Taking down just incase it's not a good site

Is that a safe site. Going directly through fanatics.com does not show that pricing

Good point, have no idea. My buddy just sent it to our Rangers text group and figured I'd share

Lot of good jerseys for 37 dollars. Other teams too.

It’s like a game of Clue. This time it was Will Smith, in Anaheim, with a three-run ninth inning.

The Rangers, with a 5-4 extra innings loss, have now blown six leads in the 7th or later in the last 13 games.

Can we freaking change something up? Send some guys down. Call some guys up. Make a trade that isn't too costly but can help make the pen better.

We've already had 6 or 7 huge kick in the nuts type losses. They're going to start wearing the team down if we let the late inning melt downs continue.

The issue here is who are we calling up from AAA? If we had better guys than LeClerc, Ian Kennedy, Will Smith etc. they would have been on the team from the start. I won't argue that Yerry needs to get more innings at this point, but I think it's pretty clear that they didn't think he was better than those mentioned above. You have Cody Bradford but he's a starting pitcher through and through. Grant Anderson is having a good season but he's pitched 7.2 innings. Zach Littell, Joe Barlow, Dominc Leone or Taylor Hearne? I doubt it. We're going to have to get guys through trades, but I highly doubt teams are looking to trade at this early stage of the season.

Funny you mention Littell, we actually sent him to Boston yesterday:

today's Scott Lucas email has more on the Littell move:

"Texas traded reliever Zack Littell to Boston for cash, an interesting move in light of the parent club's bullpen troubles of late. Littell apparently had a contract clause that compelled a trade if another club was willing to place him on the MLB roster, with the Rangers having a right of first refusal to promote him themselves. Texas declined that option and accepted the trade. I'd mentioned him as the best of Texas's offseason relief depth additions; opponents were batting only .196/.229/.283. His velocity was down slightly from prior years, and the batted ball data showed a little luck. His MLB career contains intermittent success with occasional control issues and persistent homer worries. Would he be better than Leclerc in general and Smith last night? Sure, but who wouldn't? Would he be an improvement on typical outings from those two? Far less likely. An improvement on Josh Sborz? Heh, well, now maybe we're getting somewhere. Perhaps Littell would have been a net improvement to the Texas bullpen, but I was never of the thought that keeping him in AAA was inexcusable."

Good to see us get a runner with less than 2 outs

Good inning

Need at least 8 more insurance runs for me to feel safe

Well my feed for the game is in a rain delay

Need to just let Eovaldi throw the complete game.

Call up Leiter and Rocker. Let them learn their craft in the bullpen at the highest level. Better than what's been going on.

Ok going to the 9th. Now in worried

Let Eovaldi throw 120 pitches

Choose your own adventure: Smith, Leclerc or Hernandez . . .

Nice insurance run

Bullpen won't matter now

Eovaldi is a freaking stud

Neto may be good one day but he cannot throw to first to save his life.

LAAAAAAAAA fans booing their own team. They don't deserve Ohtani and trout. Trash franchise.

Hopefully that is enough insurance

They're letting Davidson wear this one.

Are we good with LeClerc for the ninth, or more runs needed before we go there?

Are we seeing another position player pitching?

Cluster ****.

Yes. Bring In Leclerc

Is this the 4th time this year?

Bring him in. If he can't pitch with 0 pressure then trade him immediately. Even if it's for a single A guy.

*******it

I know our relief is bad, but they should be able to hold a 10 run lead.

As soon as I say that HR

Go from 3-0 with two outs, to losing 5-3.
