I know it feels like it's just us, but every team is dealing with injuries. And every other team has played the same amount of games.

So the "our guys are tired" excuse drives me crazy. Every team is tired. Every team has multiple injuries.

This. It's a silly excuse.

Of all the people who should be chastising or trying to motivate the team, Maldy should be at the very back of the line. Get your own house in order first lardass

this is true

but the 2022 team was not perfectly healthy either in the starting lineup

Brantley missed 98 games
Pena missed 26 games
Yordan missed 27 games
Altuve missed 21 games

however the pitching was so good the player position injuries didn't hurt as much

So those on the thread expecting a team meeting with the most respected player apparently in the clubhouse got their wish

If we win 3/4 against Boston I think that would right the ship a bit. But that's asking a lot

I 100% support Maldonado as a leader and respectable player. He just shouldn't be an every day starter. He needs the 2017 Beltran role (minus the cheating)

If we move Uncle Mike in and Singleton out - who plays first base?

I don't know what we were expecting. We pantsed them in the playoffs last year. Of course, they were always gonna be coming for revenge this year.

Maldonado is exactly who we think he is and he's living up to expectations. Dude cannot hit and that's nothing new. His batting average was .186 last season and .172 the season before that. It's not his fault that Dusty keeps trotting him out there.

His house is already in order. You can't expect something from him that he just can't do.

although I guess the move would be to send Julks back to SL

So Brantley will be called up when Abreu returns.

Never thought I'd be glad to see Abreu back but man aside from a decent eye Singleton is lost

Rangers having some Astroitis right now. They're not just losing, it's a comedy of errors.

Sliver of fun to be had today.

Seattle playing for championships in the regular season is their thing.

Jon takes every hack like he's trying to launch one into orbit.

There's no bat to ball skills and sense of the situation.

I know everyone loves to pile on Dusty and he deserves a lot of criticism but Bregman is in decline, they didn't get what they wanted out of Abreu and Peña has struggled. Brantley has been out too and we needed his steady contact in this lineup. Then you have pitching injuries. It's been bad across the board. Plus improved clubs in the division.

I figured he would be about a .180 hitter but all of his hits would be homeruns. So basically Chris Carter or Joey Gallo

Uncle Mike returns, Abreu visits the chiropractor, and everyone forgets their hysteria soon enough

Singleton provided a little spark and made a good story for himself and the fans. Even just that one game he offered more than Abreu could in his current state.

But the story is over and Singleton needs to go back to where he belongs in AAA and hope Abreu, after some rest, can get back to average production
