    Nolan Ryan had a lot of time on his hands.

    Good point. Rangers didn't even have to give up top prospects to get key pieces at the deadline which lead to believe their system may be seen as deeper by other GMs.

    What exactly is Nolan Ryan's role in the organization?

    An advisor...and his son handles the business end (i.e.-we need more revenue sources so we will move the CF fence in).

    Oh okay.

    Rangers have no respect respect running with a 6 run lead but why should they have respect for the Astros?

    Good. If Hinch or the team is not going to show some type of fight they deserve to be shown up. They just role over for the Rangers. It's pathetic.

    Okay, I'm throwing in the flag for myself. I normally suffer through every loss, but ugh I cant tonight. I'm just cussing at the tv and Gomer.

    This **** is not good for my health.

    Hinch's feminine walk to the mound just instills confidence.

    The problem is we were rolling some what with our new pieces and I'm referring to gurriel and Hernandez but we go with Rasmussen and white

    HA! Hinch just instills no type of confidence especially in this type of situation.

    I agree. The Rangers are way too comfortable but Hinch just won't stand for this.

    Yep. Hinch decides to bench them tonight for whatever reason.

    Every time it looks like maybe this team is starting something, reality punches us square in the face.

    This is just on Hinch. When a team consistently plays poorly in critical games against your division rival with the division at stake then it's on the manager. His egg head approach to performance isn't working with this team, didn't work last year either. 8-24 over the last two seasons. It's absurd.

    You really think the vestibular system has no real effect on baseball?

    LOL at Odor staring at Sipp.
