Texas will score 8 runs on one hit this inning.

Seems like I've seen this movie before

 

apparently it was a real blockbuster when it was first released because they just keep churning out sequel after sequel

 

And as with most sequels, they just keep getting crappier and crappier.

This is the team that was built to "win now?"

 

If this team played to it's potential, it would be way ahead of Milwaukee right now.

 

I demand a scapegoat!

Well, that's why you play the games. Potential doesn't count for much in the standings.

Bowen! He led off with the walk that clogged the bases.

I'll take it. Burn him at the stake!

[E.J.]

I'm 100% positive the Rangers will score here.

 

Good call.

[98navigator]

how fitting

[wastra]

This is the team that was built to "win now?"

 

By my count, this team today has 4 guys who were planned to be backups (granted Ramirez is out, but still...)

 

Theriot

Ward

Bowen (?!?)

Pagan

 

Plus two emergency callups:

Fontenot

Pie

 

If we give them the benefit of the doubt and say that Ramirez' injury is the reason for one, and the DH is another, that's still 4 guys who shouldn't be starting for a team intent on winning a division right now.

 

 

 

Strike 32, Jim. You're way out of here.

[Chocolate Milk]

I thought this Bowen character knew how to call a game?

[inari]

MY GOD

 

They can do it with a runner on 1st. We can't do it with the bases loaded. What a fing joke. I hate this team.

[cubfan1955]

Ball goes over the fence? Is that good when a team does that?

[JonnyRed]

When Mike Fontenot is hitting second, your lineup has big time problems.

 

I don't mind the move...Felix has been struggling and Fontenot is the hottest hitter in the lineup. Who would you have preferred?

[Lockes Eye Scar]

Victor Diaz strikes again.

[Soriano12]

[otis89]

Who didn't see that coming? Fitting that it was Diaz.

Why is Jim Hendry still employed with this organization?

[Schwarber Fan]

The Rangers lineup is atrocious.

 

Victor Diaz is going to have 3 HR

 

there's 1

[E.J.]

Fire Sale Time!

 

God I'm tired of hearing that stupid song after the Rangers hit a homerun.

[RichHillIsABeast]

comical

[otis89]

Who the hell is Adam Melhuse?

[inari]

lol

 

Game over.

[Lockes Eye Scar]

let's give up a few more homers in this series

[Marco4]

Gah. This is poor.

[JonnyRed]

Glad to see the worst team in baseball smacking us around, while we can't seem to hit the second 6+ ERA pitcher we've faced.

 

This team boggles the mind....just when we think they are getting it turned around this crap happens
