Goodness that is quite the Mario run
Mr Gigem said:
How in the world could anyone be upset right now?
First time on TexAgs?
Well true, but I did say "relatively". Sborz only allowed one hit, walked nobody and struck out 4. That's a welcome change from earlier in the year!joshpettett said:WestTexasAg said:
What if I told you dudes a month ago that not only are we going to win the World Series, but the bullpen would be a big part of us winning it and Josh Sborz would cruise through a relatively stress free final 7 outs to save it?
Relatively stress free? Compared to what, hostage negotiations?
We had a 1-0 lead for 4 of those 7 outs, and a guy on base the final out of both the 7th and 8th innings.

May have already been asked but will there be a live stream of parade or on BSSW?
This is too perfect.

will Creed be in the parade?
That would be epic. Would be cool for Pantera to have a float also.
Also on Fox 4 in DFW starting at 11am.dave94 said:Bally Sports at noon.The Brazos Kid said:

If they head down Randol Mill a couple of miles, they can see Dimebag Darrell.
Any of you fools at AT&T way and Randol Mill?
Dad are we there yet?
Estimates of a quarter million being there.
No. Thank. You.
No. Thank. You.
Would suck if you had plans to go to Six Flags today
Was looking back through the start of the thread and saw this, I completely forgot about Josh Smith getting nailed in the face with a pitch.aggietony2010 said:
Ouch.Josh Smith was hit in the head with an 89MPH sinker. Medical staff came out and he walked off the field under his own power. Scary stuff for Smith and the Texas Rangers. pic.twitter.com/XEBhN3chL9

But looking back through the first 10 or so pages, man all the signs of a special season were there. The first 2-0 start to a season since 2011, the most runs scored over the first 2 games since 1900, sweeping the defending NL Champions, etc.
What a season
Be safe and enjoy the parade, those of you who went!!
Don't know when I first posted on the season thread, but I like this one from July 18th.94chem said:toucan82 said:
FanGraphs has the Rangers 6 games worse than expected by BaseRuns
whatever that means
Pythagorean win percentage had them at 116 at the beginning of June. They've cooled off considerably, but even using the modified exponent of 1.81, they are still expected to win 105 games. They are actually on pace to win 96, meaning they are underachieving by 9 wins for the season, which is about 5 wins at present. It's the 800 lb gorilla that nobody is talking about. Run differential. You can't get around it. The Rangers are good, and are significantly underachieving. I politely mentioned this on the Astros thread about 6 weeks ago. My post was deleted. I had no idea why. The Houston thread doesn't even have a staff warning. But then when my posts over here got deleted, I guess I understood. You can't say anything negative about Houston anywhere. So, I'll keep it positive. Houston's biggest problem is that Texas is good.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

My first post was about LeClerc's inability to throw a strike in early May...but I like this one from May 7th.94chem said:beagle2009 said:
Agreed. This team feels resilient. Definitely need to address the bullpen but these mofos have some fight in them.
They win 78 last season with a .500 record in one run and extra innings games. That's a 10 game improvement. They were 18-37.
This was a .500 club that added starting pitching. O/U should have been about 88.5. Much like 2010, not my fault if nobody was paying attention.

Watching parade on TV. I'll keep an eye out for Mr. Gigem. If he doesn't get his premium season ticket holders a signed ball, I'm gonna skewer him.

The vendors are already out of beer, and Texas live is out of all domestic taps.
Oh boy

"Possibly" intoxicated person up a light pole
Parade (Arlington) Police saying there is a person, possibly intoxicated, on top of a sign 25-30' in the air near the 1200 block of Nolan Ryan Parkway. Requested a ladder from the fire department to take him into custody, but sounds like he is down now.

Not big on parades but looking forward to the ceremony in a bit.
Parades are quite spare to me but, I am looking forward to them on the stage!
hopefully the ceremony is better than the parade cuz this coverage is boring af
I hope this link works and apologies if someone already referenced. My brother sent this yesterday. He pitched in the big leagues years ago and is a longtime minor league pitching coach.

You can tell we have not thrown a lot of victory parades here. Seems very disorganized.
High school homecoming parades are better organized than this.
They must be short on vehicles or something.

my favorite part is how they started the newscast like 4 hours ago completely unnecessarily. that first few hours had to have been some of the worst tv in DFW history. oh well, still worth itRoll the Bones said:
