And now we go to the frustration of Seattle where Seager and gang will have season high games again against us but they lose to the Angels. We need to take 2/3 from the M's but when was the last time we did that?

They are a better team than their record & always give us fits. We need to find a way to take that series for sure.

We are very fortunate we play in the AL West. We would have nowhere near that record if we were in one of the other divisions...unfortunately this is becoming pretty clear that while we may be good enough to compete in our division, we will struggle at crunch time against the Tigers, Red Sox, rays, etc...my opinion, and it's not worth much...

We've always struggled against certain teams like Chicago, Minnesota, and Toronto for some reason while being able to beat better teams that you mentioned. They're good enough to compete against the other teams. This has been going on for years.

Rangers won the season series against the Tigers, Red Sox and lead against the Rays. We also took the season series from the Yankees. The O's and Toronto tore us up this year.

Yeah. But let me ask, was this when we still had a semi-healthy Berkman. And now we've got the Cruz problem too.

Nice inning from Ross. Maybe he's back to where he was earlier in the year.

So the offense sucks two games in a row, and Garza has back to back efforts of 5 runs allowed vs shitty teams. That's always good.

Well, we didn't lose any ground.
Let's hope from some good news about Martin

I think we're going to find these teams a little more difficult come play off time...yes, we have done well against them in the past...

I would say it's a bit concerning, but that didn't go to well for me the first time.

Everything is roses!
