Rangers 2011 season thread

[BP]

I'm pretty sure this fucking organization has a personal vendetta against me. I never get accepted to join the cool club.

It's no guarantee, I'm in the same virtual waiting room I was in for tickets last year. This time though it's a presale:wink1:

[Big Dad]

Looked like there were many empty seats ?

Elvis had a clutch to to really break the game open, which followed a nice clutch hit by Gentry. If the Rangers hold on, I think this will be the first time this season they are 20 games over .500.

In the words of the immortal Elvis.


Booosh

8-3 tejas!!

Season is winding down. Pressure is not winding down.

This is great time of year to be a baseball fan of the Rangers. Far from over, decent chance of postseason ball with a talented Angels team very close in the standings. They are also saving Weaver for the final game of the season, so I heard on the radio.


I would love to see this season wrapped up before the final 3 games. In a perfect world, they would clinch on the 23rd... I will be there, and my b-day. Too much to wish for?

It will really piss me off if a team with a measly ~+30 run differential wins the goddamn division.

It's because you're a fucking jinx.

Just got my passcode for the ALDS presale, I might actually get tickets this year without having to sell my kidney!

15 games left in the season

In good news, the Angels have dropped their last two, while the Rangers won on Sunday, giving them a 3 game lead again.

[Nash B.]

He played out of his mind last season, just like the rest of the team.

[Vertnut]

I am pretty sure he had missed 40 games.



Correction 35 game stretch. So when you include random games lost, it is around 40.

He played in 133 games last season, and he's played 104 so far this season. There's 16 games left. Last season was by far the most games he's ever played.

[mstng86]

He's got 425 at bats, so he hasn't missed but a few weeks. Napoli has 100+ fewer at bats, but 6 more HR's.

With the exception of last year, Hamilton is very inconsistant.

I am pretty sure he had missed 40 games.
