My kid was born and I looked up to see Adolis rounding the bases on the TV in the room.  That's a good night

Haven’t been this excited to pick up the Dallas Morning News in a long time. Add it to the collection. The last titles my teams have won.

Man, how I wish my dad could have been here to see this. Biggest Rangers fan ever. I was on the phone with him in 2011 when we needed one more strike. I’ve never heard such a crushed, disappointed rea

Angels without Ohtani, Trout, and Rendon, played like shit since the trade deadline, roster essentially gutted. Man if there were ever a team primed for a sweep, it’s these chumps.

Sweep this series, have Seattle take 2/3 from Houston, and the last 4 against the Ms don’t mean shit (for us anyway)…

You’re right with our 3 game lead on the Ms. They are 8-2 against Houston this year. Problem is, despite depleted Angels, we fuck around far too much on the road.

if the angels try to move trout in the offseason like the rumors have started, it would be wild to see what he'd fetch.  what do you give up for a god that can never stay on the field signed at $37MM indefinitely?  seems like some GM that is throwing a hail mary to keep his job might be interested, but would anyone reasonable be?

hey!  that's very different because you see if you really think about it is not you know but those two things may look similar but really it's not really you know they're totally different and the one that the team i root for was actually quite smart.

This kind of stuff is when I get really worried.

did juan gone have beef with someone in the front office?

Hicks. (Tom, the owner at the time.) Rangers re-signed Gonzalez in 2002 at 2 years / $24MM. He was injury plagued and played less than 1/2 the games over that period. A few years later Hicks said the team had essentially thrown away that money on Gonzalez and he brought steroids into the discussion. That didn't sit well with Gonzalez, for years.

I don't know who was instrumental in getting Gonzalez back to Arlington. Nadel and Grieve were always big supporters of his. Wouldn't surprise if they were at the center of it.
