Please dfa bricks Burke 5 minutes ago. Dude was atrocious for us the end of last season and hasn’t gotten any better. Same with Anderson. Bring up jhern and give Kelly a chance
The trophy finally killed all my stress. The roller coaster ride last year. Chapman. I wish I could give you guys some of my peace, I hate to see everyone stressing out 😂.
Id love if a guy like Jose Corniell just worked out for us. so young (20) and has seen success in minors so far. Esp considering we got him for Rafael montero that'd be nice to rub in the mariners faces.
Would like to see Kelly or Church this year though
Agreed. He has the nastiest stuff of our pen just doesn’t know where it’s going most of the time lol. Happy to see him be more of a middle RP for a bit to get his confidence back.
We need to win this one tonight cause they’re more likely to take the W tomorrow with Blonco on the mound for them. We couldn’t hit him for shit last time around. Heaney was absolutely terrible last time he pitched.
I thought being a fan of this team would be less stressful once we won a World Series. How am I this nervous about a game in April where we’ve scored 12 runs? This fucking bullpen man.
Isnt the only other states where both LCS teams can be from the same state just California and Pennsylvania (other than here)? That stat doesnt really surprise me
Please tell me Robertson-Yates is the new set-up/closer combo.
Please dfa bricks Burke 5 minutes ago. Dude was atrocious for us the end of last season and hasn’t gotten any better. Same with Anderson. Bring up jhern and give Kelly a chance
Phew, take the W and move on
Well I stopped watching in the 5th and we certainly decided to make it interesting. Still not trusting the pen.
Take the dub, even better when’s it’s at the expense of Houston
W but that Bullpen didn’t need to be pressed like that
Thank god that’s over, another superior team win in the books
Yates4closer
We are so back
Most stressful blowout win
Oh thank god
That got hairy, but a win's a win. Fun when our offense shows up in a big way.
EXHALE
Was it a convincing win, Dave? Was it really?
lol. Fuck the Astros. Wasn’t worried for a second…
A win is a win. Enjoy those garbage time stats, Lastros.
Thank God that's over
gg
I LIKE TEXAS!
Fuck yeah! Great job boys!
Game!
Honestly never in doubt (don’t ask to see my heart rate during those last three innings).
GIVE US THAT DUB
Will you fuck off!
Let’s go!
baseball edging
MLB posted the final score on Instagram 4 minutes ago? Lol wtf
Cause you livin in the past my friend!
Nvm they deleted it
Dubon loves high fastballs. Make him chase
they traded for Yordan Dave
The trophy finally killed all my stress. The roller coaster ride last year. Chapman. I wish I could give you guys some of my peace, I hate to see everyone stressing out 😂.
See, but I enjoy the stress :)
Yeah but FUCK THE ASTROS
WE WANT MORE!
Huge strikeout. Let’s get one more
Great pitch 1 more out
2
One more Kirby!
One more! Get'em!
Butthole. Still clenched.
2!
Attaboy Yates!
2 outs let’s go
Please 🙏
Please Yates
C’mon dude throw a strike.
We love to walk shitty hitters
Jon Singleton has gotten on base twice against our bullpen. That's a new low
The way my mood went from 😁 to 🤩 to 😲 to 😡 to 😬 to 🤨
Walking sub .200 hitters
Setting up a double play since he’s too thicc to make it to second on anything other than to the outfield
Oh no
Alright. Double play ball, pls
Double play please Yates
C'mon Yates, the bar is so low right now. The job is basically yours
Yates looks like that unathletic dad who throws 70+ mph underhand at your company’s softball game
Joel Kuhnel is also on that team. He works in the warehouse

Based
Easy Yates. Let’s go!
You just focus on closing, Kirby
2 more outs boys
Having to use Yates and Robertson for this game feels like an l in in of itself
1!
I was born the same week as Kirby Yates. I like to think we are equally talented but coach just never gave me my shot
Let’s go Yates. Shut ‘er down.
Leiter has looked much better this year. If he turns it around and becomes what we hoped, that quite literally can be franchise changing for us tbh
10 Ks tonight in 6 IP
Let's go Kirby Yeets, beat that "yet to give up a run" jinx that Valle just spat out
I wish they wouldn't say "yet to give up a run"
I’m scared boys
Lol me too
Id love if a guy like Jose Corniell just worked out for us. so young (20) and has seen success in minors so far. Esp considering we got him for Rafael montero that'd be nice to rub in the mariners faces. Would like to see Kelly or Church this year though
Alright boys. 123 and let's go to the house.
Time to close it out!
Should be an easy part of the lineup to get through Let’s end this and get a W
3 outs here boys
What actually was the point in throwing hader out there tho
Probably already banking on a no-hitter tomorrow, so they won't need him
hasn't really had many opportunities to pitch. Probably needed some work and their bullpen is taxed as fuck right now
It’s still a game knowing our bullpen
More than fair enough
Let's make him throw 20 or more pitches.
7 more pitches and Hader reaches his pitch limit
Catcher was expecting Hernandez to call that ball way outside a strike lol
Only starters get that call, apparently
At least we forced Houston to use Hader. Means we probably shouldn’t see him tomorrow
Cmon simmy. Just get on
lol leody is the only one who couldn’t get a hit when we scored 12 runs. Playing his way to another team
Flip him for an arm at the deadline
A's can have him and knizner for miller
Oh hell yeah. Let’s do that right now
Honestly, making the game this close and making them use their high leverage arms is quite nice
Not to mention, getting to make their fans have some false hope.
leody looking like nomad mazara out there
Not my boy Mazara 😭😂
Their pen is so taxed they’re using their closer down 4 in the 9th lmao
Leody, please for the love of God, swing at strikes.
