ONE EFFING GUY……ONE EFFING GUY……. ONE EFFING GUY
That's literally been the theme of our last few losses. Our total inability to get one really hot / scorching hitter out who keeps beating our pitching staff around all night like a red headed step child.
Yordan made our pitching staff his ***** for 2 games and he literally passed the mantle to this langeliers guy. I'm surprised we didn't walk langeliers with 1 out already and he's the only guy who's done any damage at all tonight. The rest of the A's team have hardly gotten any hits.
These last 3 losses have been very excruciating. Lots of choking and bed ****ting.
Losing to this minor league team pisses me off.

Four through nine in the lineup were 2-21, and those two hits were solo homers.
I'd like to strap Jose LeClerc to a rocket and send him into outer space so I don't have to see him again. We can't keep doing this, and I have to imagine Bochy and Chris Young feel the same way more and more each day.

Going to tomorrow's game with my sights set on the replica trophy. How early do y'all think I need to get there to be part of the first 10,000?
Always best to be there when gates open

The Evan Carter bobblehead giveaway (15,000) on Monday lasted about 40 to 45 mins after gates opened. Get there early before gates open or right at 5pm and you should definitely get one.

The Orioles are calling up Jackson Holliday. Not sure exactly where he's going to play but really exciting, and really exciting how much young talent is in the game right now. Carter better hit the gas pedal soon, and Langford needs to find the power stroke, because Holliday is going to be the odds on favorite to win ROY.
I've felt Carter needs to leadoff since playoffs last year. His ability to get on and run the bases would be greatly enhanced having Semi and Seags behind him to move him over.
Holliday is going to play 2nd.
I do think Bochy will have to get creative with the lineup a bit until we are more healthy. There's just too many holes at the moment. Getting Lowe back will be a big boost.
Bochy isn't moving Semien from the leadoff position
I'm not saying he's going to, but it should at least be considered vs Righties. If Carter is on first and Semi can hit a double, more often than not Carter can score.
As you have said, I think it's a fair question, especially with how thin we are at times. Bochy isn't going to move Semien, but I would like to hear his reason why.MrCoachEricTaylor said:

I went to bed early only to wake up and see we coughed it up.
My first thought: "I bet LeClerc........"
Then I opened up the box score and yeppers.

The Frisco RRs have had a good start to the season (3-1), lead by Abi Ortiz, Max Acosta and Liam Hicks. Abi Ortiz in particular has had a great start, with 5 hits, 2 doubles, a homer and 4 RBIs in 15 ABs. He's also got 3 BBs to his name. Those three guys above are probably the ones to watch with Frisco, along with RP Anthony Hoopii-Tuionetoa. Outside of that it's really just a bunch of JAGs.
There's a few pitchers on their roster that have promise. Jose Corniell, Josh Stephan, Emilino Teodo, and Dane Acker.
Really hopeful Abi turns into someone, unlike that Curtis Terry guy from a few years ago
Forgot about Teodo. He's got the stuff for sure.
I have Jake Matthews throwing out the first pitch for A&M Night on May 28th. Reveille will be delivering the ball.
Get your tickets now!

Any parking tips? Should I buy a pass beforehand Or should I just get parking at the game like usual? Before covid, id usually just park at the Sheraton.
Wow that is really cool.Mr Gigem said:

Texas A&M Night and Adolis Garcia Bobblehead Night! Whoop!
Is there any way to get the A&M jersey if we already have tickets or do we have to buy the theme night ticket?
You can purchase a theme night voucher if you have already purchased tickets to that game. I can help you get that if you want ti email me. jchance@texasrangers.com
Here is the pitch chart from Leclerc's outing last night. Note the two pitches farthest to right (yellow & brown dots). First 2 pitches of inning. Set the tone. pic.twitter.com/2jHYv8E9Y1

Is the roof open, tonight?
LeClerc has always struggled to throw strikes. Last year he was in the bottom 9% in terms of his BB%, and this year he's been even worse, being in the bottom 4%. I just don't know how he can be your closer with a BB% like that. On top of that, his Zone% is 40% the past two seasons, with his career being 43%. He simply doesn't throw enough strikes.

It was pouring down when I posted.
And now you are pouring a drink, yes?
Parked at 5pm... at 5:20 as I was about to go through the metal detectors they came out and said they were all gone.
Not surprising.
As I was parking The Fan said Bascick indicated that there are probably 20k in line before gates opened.
Disappointed to not get one, but exciting to see the enthusiasm. Resale prices were pretty cheap so when you saw a guy walking back to his car with 8 of them... you knew they were headed for eBay. LoL

Think I'll just sit back and relax for a couple Innings at GLF. Got a couple cold $1 dogs. Life is good.
Biggest thing I miss about being able to go to games is $1 dog night on Wednesdays… used to go any Wednesday I could…
There's still dollar hotdog night….
I probably ought to check my receipt. LoL
About to grab a few more.
