Texas Toast! Redbirds On Brink of Elimination
Posted on 26 Oct 2011 by Chaz Ingram.
Maybe the Cardinals should have saved some of the 16 runs they scored against the Rangers in game 3 for the remaining games of the World Series. Since that explosion which now seem like eons ago the Cardinals have managed to score only 2 runs in the last 18 innings blowing quality starts by Edwin Jackson and ace Chris Carpenter. Rangers' relief pitcher Neftali Feliz and catcher Mike N...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Josh Hamilton and the Texas Rangers on Paper
Posted on 31 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
Before the start of last postseason, the Rangers had never won a playoff series. In three playoff appearances, they were knocked out in the first round each time by the New York Yankees. After dispatching the Tampa Bay Rays in five games in the ALDS, the Rangers defeated the Yankees in six games to win the pennant. Josh Hamilton won the AL MVP, Neftali Feliz won the AL Rookie of the Year and ...

FBIW#7 The lowly Shortstop rankings
Posted on 25 Mar 2011 by Mo Johnson.
Unlike their double play partners, the shortstop position is very light with the stick. You have 2 superstars, and 1 more player who if healthy is elite. As for the rest, uggh. The fact that the #4 selection is Derek Jeter, who is aging and coming off the worst season of his career tells you all you need to know. You can certainly win a league without one of those front line shortstops, but you...

Posted on 10 Feb 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
UPDATE 3/10/2011—– UPDATE 3/10/2011 Michael Young's unhappiness and desire to be traded has been public for several weeks. Potential suitors have been reluctant to approach due to Young's price tag and his “five-and-ten” impending status. It seems that the Arizona Diamondbacks have renewed their efforts to acquire Young from the Texas Rangers, according to sources includ...

Another loss for the Angels
Posted on 5 Jan 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
After promising an off-season of big changes, either by trades or free agent signees, the Angels took a called 3rd strike. Carl Crawford, Cliff Lee and now Adrian Beltre will not be wearing a Halo uniform in 2011. The Angels made competitive offers to 2 of the 3, but in ended up losing out to 3 different teams. The Angels now get to watch Beltre for the next 5, or maybe 6, years. Yes, Angel fan...

ALCS Preview and predictions
Posted on 15 Oct 2010 by George Kouvalis.
You will have to excuse the Texas Rangers if they don't know how react to hosting an ALCS game, for the simple reason that they never have. You may have to even excuse them for trying to not allow the New York Yankees a chance to defend their title in the World Series. More so, you will have to excuse the Rangers and their fans for not being the gracious hosts like they have been to the Tam...

It’s Time Rangers, Texas finally off to the ALCS
Posted on 12 Oct 2010 by George Kouvalis.
They had to use history to make history but that's exactly what the Texas Rangers did in the 2010 ALDS to finally get the monkey off their backs and win their first playoff series in franchise history. Not one series in baseball history has seen the road team win every game of that series until this one. History be damned the Rangers did that and also won their first playoff series in the p...

Rangers use poise and pitching to win game one
Posted on 6 Oct 2010 by George Kouvalis.
One foul tip. That's it. Momentum gone from having the bases loaded with one out and up one run to the count going 2-2 and leading to Cliff Lee striking out Carlos Pena and Rocco Baldelli to end the first inning. Lee goes on cruise control for seven innings (7.0 IP, 5 hits, 1 ER and 10K's) and leaves with a four run lead and poof that's the turning point of the game. Quite amazing to ...

Pitch to contact for the love of God
Posted on 23 May 2009 by Josh Lile.
Derek Hollands electric first career start looked to be on cruise control for a while. The Astros decided it would be a good idea to go down 5-0, but the Rangers young left hander hung a changeup to Lance Berkman in the 5th with 2 men on that he deposited in the Gulf of Mexico to make it 5-3. He was fearless though. He knew what he needed to throw, but he didn't execute. Here is the proble...
