Your 1st Place Texas Rangers

Good job CBL! and the Harrison Kid is only making 400k, so is Davis. To keep some of these guys we are going to have to spend a bit of money... I wonder if Tom Hicks reads this board?

This is a huge series for us, we get Lackey on his first outing since coming off of the DL, he didn't have spring training so I am hoping that he is going to be pretty rusty. Lets hope that the Ranger's bats will wake up before the 9th!

Lackey's thrown rehab starts of 61 and 75 pitches at Triple-A. I'd be surprised if he goes more than 5...and its fun stuff once you get into that Angel bullpen.

I would like to know KRAM's average for being a complete doucher....I bet it's higher that Rangers current ERA....another walkoff win, 6 games over, still in 1st place....soccer can suck it....

Seriously!?!?!?!?!?! A legit baseball thread being hijacked by freakin soccer!?!?!?! It's true, we have became a socialist, no, communist country when something as evil as this can occur right under our noses!!!
Uh...Rangers win again....with decent pitching from what amounts to thier 5th starter. Big series against the Angels this weekend.

I was thinking the same thing. Why does a sport that sucks and people don't like get so much mileage?

They keep stats on that? Who knew?

I would like to point out that this thread is pure gold, and should be considered for the GMG hall of fame. Such a wonderful blend of hate and humor.

Raise your hand if you got a hit off a former major leaguer last night.

?????????????? What am I missing here?

The Ticket played a baseball game last night, and one of own (one of your favorites) got a hit.

Your sure he didn't get hit ON by a major leaguer last night????

*** This is very funny if you remember some of his more recent posts. (Guess it's really not that funny if I have to explain it)***

I plan on keeping this non-soccer post alive as long as the Rangers are in 1st place... so, I'm saying at least for 2 more days.

A scary weekend at the temple indeed.

A scary weekend at the temple indeed.

No Vlad, though... that HAS to be worth at least a few karma points.

7-2 in the bottom of the sixth. Looks like this thread continues through the weekend.

More good pitching.

UNT90 · May 16, 2009

Talking to myself, but the Rangers are now up 10-3 in the bottom of the 8th. Nice to see the offense come around.

Can this thread survive until June?

UNT90 · May 16, 2009

uh-oh.....

hickoryhouse · May 16, 2009

It can and it will survive. So much for the good pitchig with the wunderkind holland getting roughed up a little. Great to see the offense though. And even better not to see glad, at least not until our pitching staff gets used to being decent

Spoke to soon o'day just gave up a homer.

I have faith though. This is going to turn out well for us

UNT90 · May 16, 2009

tying run at the plate. UNbelievable. 2 outs and no one on with a 10-3 lead, and now the freakin tying run is at the plate. Should have pulled Holland 2 batters earlier. He was out of gas. If they lose this, they get swept.
