I was wrong about Joey Gallo. I was wrong when, after watching him flail helplessly at major league pitching time after time after time after time last season, the two seasons before, and every spring training, I declared he would never figure it out. I was wrong about Joey […]
One fun thing to follow the rest of the season is the Home Run Derby between Joey Gallo and Rougned Odor. Who will hit the most out when it’s all said and done? Gallo hit two last night to get to 27. After hitting two the game before, Odor hit […]
The Rangers are having only their second losing season since the World Series years. Think about that. The fact that this is only their second failed season since 2010 is something that should be put up in sky writing in bold letters. It’s been a pretty successful franchise […]
Sunday, July 30, 2017, was a great day to be at Texas Rangers fan. On the field. And in Cooperstown. If not on the scoreboard or in the standings. The greatest catcher to play the game of baseball was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame just minutes before […]

From that point on, the Rangers played their best stretch of baseball all season, going 21-24 (three games under, like they are currently), playing at a much-improved .467 pace. […]
It was the game the Rangers have been waiting one hundred games for. The offense exploded, up and down the lineup. Gallo got two home runs and a walk. Odor was on base four times. Mazara collected three hits. Choo got two hits. Napoli, three, including a home run. […]
The Rangers did last night what they always seem to do after sweeping a team. They played flat, being shut out by the Miami Marlins 4-0. What makes them think they are an elite team? What makes them think they are even a second-tier team? What makes them think they […]
