And we have a real pitching coach in Brent Strom. Most of our pitchers have shown some form of improvement due to Strom unlike your Astros castoff Doug Brocail.Ag2012 said:And his HR/9 and HR/FB are the highest of his career, xFIP and BB/9 are highest in a decadeFarmer1906 said:By year over year you mean he's not replicating his 2nd place Cy Young finish from last year. Big deal.Ag2012 said:
Big picture: year over year his walks are up, strikeouts are down, home runs are up, ERA and FIP are up. And y'all are on the hook for most of a salary no one else wanted to pick up.
His K/9 % is 3rd highest of his career.
But keep trying. Eventually, you'll stumble onto something.

Oh wow a pitching coach
His HR/FB is 14th in the league, better than any starting qualified Rangerette. Same with xFIP. He just set the bar so high and struggled early, he may not meet his lofty lofty standards of his prime.Ag2012 said:And his HR/9 and HR/FB are the highest of his career, xFIP and BB/9 are highest in a decadeFarmer1906 said:By year over year you mean he's not replicating his 2nd place Cy Young finish from last year.

But is this really all you got? Nitpicking this obvious excellent move by the best team in the AL. I guess that is as good as it gets when your double digits back and no one cares about your team.
Oh man, really bringing the fire nowQuote:
Rangerette
9th place
Let's enjoy sip fans throwing trash on their field as they lose to Maryland.
I did enjoy that. I also enjoyed taking game 1 of the DH. Win # 81. Arlington is on pace for 81.titanmaster_race said:

How does that make yall Arlingtonites feel?
Funny that you only show up after the series is over. Such a poon.
Did we play yall recently? The opponents all kind of blend together. When you win at over a 60% clip, it doesn't matter who you play. However, I try to pay attention for teams that matter for the postseason like Boston & Cleveland.gigem1223 said:

I don't know or care what that number is. All I know is 81-53 >>> 67-67.gigem1223 said:Farmer1906 said:Did we play yall recently? The opponents all kind of blend together.

Ah yes, bringing up what I can only assume is the head to head history. Not sure how that will help the rangers make the playoffs.

Well the Rangers do lose more than the Astros this year.
You might want to click on that link. That's an Astros fan page and Rangers fans have nothing to do with it.titanmaster_race said:TV Casualty said:CorpsAg11 said:

Meanwhile the Did the rangers lose page has the following hashtags; Anybody but Dallas 2017, Never DFW, Friends don't let friends compliment Dallas, Fort Worthless, arLOLington, and Church of the Freeze.
Pathetic obsession confirmed.
Daddy back up to a 15 game lead. After all that "collapse" Arlington can't even pick up a game.
Astros had a minor collapse, Rangers had a massive prolapse

Don't look now, but Oakland no longer has a chance to win the AL West division.
Magic number of 10, 11, and 12 for the Mariners, Rangers, and Angels.

It is going to feel great on Sept 14th when we lock up the division with 3 weeks of the season left.
If that is accurate then it is now 8, 10, 11.Mr.Ackar07 said:

It's pretty late in the season from a comfort standpoint, but boy it's be awesome to clinch the division in Arlington during that last series in late Sept.
How poetic would that be to do it there during the series that they didn't want to play here?

We will have already clinched the division by then. However, we may be able to mathematically eliminate Arlington from the 2nd wild card then.
Past his prime went 6 IP, gave up one run, and picked up win #11.Ag2012 said:*adding an overpaid, past his prime middle of the staff guy to a totally busted rotation in a last ditch effort to make it out of the ALDS.Farmer1906 said:Ag2012 said:And yet he's OPS'd .888 against the Astros for his career.

I couldn't stand Chris Carter, but he was actually good at drawing walks. Odor is basically good at nothing. And locked into a $50 mil contract...
He really tries his best to impress Daddy in yalls World Series.
We're too busy having the best record in the league, adding an ace for a run at the actual World Series.
More importantly though, I think we can all rejoice in texas getting ****housed at home by a bad B1G team today.
