It’s good to end it against the Angels, a team so bad it just got swept by the White Sox, a team so bad it just lost its one-hundred-twenty-first game of the season, the most in major league history. The Angels are so bad, Marcus Semien had one of his […]
In his second major league at-bat, Justin Foscue singled and eventually came around to score a run. It was the only run the Rangers would score that game in a 3-1 loss to Houston way back on April 7. He pulled a hamstring and didn’t make it back to the […]
Josh Jung is being shut down for the rest of the season. It’s probably something they should have done sooner. The human I.L. machine had his wrist broken by an errant fastball in the fourth game of the season. He had already hit two home runs and driven in six […]
With one week left in the season, there are no divisional races. All six division winners have been finalized. The New York Yankees will win the A.L. East, the Cleveland Guardians the A.L. Central, and the Houston Astros the A.L. West. In the National League, the Philadelphia Phillies clinched the […]
It’s been a while since Marcus Semien was the guy getting the bucket of Gatorade poured on him. He’s had a bad year offensively in 2024. But, it was to be expected. That’s the pattern of his career. Every odd year, Semien puts up Most Valuable Player numbers. Every even […]
And with yesterday’s loss to Seattle, the Rangers suffered their eighty-second loss of the season. They will not finish over .500. The Rangers will join an inglorious list of, now, eleven teams to finish under .500 the year after winning the World Series. Yesterday was a perfect encapsulation of the […]
Maybe Jack Leiter isn’t ready for the major leagues, but he is ready for a nickname. The rookie has now appeared in eight major league games, and has allowed multiple earned run in each. Last night was the fourth time in eight appearances has allowed five or more earned runs […]
It is with profound sadness that Rangers Rounding 3rd announces unpleasant news. The 2024 Texas Rangers have been eliminated from the American League West division race. After yesterday’s dismal 4-0 loss in which the Rangers were able to amass just two lousy singles, they are now ten games out of […]
Cody Bradford is the hope. Could he finally be the success story the Rangers had failed for so many years to develop? It’s an embarrassing string of failures that cost the last guy his job. But yesterday’s starter Cody Bradford, combined with today’s starter Kumar Rocker might be the hope […]
Wyatt Langford might be the best thing to come out of this miserable season. After going 3-for-4 last night, with two doubles, a home run, and two RBIs, Langford is hitting .345 in September, with a .424 on-base percentage and a whopping 1.097 OPS. That’s in elite territory. Remember, he […]
