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.

    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
    • @CIS_org National Security Senior Fellow @BensmanTodd tells Steve Bannon how the U.S. State Department and USAID have been sending American taxpayer funds to religious nonprofits to facilitate mass immigration to our southern border. Bensman says 248 nonprofits are participating in the United Nations’ 2024 agenda to distribute $1.6 billion in cash, transportation, food, and shelter to U.S.-bound immigrants across Mexico and Latin America.
