A team can't replace its entire pitching staff. No one is that deep.

San Diego is on their 25th or 26th pitcher this year. What we are going through isn't that bad. The more Feldman throws the better he gets and I like Perez or Grimm in the LR role for now. Holland is starting his rehab assignment shortly and as long as we get him back we will be fine. If we lose Darvish or Harrison we can start to worry.

It's crazy to think that M. Perez just turned 21. It seems like he's been in the minors forever.

No kidding. They signed him at 17 I believe. You could tell he was nervous. I still hope he gets the start against Oakland

Darvish,Harrison,Oswalt,Feldman, and either Perez or Grimm. I like either one as the LR, but I think Grimm should get another start before he moves out of the rotation. I just hope Holland is ready this week.

Unless, the Rangers have to panic and rush him back, Holland won't be back with the big team until after the all-star break. Same with Lewis. We simply have to pray that Harrison's back holds up until they and Ogando make it back.

I feel like these injuries are gonna be a blessing. These guys should be fresh down the stretch and can pay huge dividends.

Harrison needs to go deep tonight. The bull-pen is worn out.

Harrison has done his part. Unforunately, we can't hit the junk ball pitchers that Oakland keeps throwing at us.

Did Harrison ever earn his 11th win of the season. Maybe its time Daniels started thinking about extending his contract. Huge hit by Gentry pinch hitting to give us the lead. Scheppers managed to get his first save.

My biggest concern with the Rangers has been situational hitting.It's like some of these guys go up to the plate with the same mentality for every AB without adjusting to what the situation calls for. The Cruz AB surprised me tonight. He normally swings at anything that doesn't bounce in front of the plate in those situations. I would love to see us start taking more walks instead of guys feeling like they have to get a hit in every AB. When was the last time you saw three walks in an inning for the Rangers instead of against them?

Interesting note. The Angels have played out of their minds and have had a great June. They are 18-9.
Now, think of what Texas has and is going through with injuries and a slumping offense. As of today, the Rangers are 18-9. The difference between them and the Angels is 5 1/2 games. Same as June 1st.
It's going to be a fun 2nd half of the season.
Go Rangers!

Nice night for Martin Perez. Also good sign when Josh hits a left center HR and then gets an RBI with a pitch away and he takes it to LF. Maybe this gets him going.

Very excited to see Martin. You can see what they like about him. This team will look drastically different in 2years. Mike Olt got his first time in RF tonight. Per twitter tonight theRangers are in on both Hamels and Greinke
