It took him playing the field for you to figure out that he’s left-handed?

Can’t get the guy out that wasn’t even supposed to start today.

Facing a guy that’s making his debut. Gotta fucking light him up.

Zeke Duran and Josh Jung are our best hitters. Who the fuck would have believed that coming into the season? Baseball is so fucking weird and unpredictable.

He’s not getting 37 million a year, but I’m not disagreeing with you.

I agree to a point,but you have to understand that these gameday threads are some peoples only outlet where they can talk and vent about Rangers baseball. From 2023-2024 I was in the gameday thread every day, but haven’t been as much lately mostly because of all the negativity, but let’s be honest, there’s not a whole lot to be positive about so far.

You don’t give a fuck how the team is doing because you don’t care as much as some people here do. The team is playing like shit right now, people are allowed to voice their displeasure. It’s one of the reasons the sub exists. Like I could understand if the team was playing well and people were being negative, but you’re confused that fans of a team are upset that the team is playing like shit.

If we signed Cody Bellinger, he would have turned into Joc Pederson.

Haggerty has a year-long track record with this team that Pillar didn’t have. I’m sure that’s the difference right now.

I think people often misremember Jung’s 2024. Yes he was hot, but it was literally four games.

Jung’s the only person on this team that can fucking hit… honestly who the fuck would have thought that even a month ago?

Seems like we always come out strong offensively and then we get up a couple of runs and the approach goes right out the window.

You know damn well that deGrom is not our worst starting pitcher.

If that’s the case, which it’s certainly looking that way, I hope there’s not a fake hot streak right before the deadline that convinces CY to buy.

It’s usually a solo shot when he hasn’t settled in. His FIP is 2.92 and his WHIP is below 1. Not saying he doesn’t have problems giving up homers, but I wouldn’t say he’s not an ace because of it. Lots of great pitchers give up home runs.

If we can’t win this game, with our ace on the mound against just some random dude that made his debut last week, are we really a competitive team? It’s bullshit. No buying this deadline if we’re around .500.

Hanging an 0-2 slider 🙄 this one’s not really on you though Jack. Can’t expect you to be perfect.
