What the fuck? Greatest pitching season in Rangers history and you don't bring back Maddux?

Among MLB SPs from 2008-2015 who threw 2 mph or more harder than league average when they debuted, 50% have thrown 1,000 or more MLB career innings.

Among those who who threw 1 mph or more softer than league average, that number was 15%.

The more I think about the Rangers the more in on them I am

I like them more than the Rays rest of season, I think. They're only 1 loss behind Boston and 3 behind Seattle. In.

Jack Leiter (5.1IP 5H 3ER 4BB 6K) picked up the win in the Rangers victory over the Astros. His 90 MPH changeup was our SP Pitch of the Day

@lonestarball.bsky.social I got 199/230, thought this was pretty good. I missed a few big names to spelling errors and a few more I definitely should have remembered.

Nice curse job by the Rangers broadcast talking about how Rocker needs to go deep in this game and immediately has an issue.

80% accurate on strike calls... with an 88% average. That's not great.

I need @lonestarball.bsky.social 's feedback on the Rangers broadcast making a roundabout case that Marcus Semien is perhaps more valuable than Shohei Ohtani because Marcus plays the field.

xBA on the three outs

Langford: .670 (106.2 mph)
Jung: .540 (104.6 mph)
Heim: .780 (103.9 mph)

Really good contact. Two nice plays by Meyers and one by McCormick. Astros with one of the better defensive outfields in the league when those two are in there.
