I respect and admire that.

Hell, even with how this season is going and as well as the Astros are playing right now, going into Arlington this weekend still worries me.

Astros coming to town, time for your Rangers to turn it around!

Dallas vs Darvish on Friday should be a good one.

Houston had a pretty good offensive game today.

And now they get to feast on the Rangers bullpen for a few games.

Happy to say I won't be watching. My Concert Calendar weekend is upon me.

Tonight - 6-1 Jethro Tull
Friday night - 6-2 Sammy Hagar
Saturday night - 6-3 Journey

By the time Sunday rolls around, my only hope is that Sam Dyson is gone.

Yea, I see he came in and gave up 2 HR's last night.

Sorry man.

I hope he sticks around in a Rangers uniform though, no offense.

Didn't seem to be too much of an impediment for your heroes.

Thumbs up to A's fans... with a creative way to troll Jose Bautista.

Pretty certain we can start the "Trade Darvish" thread now.

Trade you Paulino for Darvish, straight up. Do not resist. Make it so.

Throw in a couple of prospects.

Because our farm system sucks, you see.

Go Blue Jays, am I right, Otis?

God I hope we beat them by 20 runs tonight. Almost halfway there!

Love those throwbacks the Rangers wore last night.
