Minnesota 8, Rangers 6 (F)

Rangers_vs_tigers_9a16
That loss hurt. It wasn't the dramatics of last Friday against Boston, but it's never good to blow a 5-run lead. That's especially true when the Angels, Red Sox and Rays all win. Rangers now fall into a tie with Boston for the AL wild card lead. The Twins scored 7 runs...

Cowlishaw game: Patriotic edition

Congrats to Travis in Waco. This is his first Cowlishaw game win and he's a faithful player, so good for him. He was joined by Bobby and RB, who both had Tommy Hunter going 5.1 innings. And this was a tight competition as RB was pretty close to Travis' line. But Travis earned...

Who Will Be the Houston Astros' Next Manager?

Mlb_may_13_e40d
It's officially over, the Cecil Cooper Project in Houston. Cooper, who had a decent Major League Baseball career, never could get things going as the Houston Astros manager. Coop took over late last season to replace the fired Phil Garner and made a well-publicized and ill-advised...

Rejuvenated Rangers Ready for Playoff Push

Picimg_royalsrangers_1db7
The Texas Rangers entered the break with a road trip of mixed results. Taking two of three in Los Angeles and then losing three of four in Seattle. Nothing against the Mariners, who I fully expect to be in the race through September, but the Rangers were a tired team going into that...
