The 2018 Rangers season is here!!! Opening Series vs Houston discussion thread

Moore is still garbage.

 

[darrylgann]

Really had high hopes for Moore. Not this day it appears. Too many pitches so far.

 

[DT LUNA]

DDJ not supporting a cast on his hand.

 

[darrylgann]

Short day for Moore

 

[DT LUNA]

Moore needs a shower

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Moore getting squeezed on a few calls.

 

[darrylgann]

A rather efficient inning, Moore. You may go five full innings.

Moore struggled with his location early on and he/we paid for it. But he apparently has good stuff (6 K with no W). So maybe he'll need a few starts and be a positive starter for us.

Well I think that is a very nice thought.

The off season is raising it's ugly head.

 

[DT LUNA]

Later guys.

Boy, this was/is one stinker of a game, pretty much all around, except for Elvis.

But hey, that's why we play em one game at a time, and tomorrow let's get them.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Let's not forget Houston is the reigning champ and the consensus best team this year.

 

[saddles]

I still can’t believe Doug fister is our #2

He might be our #1.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Nice recovery by Bush.

Well with DeSheilds down.......you wanted Profar, you got Profar.......extended playing time ahead IMO

Probably Robinson, Rua, Profar and Tocci get put into a 4 man rotation for 2 OF spots with Rua playing most of the time. If I had to guess I would say Rua gets to start about 70% of the time. Robinson and Profar play about 50% of the time and Tocci plays about 30% of the time.

When Beltre goes down and Profar is needed at 3B then everything changes.

With Delino DeShields heading for surgery, lack of center-field depth has Rangers bracing for 'Armageddon'

There are more reasons than just DeShields being out for us not to expect too much out of this team this year.

 

[donaldson79]

Well, it's almost game time, but I'm anticipating very little turnout today due to several reasons.
