If yesterday’s game was a car wreck, there would be rubberneckers lined up for miles on the other side wondering what happened. “Wow, how did that car end up in a tree upside down? That doesn’t seem physically possible.” How did the Rangers lose that game yesterday? That didn’t seem […]
Is there anything more typically Rangeresque than losing a game on a rally started by a strikeout? With the game tied 1-1, the bottom fell out of the bottom of the fourth. Jon Gray struck out Pete Alonso swinging to start the inning. But strike three eluded Jonah Heim’s glove, […]
Back when the Rangers were good, it seemed a different player stepped up every day. One day it was Beltre. Then Kinsler. Josh Hamilton. Or Mitch Moreland. Of course, there was always Michael Young. The Rangers are a long long long way from having the depth of talent they once […]
Glen Otto’s last two starts have not been pretty. Sunday, he gave up six earned runs in just two innings. Last night, four earned in four innings. But that came off winning three decisions in a row. So, is a 5.63 ERA good enough? Depends. In most rotations, that would […]
The first three months of the season are in the books. Well, because of the lockout ending so late, it’s more like two-and-a-half months. Still, while there have been ups and downs, at least it’s a book that’s holding your interest. Unlike like year when you wanted to douse it […]

Wait. So that’s what it looks like when Marcus Semien and Corey Seager both show up on the same night? That was good. Really good. Rare, but good. This was the offensive combination the Rangers imagined when they plunked a few hundred million dollars at these two players in free […]
Rangers fans have seen this before. In fact, eight times before. Since the Rangers finally reached .500 on May 31st, only to then immediately lose seven of its next nine games, they had crawled back to within two games of .500 eight times before last night. They lost all eight […]
Coming into this season, starting pitching was supposed to be this team’s weakness. It was so bad, the Rangers signed Martin Perez to fill one of the slots. They had him penciled in as their number five starter. How bad was the rotation going to be? They signed Jon Gray […]
That’s what Adolis Garcia does. He has a knack for hitting a home run when his team really needs it. His first home run of the season came on opening day. It tied the game 8-8. His second home run was a two-run shot against the Angels. It tied the […]
