Come on nathan, get us out of the 9th and on to detroit!

Nathan got LUCKY there.

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

Still really uncomfortable with Nathan at this point.

 

[kTXe]

Time to give the closing duties to Adams or Ogando. Right now, Nathan is the one glaring weakness on this team.

Pudge is amazing. I wish he had been a Ranger his entire career. If he doesn't make the hall it would be ridiculous.

In honor of Hambone's awesome start to the season:

Although I don't actually get to see the game, I follow the gamecast religiously. It looks as if Yu Darvish is showing the potential JD and NR saw in him. 6.0 IP, 2H, 1ER, 4BB, 4 SO. Once he gets fixes those walks, he is very capable of being a up-and-coming pitcher.

 

[The30YardSlant]

Right now, the Rangers are playing as well as any team I've ever seen. They are absolutely DESTROYING one of the top 4 teams in baseball in their yard.

 

[dargonking999]

Im starting to think that the Rangers like the 8th inning, anyone else agree?

If I disagreed, I'd be statistically wrong.

 

[cowboy_ron]

The Rangers are about as hot as a team can get

 

[cowboyeric8]

It's great to be a Rangers fan right now. I hope to sit back and relax all season and just enjoy winning. I'm hoping for 100 wins at least.

This team and organization deserves a title. I hope they can get it done.

They are set up to be contenders for years to come.

Nolan Ryan has proven he knows his stuff...

This team is built for years to come... hopefully we aren't the Braves of the 90's...

Another solid start by Yu. Still has some control problems with all the walks but that will probably be an issue all season long. It was genius to ease him into the MLB by making him a #4 starter though. The offense should be able to help him out every start facing other team's #4 starters.

Yu will work through them I think... when he is on, he has some of the nastiest pitches I have ever seen...

Enjoy the ride as long as you can, is what I say.

I just hope the team stays fun and I hope the fans don't become anxious like they so quickly became with the Mavericks.

That guy can make people look silly. He just doesn't have command of his 4 seamer right now it seems. Some nice gifs of his strikeouts:

Nolan is the anti Jerry.
