Rangers

Look for Otsuka to be the closer very shortly.

Agree SGDad, Coco has struggled for the better part of two years. Otsuka showed me something and I personally think Cordero is hurt.

Either way, he has blown four saves already this season and he should be on a short leash.

Is Michael Young awesome or what. He's incredible in clutch situations at the plate. A guy that doesn't want the spotlight. He just comes to the park every day ready to give his all. He's a true All-Star in my book.

IMO this guy is what baseball is about. Agrees to change positions due to Soriano, then leads the league in hitting, and is an All Star. I'd bet my house you'll never see him in the news outside of the sports page.
Stand up guy and great role model.

Panther Dad are you seeing the message board on the East website. Its getting heated. Tell me what you think about it.

I believe this to be true of most of the current roster. Let's hope it's a tradition in the making.

Go Rangers!

If not for the kiddos, I'm gonna be with a Ranger game every night. Jon Daniels has to be given a nod for at least doing sumthin.

How about the aquisition of John Koronka so far! So far, this could be the most important transaction.

Koronka has been superb for the Rangers this year. Him and Padilla have been the most consistent starters they have had this year up until this past week when they started winning.

Now that's funny and serious.

Attention Ranger Fans

Some of you are fixin to get a broken heart...I'm not saying I'm not a fan as well but October's a long way off. CoCo needs a little taste of the food in Oklahoma City. Ditto on Young and Menche as well, Thats what its all about.

Poor sentence structure

Coco Bad

Young & Menche Good

Get it?

JAP -- it looks like the PE message board has been edited by the moderator. Send me a private message about what was there and I'll contribute my opinion -- unless it is inappropriate to comment further. I hardly ever look there.

So.......all Menche needed was a size 12.5 shoe??? Baseball is a funny game! If the fat lady had not already warmed up, hummed a few bars, and belted out a rendition of "The Party's Over", I would suggest an extra 1/2 shoe-size to our entire lineup.

It's a shame that CoCo has done his bad pitching at the same time that Mench is having one of the best weeks in Ranger history. The guy is in a zone!!

CoCo did it again tonight. Came in in the 8th inning behind by 1. He gave up 1 run which made the score 7-5. Rangers score a run in the 9th to make it 7-6. Had he not given up the run in the 8th, game still tied and Cleveland would have to bat in the bottom of the 9th, tied 6-6. When will it end?

Way to go Mench. He hit another home run to give him 7 straight games. They said it's the most ever in a row by a right handed hitter!! Now that's awesome. He's on fire right now. Wish we could say that about CoCo!!

CoCo needs bigger shoes!

HOW BOUT THEM RANGERS!! Millwood gets the first complete game of the year for Texas and Mench hits another dinger! That's 6 in a row now. We actually have some pitching now it appears. Should be a fun summer watching these guys play.
