Gameday Thread: 4/8 vs. Rangers - No Gia, No Cron

[eligrba4ever]

I hate when the commercial starts during Grimm that the Rangers have more runs when I look down at the computer.

[robblin17]

He won't be then either. The problem is no minor leagues to give us something better than Shoemaker and a bullpen that looks to be kinda scary.

Pujols will always be part of the problem. That was the case when we signed him, is now, and will be until he retires. It's not his fault though that Arte offered him that insane contract. Kind of reminds me of Scioscia's contract. Arte likes round numbers.

Cron watches a low pitch and swings at an even lower one?

[Quinlanforthewin]

Pretty crazy how awful the entire offense has been except Calhoun and the Nava/Gentry platoon.  LF looks to be the position of strength this year.  

[NrM]

Maybe it's just my mood today but it feels like everyone is lollygagging out there.

Cron stepping out of the box taking 20 seconds to collect himself after every pitch.

He's poised to break out this year

Salas pitching and Cron hitting are by far the 2 things I dread most when watching this team

[Slegnaac]

Cron'd again

[martinpa25]

Game.

[nando714]

Deshields is very underrated

[Jason]

Here comes another SB for the Rangers

[nando714]

Why am I still watching? It's game 4 and I'm tired of this shit already

How many more days till football season?

[bloodbrother]

Cron just upsets me because he could be a good hitter but he has such a god awful approach at the plate, which boils down to him just deciding to swing at pretty much everything

Trout due up at the bottom of the inning bro. So probably 45 minutes from now.

Our strike-ball ratio has got to be very bad tonight lol

So he has no approach then?

[CaliAngel]

Walks are nice. Especially with the heart of the order coming up.

[Stradling]

We LOVE allowing base runners.

[Jason]

This bullpen is a disaster

[nando714]

Fire Nagy? Am i doing it right ?

[Slegnaac]

Our strike-ball ratio has got to be very bad tonight lol

Not a single 1,2,3 inning tonight

[CaliAngel]

Lucky Beltre just missed that one.

[CaliAngel]

Not a single 1,2,3 inning tonight

 

Pathetic.

[bloodbrother]

Man, did all these guys just peak in 2014 or something? This pen really needs Morin to get back to his 2014 level. He was awful last season and so far this year he hasn't looked good. This pen desperately needs him, Bedrosian, and Rasmus to pitch well. So far that hasn't been the case at all

[nando714]

It's ok guys

Salas getting ready to blow the 7-7 tie in the 9th
