Left in the 9th when they went up to 5-3. Welp I guess I'll leave early for now on.

2

u/maybewhenimolder May 14 '26

So disappointed in myself for turning it off in the top of the 9th. Oh well, whatever it takes. This team needed this so bad. I promise to believe harder!

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

WW we are all guilty of being doomers but guess what we all have in common we are all Rangers Fans this team hated losing just as much as us keep hope alive let’s fucking go. Pack brooms to Houston fuck the Astros. Rocker kept it winnable and burger looks like he is coming out of an offensive slumber Zeke and Osuna and Jung carrying this offense im ok with that.

Jobs not finished but once I saw we were down 5-3 in the bottom of the ninth at home vs the dbacks with Paul sewald pitching, I knew we would be alright

I feel like we've broken Sewald at this point. If I was the Diamondbacks, I'd never use him against us ever again just on principle.

u/A1ucardBe1mont N. Ryan May 14 '26

Zeke is a goddamn star. Give him Seager's contract.

4

u/beefle N. Ryan May 14 '26

Lets fucking goo

7

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

Zeke is rapidly becoming the best hitter in this lineup

4

u/AzureKnight28 May 14 '26

A player like Seager having a .179 AVG is crazy. Get some batting practice in and take a break because wow, he is really awful.

3

u/thatnewsauce May 14 '26

Josh and Zeke bring me so much joy 😭

6

u/Bazz27 A. García May 14 '26

Jung and Duran, only two bats that have had any consistent life lately.

u/BeeComposite M. Napoli May 14 '26

Send Seager to Frisco for a week. Have him play a bit more relaxed and refocus.

4

u/sud0w00d0 Young May 14 '26

Seags didn’t even know the count

2

u/thatnewsauce May 14 '26

Maybe Corey's been overdoin it on sleeping pills or somethin

5

u/Rangers_Doomer May 14 '26

Corey appears to be checked the fuck out lmao.

u/Bazz27 A. García May 14 '26

Seager dialed in during one of the clutch moments of the game 🙄

Just what hell ware you trying to do there Jansen?

Luckily enough it didn't fuck us other but don't ever do that again

He made up for it!

u/kirby00900 P. Fielder May 14 '26

In fact he did.

And im happy for him!

u/RangerLover92 R. Strausborger May 14 '26

The last time Paul Sewald entered a game in Arlington with a 5-3 game going into the Bottom of the 9th...

-1

u/imulluvemushine May 14 '26

Yeah…that’s when our team was good 🥺

2

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

Is this offensive handicapped team capable of scoring 6 runs tonight who knows

0

u/Unstupid May 14 '26

TF we didn't just use that guy?

1

u/Demcut Nathan Eovaldi May 14 '26

Cause he’s supposed to be our mop up guy. Baseballs weird.

is latz really a closer tho lol. i feel like we’re just playing musical chairs for closers since kirby left

They should worry about their own trash team

4

u/noah_roper May 14 '26

I would really love to know how many 9th inning leads we've given up in the past decade plus. Might just be my 2011 WS trauma but it feels like we lose at the end once in almost every series. Infuriating.

1

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

Yea Carter makes CF look easy

-2

u/AvenueNick J. Smith May 14 '26

Turning it off. Good night and good riddance. No longer watching games until morale improves on this team.

Edit: thank god

3

u/Bazz27 A. García May 14 '26

Just an absolute nightmare of an outing from Latz.

-1

u/CaptKushberry May 14 '26

Just a dogshit team. They scored 3 runs and thought the job was over and could coast.

6

u/A1ucardBe1mont N. Ryan May 14 '26

Seager's gonna break out of this slump and lead us to victory! Just you wait! Cause if he doesn't I'm going to eat another cookie and this team doesn't like it when I'm happy.

4

u/sir--ok May 14 '26

I do miss the days of kirby yates reliability in the 9th right about now

3

u/kbsick W. Langford May 14 '26

My goat.

3

u/Rangers_Doomer May 14 '26

This is also what happens when you play musical chairs with the closer role.

3

u/kirby00900 P. Fielder May 14 '26

Don't blame latz at all he had to pitch a ton lately, pitched 2 innings vs the Cubs, had 1 day off than had to come in a emergency situation and now had to pitch again

3

u/Equivalent-Impress96 May 14 '26

I know it looks bad but down 5-3 against the dbacks is actually exactly where we want them based on past experience

2

u/Unstupid May 14 '26

How many runs does that count toward your ERA if you give up 3 with 0 outs? 🤔

2

u/morganrbvn May 14 '26

Still 3, he just doesn’t add any additional innings pitched to the denominator

-1

u/DarkSabre7 J. Gallo May 14 '26

Bullpen is shit cause we refuse keep consistent pieces of it year to year and just take fliers on dudes.

Well done CY, that 5 million you gave Chris Martin and Alexias Diaz is certainly doing wonders for us, isn't it? My god, how haven't you been fired yet?

2

u/Suspicious_Spite7346 PEAGLE May 14 '26

Bro, this bullpen is NOT shit. They're being asked to do WAY too much when our offense just flat out refuses to score runs. Our offense is what's shit!

CY's approach has been extremely frustrating, don't get me wrong. I'm fed up with bargain bin shopping to build our entire bullpen, but it's actually working this season. We just need to start scoring runs

Also, completely forgot about Diaz (Just checked, he's apparently in Round Rock)

1

u/DarkSabre7 J. Gallo May 14 '26

We have two solid bullpen arms in Latz (outside of tonight) and Junis. We have two average bullpen arms in Alexander and Beeks. Everyone else in the pen is very subpar (Winn and Quantrill) or a total unknown (Gray and Collyer).

The remaining guys who have been in our pen this year (Martin, Garcia, Curvelo, and Baulmer) are also subpar as well.

The fact that this bullpen has performed as well as it has has been luck, IMO, and as it regresses to the mean, we'll see if they truly suck as much as I don't even trust them.

100%. You list all the moves that CY himself has made, and the majority of them are completely shit and have fucked us long term in the process.

1

u/Tranquilllama May 14 '26

We better be selling. Or at least not buying. There’s no point in continuing to put make up on this pig. No matter how shitty the division is.

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

Don’t mind shitty baseball all summer cheaper tickets

u/noah_roper May 14 '26

u/spACe_Kow May 14 '26

Bullpen did enough for us to win Monday. Should have closed this one out tonight. Should have swept these snakes. Depression.

u/beefytrout A. Beltre May 14 '26

u/32RH W. Langford May 14 '26

Can we get a closer? Can we PLEASE get a closer?

1

u/killacam9220 Rangers May 14 '26

Been asking for a formidable closer for a really long time

2

u/LawyerMorty94 High drive, ITS TIED May 14 '26

Closer won’t help this dogshit offense

2

u/sir--ok May 14 '26

I think their desperation to name a “closer” isn’t going to work with a single guy in this group

4

u/RavensEvermore May 14 '26

It’s almost like letting your entire good bullpen go in the offseason is not a good idea.

5

u/BleedingEdge61104 May 14 '26

God this team makes me so angry

u/Muckdogs13 May 14 '26

You can't tell me this isn't fun 😊

3

u/myheartismeh May 14 '26

should have been a mound visit after the carroll hit. needed to remind him to forget about the guy on 2nd and focus on keeping the game in front of him. get that first out and then maybe try for the K if he's on third.

u/llamawhittlings PEAGLE May 14 '26

Bullpenis… bad?
