Defending World Series Champion Texas Rangers 2024 Season Thread


Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

The RANGERS took 3 out of 4 games to win the series with oakland.  I don't what's in the air at the coliseum but there were 65 total runs scored in those 4 games.  The boys of summer get a day off then head to colorado for a 3 game set. 

As of May 9 the RANGERS hold a 1 game lead over seattle in the standings.

TEXAS 22-17

seattle 20-17

oakland 18-21

los angeles 14-23

houston 12-24

May 20:

The RANGERS have lost 3 series in a row (rockies, cleveland, angels) and are sitting at 24-24.

As of right now they are a team that can't get out of their own way.  Starting pitching is good but the bullpen blows it.  Starting pitching sucks but bullpen is good. Defense is sloppy, especially the outfield play.  Offense has scored 21 runs in the last 9 games.  That's 2.3 runs per game.  Can't buy a hit with runners in scoring position. 

The injured list is long and not sure how soon the help will come.

    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.
