boston and New York. San Diego and Chicago. In the fourth wildcard series, Los Angeles knocked out Cincinnati in two games and will move on to face Philadelphia. It will be a great day of […]
The news of Bruce Bochy stepping down as Rangers’ manager comes as a surprise to no one. When his contract was allowed to expire, it was just a matter of time before his tenure expired. If he was coming back, they’d have signed him already. As relayed by Jeff Wilson […]
Bruce Bochy’s contract expired with yesterday’s final out. Rangers President of Baseball Operations, and the man responsible for pulling Bochy out of retirement, said he would meet with Bochy once the season is over to discuss his situation. It’s a bit curious that he hasn’t already re-signed for 2026 and […]
What a frustrating season. They had the lowest team batting average in baseball, at .225. Scored the third fewest runs of any team, only dreadful Colorado and Pittsburgh scored fewer. They had the fewest hits and the second-lowest OPS. No, it’s not the Texas Rangers. It’s the Cleveland Guardians. A […]
In this lost season, Texas won’t have a losing record. At least there’s that. With the Rangers 7-3 win over the Guardians, they record their eighty-first win. So, even if they lose their final two games of the season, the worst Texas could finish is 81-81. Perhaps this game was […]
The Rangers gave their fans one last reminder of the season they tortured them with. Their uninspiring 4-0 loss to the Twins in their final home game of 2025 featured everything the Rangers season represented. Great starting pitching. An anemic offense. And a bullpen with no shutdown closer. That Texas […]
Of course, on the day after they were eliminated, they finally win. The Rangers snapped their eight-game losing streak. But their offense wasn’t good enough to do it on its own. Texas had to get a lot of help from wild pitches. That seems to be the Rangers best offensive […]
Joc Pederson hit a lead-off homer for the Rangers. Then, they quit. They called it a night. They folded up their tent and went home, picking up three harmless singles the rest of the night in their dismal 4-1 loss to the Twins. It was Texas’s eighth loss in a […]
