WHO is above the Dodgers???

[Just Baseball @JustBB_Media]

The Dodgers have one of the best run differentials through May EVER 😳

[Rangers Nation ⚾️ @Rangers__Nation]

Forever immortalized.

Thank you, Josh ❤️

Bump

[Grant Paulsen @GrantPaulsen]

Abi Ortiz is on a world-class heater at Triple-A. Acquired in the Gore deal. Should be in MLB helping at 1B very soon.

⚾️ 2 HR today
⚾️ 6 HR in last 4 games
⚾️ 9 HR in 14 games in May

He's got huge power. Has 25 and 33 HR seasons under his belt in minors.

EIGHT. RUN. INNING. #AllForTX

@JaredSandler Hit pick: Jung

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

We do not have time to wait on two guys to get back who both have a sub .640 OPS.

Also no sense in building around them in ‘27 when they’re always hurt to begin with.

Doesn’t matter how good the staff is when we can’t score to begin with.

Texas Rangers update

The offense is currently….horrible

Yet @fangraphs has them at 36% chance to make the playoffs

deGrom Eovaldi Gore Leiter Rocker are the staff
That’s pretty freaking good!

Rangers Twitter is screaming for firings and fire sales
Go take your medication

Seager is hurt
Langford is hurt

deGrom Eovaldi Pederson Nimmo all have no-trade clauses of some kind-not to say they can’t be dealt, but it’s unlikely

Players currently in the bigs they could move if they sell seem to me to be
Burger
Smith
Duran
Jung
Carter
Higashioka

No one is breaking down any doors to add these guys.

No top 100 prospects coming back for anyone on that list

Mavs fans Cowboys fans Sports Talk radio parrots and most of Rangers Twitter are having emotional breakdowns like the ladies of the view after another orange haired guy won an election

My take….
Wait on Seager and Langford and see what they have this summer

The 2026 Rangers….
And for that matter the 2027 Rangers will be built around Seager & Langford & DeGrom & Eovaldi

In baseball we play 162 games…
Not 17

It’s Memorial Day
Relax

The Houston Astros have a 5.08 Team ERA (30/30 in MLB)

Skip Schumaker talks about #Rangers getting no-hit.

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

Great waiting until practically June 2026 to address an issue we ALL KNOW has been an issue since 2024.

YOU WERE IN THE ORG LAST YEAR.

[Victory+ @victoryplustv]

"The first person you've got to look at is me. I've got to figure out a different way to message on the offensive side. That's how you move on — to look at yourself in the mirror first."

[Evan Grant @Evan_P_Grant]

3 outs away from one of the most embarrassing no-hitters of all time.

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

@Rangers See you in Surprise 2027.

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

Sell at the deadline. I don’t care how close the division is and it’s taken a lot for me to get to this point but there is no October in this lineup.

Rebuild the farm.

@Rangers Nice

If we end up doing the tarps off thing it has to be in one of these sections.

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

@JeffWilsonTXR Good catch at the end. Based on what we’ve all see I don’t think this team will be playing for anything mid to late Sep.

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

Yep, 5

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

FIVE?

[Writing For the Rangers @WritingRangers]

The OPS of Rangers qualified hitters

Josh Jung .822
Brandon Nimmo .752
Jake Burger .685
Corey Seager .639
Evan Carter .605

If the MLB Average is usually around .725 mark, we have two above average hitters, and seven others below average. Duran is unqualified but above .725.
