    let's pretend like we're intentionally walking Odor and then hit him in the head instead.

    The Rangers are sitting dead read on every single close pitch... they are the most comfortable lineup at the plate since the 1927 Yankees.

    Sick of all our imperfections getting compounded by a smug, assholish team like the Rangers. **** them, and their ****head fans.

    Odor has to be one of the most unlikeable and unpleasant players in baseball.

    Seriously... there would have been absolutely zero down-side to that.

    Odor goes nuts, gets tossed, likely gets suspended for this weekend's series (or worse if he truly goes nuts).

    Great job by McCullers.

    One real mistake all night.

    Valbuena can take that bat toss on a single with him somewhere else next year... I am thankful he was able to pick up 1B as well as he did, which allowed them to bench the walking corpse of Chris Carter.

    That Fowler trade turned out to be a minus which was unexpected from me. Thought it was a great trade at the time.

    wait what? He was pushing back and feeling for the wall. Had no opportunity for momentum and was as far as possible from 3rd. Pretty damn decent throw, considering.

    People are finding the weirdest **** to complain about..

    No bunt here. Swing the damn bat, can't be giving them outs with how bad we are situationally.

    If they were winning and he didn't have "fire under him", do you still want to fire him?

    If they were 15 games under .500 but he was very "fired up", do you still want to fire him?

    I hope you actually didn't want a bunt. You must be Mr. Hindsight champion.
