    I have decided as long as Dyson is the closer I can't watch the games. It was too hard last year and now with the announcers it is unbearable to watch him pitch

They also set a major league record for come from behind wins numbering close to 50. The Rangers had a phenomenal offense last year and a desire to never give up. But solid pitching wins championships, not a great offense. John Daniels needs to make some moves I'm afraid.


      Iirc the bullpen was pretty **** salty during the middle of the season thru mid September. Their numbers were bad early
      and late.

      It has the capability to be good. I'd like to see Dyson in the setup roll and let Jeffress or Bush get a shot at closing.

        Looooooong season. They get a pretty long stretch of non-world series teams now.

          True but Dyson was losing it at the end of last season. I'm not jumping off anything.... I'm
          just ready to see somebody else get a chance.

            I didn't watch any of he WBC but they say that Dyson was really good in those games. Maybe he used up all of his good stuff already because he has looked terrible so far.

              I'd like to see Bush get a shot at closing too. I think he would do well. He sure couldn't be any worse than Dyson has been so far.

                yeah, what happened to Buzz and Tom? the one new guy was filling in some for Tom last year, but this new duo is hard to listen to. id rather turn TV down and listen to Nadel call the game on the Fan.

                      Daniels could not handle him telling the truth when the team played bad.

                                .... and then it turns into the equivalent of a chimpanzee throwing $&@* at the glass. I swear you can't even breath with a 8 run lead