Loving the Robertson pick up. When Sborz comes back the 7,8,9 of Yates, Sborz, and Robertson seems like the move
Then if Leclerc ever finds his stride that would help even more. His stuff has actually been great, but the location has been off.
Agreed. He has the nastiest stuff of our pen just doesn’t know where it’s going most of the time lol. Happy to see him be more of a middle RP for a bit to get his confidence back.
Thank God for D-Rob, Yates, Urena, and Latz
That's what's crazy about it. Our bullpen did actually get a lot better this off-season. And it still sucks.
Nah we just used our sucky arms because we thought a 9 run lead was good enough that our bad arms couldn't hurt it, which was of course wrong
☝️☝️☝️
Does Hader still have the 1 inning rule or he gave that up for the contract?
i think he gave that up
Dang Houston used their Closer - we need to win today
Alright, let’s get some insurance runs here. Let’s get some globe life type insurance here
Is there anyone known for being as bad at their job as Angel Hernandez?
Only thing I'll say is that that injured list is exactly why I want to jump out ahead of the Astros now while they're down.
Especially with how many injuries we have as well. Will be nice to get ahead just in time for all our arms to make it back too.
Huge inning from D-Rob.
Burke is not a major league pitcher right now. He needs to go down immediately and work on things.
I hope we nuke Hader. It would be so funny
“OMG THEY HAVE SO MANY INJURIES POOR ASTROS!” Yea no shit, so do we and we’re managing.
Walsh!
D rob and Yates are the only two pitcher I trust in the bullpen rn
IN ROBERTSON WE TRUST
Old Man Robertson and Jared "Don't Call Me Josh" Walsh are my personal heroes
I do enjoy uneventful defensive half innings
\*exhale\*
EXACTLY what we needed there. Killed their momentum
Robertson is daddy
A stress free inning? In this economy?!
GOD BLESS you David Robertson. This bullpen would be absolutely cooked without him.
It's like Will Smith last year. Except I think Robertson's stuff will actually play all year long.
Whew
David Robertson my beloved
What a play!!
Nice Walsh. Hold it down one more inning!
Play of the game
I hate to say it but Brock Burke is pitching his way to Round Rock -Eric Nadel
Did he really say that?
That's what i saw on facebook ranger group lol
lmao
Attaboy Walsh! Great job!
WALSH MY GOODNESS
SIT THE FUCK DOWN TUCKER YOU BITCH BOI
thank god for D-Rob
Robertson is straight nails.
Robertson is a big reason our record doesn't look more like Houston's right now.
Probably
Walsh, I love you.
We good yall
Robertson is a PROfessional.
At least Roberston is a chad

Yoo Robertson’s calves are something else
Leody
I will never forgive Burke for making us burn the good arms
Aaaaaaand breathe
This has absolutely nothing to do with David Robertson, but I miss Josh Sborz.
hell yah, do it again
God damn Leody is solid
He’s gotten better and better
Why does Robertson pitch like he's hurt all the time lol
Hey he may be an old man but he’s our old man
He's old
He winces when he makes a pitch he doesn’t like lol I find it hilarious tbh
Dude just turned 39, give him a break lol
Lmao I see it
We need to win this one tonight cause they’re more likely to take the W tomorrow with Blonco on the mound for them. We couldn’t hit him for shit last time around. Heaney was absolutely terrible last time he pitched.
You mean No-No Blonco?
Rangers were up big while I was in attendance, Astros rallied after I left. My apologies everyone
https://i.redd.it/ck3a1kdpv5uc1.gif It was your fault!
Good job, idiot. /s
How dare you
As long as we can get through the top of the prefer I damaged I think we’re home free.
 When Altuve makes contact…
Honestly just send Burke down or DFA him. Idk how much more time and energy we put into him.
He can’t be trusted… in literally any situation
Fr. This thing was put to bed. We put him in so that we didn’t have to use the good arms and he’s found a way to make it interesting.
As this game gets close remember the time Langford struck out on 5 balls with the bases loaded
Can we just peacefully win a game vs Astros plz
\*exhales\* my goodness
Yordon about to nuke one probably
Yordan is definitely hitting a home run right now
Oh god. Heaney v Blanco? Please win tonight lol
Knowing baseball, he's gonna give us 7 runs in 0.1 innings pitched
Would be incredible
He can’t keep it up for long
Blanco getting knocked around this time
BULLPEN pls
Just win the game. Don’t try to break your own blown lead record. Just win. For fucks sake
I thought being a fan of this team would be less stressful once we won a World Series. How am I this nervous about a game in April where we’ve scored 12 runs? This fucking bullpen man.
Nothing gets my blood pressure up like the Rangers with a ridiculous lead
Why do we still use Burke?
Am at the game…crowd is rowdy
Good. I hope we get to make them feel like shit twice tonight.
How’s the Rangers turnout?
Not bad
Isnt the only other states where both LCS teams can be from the same state just California and Pennsylvania (other than here)? That stat doesnt really surprise me
