At 1st, I didn't think it was that bad, then realized it was Carter and not Seager in the 2-hole.

I'd have gone with Hill at DH, instead.

In a corresponding move, Texas will select the contract of right-hander Jesus Tinoco from Triple-A Round Rock. Left-hander Cody Bradford is being transferred from the 15-day IL to the 60-day IL to accommodate Tinoco's addition. Bradford has already missed six weeks with a back strain and stress fracture in his ribs.

I think when he left the game early, we all thought something was up. There was speculation getting hit by the ball might have caused the issue.

I'll start worrying about pitching injuries when the offense and defense show up.

Update:

15IL
Gray
Eovaldi

60IL
Bradford
deGrom
Scherzer
Mahle


I'm excited to see what Tinoco can do... you know... a RP we picked up from the Vz Winter League who was in Japan in 2023... that we dumped in 2022.

Don't think we'll see Leiter anytime soon. Aside from injury (which we had) they have a 10 day requirement when sent down, IIRC.

I wonder if knowing Gray was headed to the IL that it took some of the drive from the players.

The IL rotation is a punch in the gut for the players as much as it is the fans.

Gotta step up, though...

If that's their mentality then we are in trouble. Last year we had a ton of injuries but the motto was always next man up. That's why they were able to compete.

It feels like we're a couple of weeks away from open tryouts.

Who had Josh H. Smith batting in the three hole on their preseason bingo cards? Lol

"Next man up" is a good slogan until you start putting guys on the 60 so you can add bodies to the the 40, so you can field a team.

Still next man up, but it can take some wind out of the sail if you are banged up and having to push through, yourself.

Seager with an off day after 2 Es... and he seems to still not have reached 100%. Carter back in the lineup because Adolis can't throw a ball.

You push and grind... but you are still going to struggle and may nit be able to get enough to get it done.

Yeah I hear what you are saying and I agree with it in the aspect of not having enough to win. My thing is more towards the healthy guys. Its hard to blame injuries when a lot of the guys in the lineup can play better. I have no doubt they are trying their best but the fact is they can play better. The team needs to focus on playing clean situational baseball. Let's clean up the mistakes on defense, hit with guys in scoring position, and steal more bases. Once we start doing those things and we still can't win, then I can see how the injuries can deflate the team. No doubt the injuries hurt the team but I to refuse to believe that our current heathy players are only good enough to win 2 out 10 games.

Pitiful ball is pitiful.

Rangers doing themselves no favors today, much like the past few weeks. Gonna be a long season I'm afraid.

Pulling for these guys to right the ship, but it is up to them, not me.

Let's see if Anderson can pull his ERA back under 10 or push it over 11.

Still ahead of the Astros, at least for now. Can you imagine being a sports fan in Houston? No hockey, basketball team is a shoe-in lottery pick every year, Astros appear to have gotten old overnight, so then you put everything you have into the Texans, who have 5 playoff games in franchise history.

Dallas will never have it as bad as Houston.

A lot of times Semien does his best damage on the first pitch in big spots. He just got thrown a terrible first pitch to do anything with.

Twins 3-7 in their last 10. So no excuse of playing a hot team next series. Let's see if we can get 1.
