It all seriousness, you guys have put together one hell of a lineup.
If you could find some legit pitching you might be able to challenge Big Bro someday.
See you after the All Star break. Hope ya'll rest up.
That's big talk from a team that's still 3 games back and battling their own pitching issues. Good series.
Weird how the rangers took 2 of 3 in houston against your top 3 with your biggest bat. I expect both GMs to address some things at the deadline. Neither of these teams are going anywhere from what I can tell. Should be a fun 2nd half.

No Altuve, slow start Bregman, slow start Tucker, slow start Abreu.
But yeah, you did light up the Astros top starters.
Rangers haven't even faced a full strength Astros team yet.
I honestly feel for y'all losing DeGrom. I feel really bad for that guy. However, can't believe y'all signed him to that deal with his history injury.

Ok and we didn't have Seager the first go round… sorry your team is getting old and becoming injury prone.

You've got FOUR starting all-stars! You've got career years up and down the lineup while we've lost a TON of starting pitching, Altuve out the first two months with Abreu hitting like a pitcher during that time, and after all that crap you have a measly 3 game lead. Congrats???

Despite the talent Texas has its flaws. Its biggest is obviously the bullpen. As far as the all stars having "career years", 1 is a rookie, wouldn't call that a "career year" yet. Seager has always been an elite hitter, the ban on the shift has helped. Semien is a pro and has been an elite 2nd baseman for a few years now, wouldn't call this his career year, more of him in his prime. Heim has taken the next step in his career and entering into his prime. Anyone who paid attention last season could see this coming though. Duran and Taveras will be next year.
Again, sorry we have a more talent than you.

I thought that was fairly obvious. You're not as good as your start. You're on a downward trend. You just lost a very important 4 game series.

Well no **** Sherlock. The point is the Astros have too. Y'all made up zero ground in a month where the rangers struggled. A lot of those losses are due to them leaving an ungodly amount of runs on the bases. They'll get hot again. Better hope your Astros can keep up.

In his world, pitchers never make adjustments on their approach to hitters. Heck, look at Peña for us, MVP of the ALCS and World Series (those are games played after the season Rangerettes) and now he gets a steady diet of sliders that he needs to stop chasing.
Baseball is a game of adjustments, something that Arlington fan will soon learn. Just ask the Yankees after their first half last season.

Honest question. You guys really think your pitching will keep this up? Framber and Javier have been shakey lately and you wanna talk about career years and over performers? Let's looks at your 3-5.
