Went to the Game Last Night, Rangers Got Beat Like a Drum
Glass Half Empty / Afternoon Cloud: Two errors hurt, especially the one committed by the usually reliable Beltre which cost the Rangers a 3rd out that would have gotten Scooter Feldman out of a bases loaded jam. Rangers gave up 6 earned runs in the game, 10 total runs, compared to getting only 3 of their own runs across. Ogando looked shaky at best in relief. The Rangers are getting into the habit of making the Seamen look a lot better than their W/L record would indicate.
Glass Half Full / Silver Lining: Josh went yard. Scooter Feldman will get a lot of criticism for the loss but, look at his line, 4.1 IP, 2 ER, 3 K's, 3 BB's. Not a great K/BB ratio but, not as bad the score would indicate. Just saying, it wasn't all Scooter's fault.
Thoughts / Observations / Sidenotes: Halos are only 5.5 games behind your defending AL champion Texas Rangers.
Rangers sign Oswalt. This causes multiple questions to pop up:
When will Oz be ready to start?
What happens to Feliz when he's healthy?
Feliz back to the bullpen?
Is Feliz more seriously injured than the Rangers are letting on?
Tommy John surgery for Feliz?
Will Robbie Ross have to wear the pink backpack again?
