April 25, 20187 yr Went to the game last night, they now sell these bad boys up and down the aisles just like beer. https://www.buzzballz.com/

Sounds like the concept has been pretty successful. I’ve never had one though - are they any good? They look too fruity for me
April 25, 20187 yr Anyone check and make sure Gallo didn't trip of his dog or anything last night? Also, Calhoun should come up post May 3rd. That's when his service time won't kill a year
April 26, 20187 yr Miserable home stand. Best part was Greive back on the call. Enjoy his stories of some of the crap from back in the day. Gonna be a long season.
April 29, 20187 yr Nice little three game win streak going with Bartolo winning yesterday. Would be nice to sweep the BJ’s today.

May 1, 20187 yr Don't know if anyone is watching this game but it is just reinforcing how really bad Drew Robinson is. Looking completely lost at the plate, terrible in the field- had 2 lazy plays where if he hustles out of the box, he is probably is safe at first with minimal effort. There's no reason for him to be on this roster with Deshields back.
May 1, 20187 yr Valid question: Profar has been player really well lately; when Elvis comes back, does Profar move to second and Odor get benched?
May 1, 20187 yr 3 minutes ago, TheFlagship said: Trade him to the Dodgers for pitching/OF? Not a bad idea with Seager out for awhile
May 1, 20187 yr Though unfortunately in limited playing time, Profar has played an ugly SS. A couple big hits the last few games though

May 1, 20187 yr As bad as the Rangers are this year, it's amazing they don't suck a lot worse then they do.

Play Odor, hope he has a hot streak and becomes more of a tradeable commidity and unload him on some sucker before the deadline for a decent haul.

It would have to be one hell of a hot streak for a team to give up prospects for him and his $42 million in future salary.
May 2, 20187 yr I like this Kiner-Falafel kid, too. He's scrappy. Looks like kind of a gamer. Edited May 2, 20187 yr by DougO

May 2, 20187 yr 28 minutes ago, DougO said: Profar, progood. Profar has had several bad throws lately. From short and turning dp's. Looks a little lackadaisical sometimes.
May 2, 20187 yr A question about the stro bro thread. Do they post about every damn pitch of the game?

May 2, 20187 yr I like winning. IKF is one of these guys that’s not gonna be a star but a guy that every team needs. Glad he’s getting a chance

I do like Kiner falefa(barring the brain fart on 3rd base last night). he looks like a real hitter. a lineup with beltre, Andrus, profar, KF, deshields, Mazara, Gallo, Choo isn't half bad. I think im done with Odor, he just has no plate discipline. really need Choo to be hitting .270 to .280. I don't think Robinson can handle this level of pitching.

Below average fielder who has regressed at the plate. I'd rather have Profar or IKF manning second for the rest of this season.
May 2, 20187 yr i shit you not, I heard the score on the radio driving home and started pondering the 4 run lead and had this conversation with myself. Hmmm 4-run lead. still one swing of the bat could tie it. I wonder if there is some stat site that has the % of 4 run games tied on a GS. Fast forward to late night and I turn it on and see score tied and then go back and figure out WTF happened. Need to ponder my odds of winning the lottery.
May 2, 20187 yr Have a vague feeling that when Odor comes back in, and Kinner-Falefa gets benched, Odor will become the most hates player in Toronto, Houston, and Dallas

May 3, 20187 yr Yohander called up. Remember when he was a top 100 prospect? Sigh Also it appears the Juan Centeno era is over

I've drank at 6 am before, but that made me want to punch the crew in the face.
May 5, 20187 yr Gotdam Nomar is on fire lately. 5 RBI last night, 2-2 so for tonight with double and HR.
