Tampa Bay 5, Texas 4: Tough loss tonight

dallasnews.com

Some thoughts:
• C.J. Wilson's inability to get one out in the 8th was probably the biggest blow in a game that Texas really needed, with Boston and LA both winning. Pat Burrell has hit lefties very well throughout his career, but he's only .205/.365/.253 against them...

Anthony Andro certainly got the conversation going last night with his post about Derek Holland. There are a few things running through my head this morning about Holland:
• It's clear Holland still needs work on his secondary pitches. His fastball is a good one, but he...

Derek Holland's tough outing made no one a winner last night. In fact, the whole game made a mess of things here. Dr_waller had Doug Mathis as the first reliever in the game. And Blaze had Taylor Teagarden as the Ranger with the most hits.
We have two games to pick today. Here...
Rangers Finally Have Pitching

Bleacher Report

Yes, it’s true the Texas Rangers finally have pitching. Although I would stop short of calling it great, it is certainly good.
Look at the Rangers have done since the All Star Break in the pitching department. The Rangers lead the American League in ERA. Hard to believe, I know...

The Rangers once again showed they can bounce back. After a bad 18-10 loss on Monday, Texas swept a doubleheader today. It appears Boston is going to win, so the Rangers will only gain a 1/2 game on them. But the Rangers really needed the two solid games they got from Dustin Nippert...

The Rangers have added right-hander Guillermo Moscoso to the roster and sent reliever Willie Eyre to Oklahoma City. Moscoso is in his third stint with the Rangers. He has a 4.50 ERA in his first two trips to Arlington. Moscoso gives the Rangers a multiple-inning pitcher to use in the...

You know, after the game was over, I tried to think of some cool way to say how great this win was. I thought and thought, and couldn't come up with something good. All I wanted to say was "Man, that game felt great. The Yankees lost." This felt better than most Ranger...

Does anyone remember May 2, 2004? That was the last time the Rangers swept Boston at home (I believe). It's also the date of the famous SWEEP SWEEP SWEEP chant that just dominated the entire stadium - we have Hanks' Homies to thank for that. That was a major highlight, and...

Another non-trade note. Kevin Millwood didn't sound confident he'd be able to make his start Sunday. Manager Ron Washington said the right-hander is still tentatively scheduled to start, while pitching coach Mike Maddux said it's a TBA. If not Millwood, Dustin Nippert would...

It was a lively clubhouse, as you can imagine. The Rangers swept the Red Sox and there's an off day tomorrow, so that had everyone in a good mood.

Vicente Padilla would have been on the mound last night in Cleveland if he still had his spot in the rotation. Instead, that fell to Dustin Nippert, who had one bad inning that hurt his start (of course, his team couldn't get him any runs, either).
