That's all great and all, but what about performance standards? If anyone needs to be sent packing before the all-star break it's Brofail and Iapoce.
I disagree with that tho. Gallo needs to go down to the minors more than any other player on the team right now.

The problem I see with Iapoce is that the numbers (Runs scored) are in his favor.
Rangers are 6th in AL Runs scored.
2017 - 5th
2016 - 4th
2015 - 3rd
That's a good point. I didn't know that.DallasAg 94 said:I agree._lefraud_ said:DallasAg 94 said:

The eye test tells you that Iapoce is doing a terrible job. We strike out way too much, but runs are what matters at the end of the day.
Watching Ranger pregame - not a word so far.

If Yomen got hazed vy the other Odor, then maybe it was payback time?
Yes, I know I just opened things up for the Stro fans, apologies.
Well it does seem like something a 14 year old would do.

Seriously... aren't you Astros4545's sock?
I know you post with this sock using your phone... and you post as Astros4545 from your computer.
Except that one time you got emotional and posted from your computer on this thread and quickly deleted it.
I know you are trying hard to pretend to be a Rangers fan... but it isn't convincing.

The chick behind home plate is there again tonight. Blue dress. Looks awesome.
The Rangers are 9th in runs scored per game this year. (Rangers have played as many as 6 games more than other AL teams.)Grapesoda2525 said:That's a good point. I didn't know that.DallasAg 94 said:I agree._lefraud_ said:DallasAg 94 said:

Its a downward lurch, after a slower downward trend, and obviously (many of) the younger guys aren't showing development.

She is smokin'.
Just came here to see if anyone else mentioned it. Of course Texags was all over it. I am surprised no one has posted her facebook and instagram accounts.
Gallo is banged up. Needs some time off
In fairness, Guzman (53 GP) and IKF (56 GP) were not supposed to be playing a role on a team that was tanking. And IKF was transitioning to Catcher.TXAggie2011 said:

Our 2 best hitters - Beltre (43 GP) and Andrus (15 GP) have been on the DL.
I'm not defending Iapoce, just noting the approach has changed and I'm not sure we're going back.
They have, but you may have to back a page... or two.CrottyKid said:She is smokin'.wbt5845 said:

Nice butt and legs workout tips.

Sucks that she is a workout warrior but her son is a big fat tubby.
Nice to see IKF taking advantage of his unexpected start tonight.
Wow. What a terrible strike 3 call.
Watching Caddy Shack, instead of the game.
Need a few more of those outings from Cole before the deadline
Great start for Hamels trade value. Pull him
unloading choo, beltre and hamels for prospects and cutting that much salary off the books is a dream come true at this point.
hamels looked good tonight.

I get emotional thinking about Beltre's last game as a Ranger being less than a month away (probably). Maybe the greatest Ranger of all time

Gonna need to unload it to get Kershaw and Harper right?
Beltre and Hamels won't impact salary in 2019... everything in 2018 is a sunk cost.
We got Road Hamels tonight.
If the Rangers were smart, they'd take advantage of the off-day and pitch Hamels @Minn.

Diekman should net us a prospect or 2. He's pitching great.
I just hope Beltre doesn't end up playing for the Astros.Huell Babineaux said:

Well I think we have a damn good closer for the future. Kela has been lights out.
4 in a row

Kela was filthy again

Don't look now.
Rangers are only 18.5 GB.
I'm calling it now... Rangers make the playoffs in 2018.
