March 24, 20214 yr Who's the DH now with Davis and Calhoun out? Hoping we can take 2/3 @ KC to start the year. Surprised we aren't facing Duffy.
March 24, 20214 yr Lowe will probably DH against righties, it could be a scrub like DD or Culberson against lefties. We don’t have shit else for RH pop on the 40. There will be some old vets cut by other teams, but there’s usually a pretty obvious reason why they’re available.
March 25, 20214 yr Heim has made the team as backup Catcher. Dunning, Hearn, and Benjamin made it as well.
March 25, 20214 yr Tepid, Sean Bass and Scott Lucas had a Rangers pod last night. I assume the RodPod is done. This one is called Diamond Talk. I can't find it anywhere. Has anyone listened to it?
March 25, 20214 yr Listened to this pod today. Fuck it I'm excited. I don't know why. I just want to be in a better position in October than in April. They were asked who will be the MVP this year and Newberg said it better be Kipp Fagg. He can't fuck this up, then I got sad

March 25, 20214 yr Listened to that today also. He wasn't saying there is no way for Kip to fuck it up, it was more like he better not fuck this up. That's the way I heard it anyway. (he's gonna fuck it up)

Has anyone listened to it? Found this, it's on The Ticket's app. Supposed to come out every Wednesday. It's a good pod. Good listen. Sean Bass does a good job of keeping it moving
March 27, 20214 yr On 3/20/2021 at 1:43 PM, Don Johnson said: Better not fuck it up He threw 7 no-hit innings tonight with 10 K's.
March 27, 20214 yr A week after throwing a no-hitter in his first SEC game, he throws 7 no-hit innings and gets pulled due to pitch count. That’s 16 straight. Starting to think the debate will be if the Rangers will take Kumar Rocker at #2. Edited March 27, 20214 yr by Don Johnson
March 27, 20214 yr Especially since we should sign Story. Don’t need a SS we’ll see in 2026 at the earliest.

March 27, 20214 yr How many times will our brilliant leader DH Condor with Lowe at 1B? Already know it’s gonna piss me off.
March 28, 20214 yr Morris is about to stroke out from excitement, he thinks Rougie may not make the team again.
March 29, 20214 yr I still think he will be, but there’s always the chance he did something stupid to piss Woodward off.

March 29, 20214 yr I have a real bad feeling most of Ranger fandom is severely overrating Jung. After his broken foot heals, just let him collect a shit-ton of milb ABs.
March 29, 20214 yr Odor will undoubtedly be reformed with some yankeeass team and become a perennial All Star.

March 29, 20214 yr I wished Rougie hadn't gone to shit. But it's best for Texas and best for him. I'm glad it's done
March 29, 20214 yr 1 hour ago, Pato del Muerto said: Is there a right and a wrong choice between rocker and leiter? I think Leiter but I'm not sure. According to Tepid, Rockers fastball was only low 90s last start without much command. That could be just an off day or it portend some bad news. Fingers crossed
March 30, 20214 yr Roogie, thanks for punching Bautista. Now see ya later. Actually he’ll hit like 97 homers next season for Baltimore before fading into Bolivia.
March 30, 20214 yr And Rougie will be our OD 3B. Not so fast my friend...,Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 30, 20214 yr Rougie is one of those guys that you think he probably isn't as bad as he gets a rap for and then you look up his stats and see that he led the MLB in strikeouts two seasons ago while struggling to stay above .200 and then posted a negative WAR last season in just 40 games played. Maybe he just blends in to the roster for me as he wasn't the only horrible starter we had last year (to expound on this - if you want to read something depressing - Rougie actually had the highest SLG% of the 9 hitters with the most ABs for us last season) Edited March 30, 20214 yr by ztejas

March 31, 20214 yr Schedule on ESPN is showing the rotation to be Gibson, Arihara, Lyles, Folty, and Dunning. Guessing Benjamin and Hearn will follow Lyles/Dunning as the tandem starters.
