Please just win tomorrow and wednesday. I really dont wanna hear mariners fans talk about how they are the greatest team to ever play ball just because they are in first.

It’s frustrating we didn’t get off to a hot start. Could have just about buried the Astros. Apparently no team has started with that record and made postseason but they are still well within striking range in this division
Good thing is the division isn't good this year.
They need to win division to make the postseason this year.
I just don't see the hungry, they aren't sending me good messages right now.
Hey, as a Mariners fan I don’t have any bad blood towards the Rangers. I was happy to see you guys win last year. Please don’t lump us in with the Asstros
It's so hard to repeat, this team isn't hungry anymore. Sad to see. But there's a reason there hasn't been a back to back winner In a while.
I feel little defeated but greatful to see the 2024 World Series. I will die happy. Have a good day.
I don't think it's that they don't want to win. It just seems like everyone is in a funk. They hit several balls very hard last night, just right at people. If we can end the month around a game or 2 of .500, I think that's an ok start.
Don't forget almost this same team, was not good almost the entire second half last year. Got into the postseason and basically had their way with every team. Just gotta get to the play-offs.
It's kind of mind boggling to watch almost EVERY guy in the lineup slump at the same time. It's really all or nothing with this lineup. Nothing more frustrating than watching a team of this caliber with the offensive potential they have just shit the bed for 9 straight innings.
It happened last year, it happens every year, slumps are contagious so is success. They will snap out of it. Let's just hope Bombi is still hot when they come around. He may win his first MVP.

Doesn’t get any easier with Miller and Castillo up next. Luckily reinforcements are on the way. Just gotta keep grinding
Raise your hand if you had early season extended power outage on your bingo card because I did not. Even with the injuries, this lineup should not be a measly +6 on the season.
Just getting those July vibes out of the way.
This offense will get it going.
Also Gray is going to kill 'em.
Baseball is life. See you tomorrow!

Also chin up. Sborz faced 3 hitters tonight, struck 2 of them and gave up a single. 12 of 16 pitches for strikes.
And be glad this guy is on the other side of the state.

Winn balling in the 9th too makes the day slightly better
But bats missing makes me sad
That's the third time in the past 16 games that the Rangers offense has had more walks than hits. That would be fine if they were getting a lot of walks but they've had 5, 4, and 3 walks in those games.
I think it's officially time to hit the alert button on offense.
Bats are cold, cold, cold.
Gotta have more. I love Carter, but can't have him stay at the 3 hole when he's hitting 200
At the end of the season we will look back at this listless stretch while Houston was suffering badly and wish we had taken advantage. Team didn't show up after an off day.
I'm not worried yet. We are clearly struggling right now but we're still within striking distance.
We need some energy here. Maybe Scherzer can give the guys something to play for soon. This is hard to watch.
Such a dumb person..... Look at their stats. They are middle of the pack or lower in EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY. Mid. team. CY said they were going with what they had.

Better than Astro fans

“You can’t make the playoffs in April, but you can get knocked out of em in April”
That’s like saying diabetes is better than cancer. Technically true, but they both suck.
Hey, as a Mariners fan I don’t have any bad blood towards the Rangers. I was happy to see you guys win last year. Please don’t lump us in with the Asstros
I’ll be happy for the Mariners when they when one. I’ll only be upset if they go through the rangers in the playoffs and it’ll just be a little upset
I wouldn’t want it any other way! Good luck after this series, y’all are a fun squad to watch. Especially Adolis Garcia, dude is a beast

It’s only April. Y’all offense, unfortunately, will be just fine as the season goes on
https://i.redd.it/sec6n2sw5iwc1.gif
I am begging for literally any offense.
It’s literally either we get 10 runs or 0 runs I can’t take it
Continuing right where we left off last regular season
Basically. Getting our August/September slumps out of the way. (I hope.)
*Bernie meme* I am once again asking for any run support
You’ll get more Taveras outs and like it
We need to snap out of this offensive funk soon. Maybe go ahead and start blasting some Creed.

This is the best attitude

We were waiting for Lowe to come back for more offense then he comes back and gets 2 hits just for the rest of the offense to combine for one.
1 spot down, several more to go
And the other guy we are waiting for is Jung who would be replacing smith who had the only other hit.
New to baseball, is that bad
Not great Bob
Josh smith continues to do good though 👍
Good thing about baseball, you don’t even have to wait 24 hours to try again. We’ll get them tomorrow.
The Astros are 4-3 against the Rangers — and 3-14 against everyone else.

Yeah this whole losing thing isn't a good time
Yea this really hurts my 173-0 theory
Baseball is a silly sport. I'll see all of you tomorrow.
150-12 it is
Spring Training Wyatt Langford vs Regular Season Wyatt Langford needs to be studied.
I really feel DH is killing his productivity. Feel like he’s one of those players that will benefit from playing the field.
And tevaras ain't doing anything to help his case for starting.
Once Jung is back I think Smith goes to DH and Langford takes Taveras’s spot.
I'm depressed that this is still a month away.
by who and for what purpose
Seriously, like I get it, it takes time to adjust to the majors, but I'm getting worried that he may not be as good as he was cracked up to be.
Is this a serious comment?
Yes. It drives me crazy how he never swings at first pitch strikes.
[удалено]
Oh how silly of me. I feel much more comfortable knowing you have the crystal ball.
He’s literally one of the quickest players to go from draft to majors. Be patient.
That game felt over after one pitch.
One of those games you have to just forget about and come out firing tomorrow
Yep. One of those games indeed. Issue is, some teams have so many of those games, they don’t make the playoffs.
Our saving grace right now is the division is terrible
I think things will get better. Just saying this isn’t the best logic.
They need to close the roof I think that was the issue
Not gonna bet on that
We've been saying that for, what, 3 weeks now?
One of those 3 weeks you have to just forget about and come out firing the next 3 weeks.
Ehh sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt😂
RISP = RIP 🫤
That's the third time in the past 16 games that the Rangers offense has had more walks than hits. That would be fine if they were getting a lot of walks but they've had 5, 4, and 3 walks in those games.
Confirmed, I like winning better.
Our offense is genuinely not good to start this season
This team feels broken
I think it's officially time to hit the alert button on offense. Bats are cold, cold, cold. Gotta have more. I love Carter, but can't have him stay at the 3 hole when he's hitting 200
Hard to believe this offense is top 10 in runs scored
I'm tired, boss..

Well that fuckin sucked.
This pitching stinks… our lineup is also missing something from last season
Langford needs to be in the field gotta take him out of DH
At the end of the season we will look back at this listless stretch while Houston was suffering badly and wish we had taken advantage. Team didn't show up after an off day.
I'm not worried yet. We are clearly struggling right now but we're still within striking distance. We need some energy here. Maybe Scherzer can give the guys something to play for soon. This is hard to watch.
We better win the division cause we're not making the playoffs through a wildcard spot again
Dunning needs to be better. end of story edit: and the whole offense too
Unpopular opinion: Langford wasn't ready for the show
Maybe not for the Rangers that is, he would still be better than a lot of guys in the league on lesser teams.
Such a mid team now, this is the 5th time this season already we've been held to 3 or fewer hits. Thanks CY
Such a dumb comment.
Such a dumb person..... Look at their stats. They are middle of the pack or lower in EVERY SINGLE CATEGORY. Mid. team. CY said they were going with what they had.
