I watched last nights game until the 8th inning when the Rangers took the lead 4-3. I had some things I had to do before bed, so I walked away. I went to check the score before going to bed and I just had a rotten feeling in my stomach. I knew something had gone wrong and that is exactly what happen. I didn't even bother to check which pitcher blew the game.

FYI: Rangers game is on. (day game) Final game with the Rays I think.

Middle of the 3rd no score. Colby Lewis vs David Price.

Rangers win 3-0. Colby Lewis went 8 innings, four hits, eight Ks, and two walks. Feliz closed it out.

Rangers were 4-4 stealing bases.

He didn't strike anyone out today, but he did look good. Not like recently, especially against KC.

Should be a good series with Cleveland. Cleveland having the best record in the AL right now. Too bad we have Bush starting tonight. But he can hold his own. Just need the bats to come alive.

CJ Wilson, shoulder discomfort, shut down.





hahaha, just kidding. It's really Brandon Webb. Shocking, huh?

I didn't watch the whole game, but Bush was terrible in the second inning. I mean it was nasty to watch, but he seemed to settle down. I only got to watch it until the Rangers tied the game. It was good to see that they were able to comeback and win it.

It was a good shot in the dark for the Rangers. I mean why not take a chance? But I'm pretty sure you can stick a fork in Webb, he is topping out at 84.

Velocity means nothing at this point. That will come with arm strengthening. Shoulder inflammation though.....even if the inflammation is just coming from not used to pitching in the last two years.....its a troubling sign that Webb won't be ready anytime soon.

Ogando: 6-0

It appears that the report of his demise as made in this thread (twice) was greatly exaggerated (again).

The Rangers are on a tear. Holland looked good tonight. And another night of Hamilton and Nelly longballs. Good to have them back.

Dear Good Derek Holland: Please stick around


Also, Matt Harrison has a kidney stone.

How long does it take to get over a kidney stone? We can't stand much of Bush.

I think it varies from person to person. I pray I never have one. From what I've heard they are very painful.


Bring out the brooms, Rangers sweep the Tribe. CJ was on fired today. Feliz has looked better lately, hope it continues.

Rangers sweep the Tribe!!! One run allowed in the last three games.

EDIT: Two runs allowed, not one.

Gotta like what we are getting from the pitching staff. Still a little concern because of no real history to support what is happening with Holland, Harrison and Ogando, but the same was true of CJ, Colby and Hunter last year. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed. I'm still a little worried about the bullpen. I think Feliz will be fine, but the whether the middle relievers and set up guys can hold up their end of the bargain is a question.
