Memorial Day ~ Texas Rangers Keep Winning ~ Old T-Shirts

GO RANGERS !!! 22-23 3rd in American League West I guess the Rangers just needed a little boost... they have won 7 of their last 8 games.  SWEEPING the New York Yankees !! ( sweep, means to win every game in the series, 3 of 3 in this case ).  In the three games vs. the Yankees, the Rangers scored 30 runs!!! 30 runs!!! What?!?! Who are we watching? It's like every guy on the roster has come to life! Even Fielder!  Hitting...  Fielder, Choo, Moreland, Beltre, DeShields... these dudes are on FIRE! Fielder is batting .365, with 9 HR's and 35 RBI's. He hit his 297th Home Run earlier today. I know I've stated before that I'm not a fan of his type of first baseman, but I'll take him as my DH, since we had to get rid of Nelson Cruz. #fieldergoesyard There's one guy I've always stuck by on this team... that JD hasn't gotten rid of...

Adrian Beltre joins 400 club ~ Cowboys Draft Picks ~ Whole 30

GO RANGERS !!! 15-20 ADRIAN (Beltre)... dude just went yard against the Indians... right after Prince Fielder. 5 HR's this year for both of them.

Moreland is trailing him with .304.  The rest of our guys are below .300. This is where Josh Hamilton comes into play. I know it's frustrating to watch him swing so casually and miss... but when he swings and hits it... wow... the best sound you've ever heard! He's in AAA right now in Round Rock... hoping he gets his bat speed up and is ready to go at the end of May!   RBI... Runs Batted In ( points on the board )... Fielder with 20, Choo with 16, Beltre and Chirinos with 12. We definitely don't have clean-up guys like we used to, or as many fast guys who would put themselves in scoring position with sm
