Tyler Glasnow is good at baseball. Him and McClanahan is a heck of a 1-2, and Glasnow isn't even full back.

This is important. If we can get Hernandez back to anything close to what he was pre-TJ, he can help the Ranger bullpen. His velo seems to be there, but his overall command hasn't been. Maybe he can find it again in AAA.Jonathan Hernandez in his first AAA appearance last night:
— Jamey Newberg (@NewbergReport) June 9, 2023
Strikeout swinging, walk, double play grounder
Strikeout swinging, strikeout swinging, walk, strikeout swinging
Bubba Thompson since his option:
17 PA — five walks, one strikeout
as a followup to this, after Newberg's positive spin on the outing I just noticed Scott Lucas pretty much said meh. Which I tend to agree with, he threw more balls than strikes. Still more work needed on overall command:
Lucas: "Jonathan Hernandez had a quirky night, missing on 17 of 30 pitches and walking two but striking out three. Hernandez now owns the fastest pitch by the Round Rock Express during the Statcast-available 2022-2023: 100.3 MPH. It and nine of his next hardest ten pitches were balls."
Ouch, that ball was crushed...
Dang. 6 RBIs for paredes?
Don't think Spencer Howard is going to work out either…
Dang.
Sky is falling
Have to bounce back tomorrow with Eovaldi on the hill. Big game
Yikes, this is ugly and sad.

First six have reached... no outs.

Yes, because Sunday their starter is 9-1 with a 2.02 ERA
Bleh. If we don't pull a miracle tonight will have to flush this one and move on.
Howard still sucks.
Jimbo Franchione
Probably not coming back from this one but would like to see the bats come to life a little. They've scored 1 run in their last 19 innings.

It's still 1 game of 162. Just like the 3rd game of the cards series. This is why I was so pissed about punting that game. That game is much more winnable at home than any of these 3 against the Rays on the road.
Tavares is the only guy hitting tonight. Think we can get him about 10 more ABs?

small sample so far, but Taveras maybe turning the corner makes me giddy about Rangers outfield for nxt few yrs!
That sound you hear from down south is the collective sphincter cramping from the astros blowing a 4 pt lead. Tied at 5-5 bottom 7th

Again, we're in the middle of a series against one of the best teams in baseball, WGAF about in game updates on that other team.
Yeah and we're losing big. Pardon me if I looked around to find something of interest to the current AL West standings.

Your real issues were jinxing it before they finished blowing it and calling runs points.
Fair point. I will sequester myself in silence and drink a Yuengling in a humble and sincere effort to reestablish my previous good standing with the baseball gods and TA posters.
Or maybe make a run to Lowes before they close at 10:00. Either action should be as pleasing.

I'm thinking you need Lowes and the Yuengling's.... makes the home improvement projects a little more interesting
Astros Cleveland is a textbook example of what NOT to do with a runner on third.
Well not the series opener we wanted, but the lead stays 5.0.

Yep, stros lose in 14.
Yep. Seems we survived the Stros hot streak with our own. Both teams scuffling a little this week. Need to find a W in these next two at the Trop and then bury the Angels.
Back from Lowes and down off the ladder. Just twisted the cap of the Yuengling and was wondering if I missed anything?agent-maroon said:

Lots of "points."

Teams traded free throws until Cleveland got a 2 pointer at the buzzer.
Angels 103+ mph rookie reliever Ben Joyce just blew up his elbow. Crazy part is they let him. He threw a pitch way off the plate and then shook his arm like he felt something pop and then let him throw 4 more pitches before pulling him.

All the news is calling it "right hand irritation". Sounds more like a blister.
Good to hear. Looked for sure like TJ.
