Dude, we won 95 last year and got the ALCS, :lmao:

He was like this all of last year too, we will win 4 in a row and he'll come back to the light side again....for a bit.

 

[manchild98]

We were also 4th in all of MLB in runs scored...behind Boston, the Yankees and Texas.

Then couldn't hit for shit in the post season either, these guys don't like it cold, the only problem is they play in Detroit and it will always be cold in the post season. Different year same result.

Wow, after a loss and I'm almost in a good mood.

Thanks for making me laugh my ass off at your silly rants.

:clap:

Eh...better check your facts.

 

[manchild98]

Just to put it in perspective...we are in first place at 10-6 and have the 2nd best win percentage in the AL and we haven't played that well. We've played some tough opponents...playoff contenders. 90% of the season still remains. Texas is probably the best team in baseball and they've been to the WS the last 2 years. No reason to be really pissed yet.

I did again. I'm looking at espn and it says we were 4th in runs scored in 2011. Is it wrong?

Other than there is no excuse for not winning this one today, just need a little damn offense, f'\k man Lewis had like a 7+ Carrerr ERA against us before today, no excuse for this horse shit over agreesive offense, not one single walk today from the bats in 11 innings. unacceptable.

Oh, I thought you meant this year.

 

[manchild98]

Ok. My reply was because he said we had the same shitty offense that we had last year.

Webvideo replay with what sounds like the rangers announcers, "didn't hit the batter in the box" bs

 

[zoombabyzoom]

Fielder and Cabrera need to have a bigger impact I think

 

[Mitchrapp]

Power numbers are a bit down.

 

[Mitchrapp]

But we still have too many holes on offense.

 

[biggunsbob]

The solution is easy for now....Santiago and Worth platoon at second base until we can find a replacement or maybe it works...DFA Inge.. It has to be done..

I don't recall Texas announcers being that homerific, but that was exceptionally homerific.

Some of us watched last nights game on slipstream, and the game stream was Japanese, but with the Rangers announcers.

And on at least 3 occasions, the Texas guys argued a call someone got (Benoit twice) that was not a strike, only to have the MLB network box pop up and prove them wrong. They even admitted to it once.


But I think if you look at it, every teams announcers are homers, because they have to play to their audience.

The only really, really, over the top guy I can think of is Hawk.
