    When I turned it on for pregame the channel wasn’t loading so I messaged DTV and they said I couldn’t get it.

I like that there is a whole line of Rangers fans sitting in right and the camera hits them perfect every time someone is on 2nd.

(sigh) OK, good win. Should have been a sweep, but I'll take it.

You want to get everybody fighting again, lol.

3.5 games out of the playoffs at the ASB of what has been a dogshit season offensively so far. If the bats can wake up/upgrade at all this is a rotation built for the playoffs…

There's a possibility I may have been a little boozed up and overreacted.  Either way, it's sorry ass Houston's fault.

Rangers series win and a couple of El Bombi HRs to piss them off even more.  It was a good weekend.

We're winning the World Series.

Just drafted an advanced high school hitter out of CA at #12. No position, probably a future corner OF. Was actually committed to the Horns but obviously wasn’t ever gonna make it.

Can he catch? This two C system hasn’t been terrible. Why not make it three

Need to draft a closer that can play next week.

From what I saw, we are getting some arms back shortly- unless they are put on a more extended IL.  Would we have enough pitching to shop some of it for a bat?

I don’t pretend to know how we can make it work, Shadow will have a much better grip, but I know fat blob Joc Pederson, who we owe $16 mil a year or something like that to, will be back soon.  He’s an albatross, and will take up a spot that could go to someone better with potential that could help us win. 
That sorry sonofabitch.

He’s hit righties his entire life, he better do it in August & September too. If we’re seeing both Cs &/or Zeke in meaningful games late, we real fucked. 

I hope you’re right, because every time I think of that sloth at the plate, my eyes burn.  Fuck him.

What is our deal with drafting pitchers coming off arm injuries?  Both the Tennessee and Nebraska guys.

Joc seems like he has always been a very streak-based performance guy. When he's hot he's on fire. We just need to see that version more often when he gets back.

Proximity to Jerry Jones, maybe.

I thought he was listed as a 3B? Is that just because they have to list him at something?

Also, tightwad Davis decided he can part with $100k and gave Eovaldi the all-star bonus that’s in his contract.

That Sunday game is ESPN's Sunday night game.

Rangers transaction for Wednesday:

-1B Jake Burger placed on 10-day Injured List, retroactive to 7/13, with a left quad strain. 

Jung, Foscue, Crim, or create a 40-man spot for Fat Rowdy? Would help a little if we knew who Det's Saturday starter is.

It is Rowdy coming up, clear clubhouse leader in BMI going forward.

And if CJ is going for it, let's get a closer please. Maybe Garcia can cut it.

Either way Luke Jackson needs to never come out of that bullpen again unless we're up 11-3 ... even then I'd rather see Zeke pitch.

Rowdy Tellez, bitches. Championship...

The Rangers have acquired RHP José Ruiz and cash considerations from the Atlanta Braves in exchange for RHP Dane Dunning. 

Ruiz, who does not go on the Rangers' 40-man roster, will be assigned to Round Rock (AAA).  Dunning had been on option at Round Rock.  The club now has 38 players on the 40-man roster. 

Ruiz, 30, has made 18 relief app. with PHI and ATL in 2025.  He was most recently DFA by ATL on 6/20 and assigned outright to Gwinnett (AAA) on 6/22. The Venezuela native has 282 G/2 GS over 9-year MLB career with SD (2017), CWS (2018-23), ARI (2023), PHI (2024-25), ATL (2025). 

Salary dump, Dane makes more. 

 Gotta find some nickels for the $100k they gave Evo 

Jesse Chavez was DFAd by Atlanta to make room for Dunning, could this finally be it for him?

Quote

As for Chavez, he’ll go back on waivers for the third time this year. There’s a good chance he’ll clear, elect free agency, then re-sign with Atlanta on a minor league contract. The 41-year-old righty has given up eight runs in as many innings over four MLB appearances this season. He has a 2.05 ERA across 30 2/3 innings in the minors. 

2nd half mofos.

Put in your predictions, bitch about the offense some more, or just admire how Josh Smith can play every damn infield position. He'll probably be behind the plate at some point.

I'm optimistic.

We make the Wild Card .And then we know we have playoff starters, and probably enough good bullpen arms for a hopefully short couple of series. ALCS minimum. Fuck it.  

And somehow Sam is now dead, must have been a helluva AS break.

Rangers prospect Cody Freeman is going to be called up from Triple-A Round Rock tonight, per Bruce Bochy He’s hitting .315 with an .861 OPS with the Express this season.
