We're gunna need a new batch of players to hate on this year.

I've got a bad feeling that some of the new additions to the bullpen are gonna get torched. Both on the field and here. I'd rather see them succeed of course, but if anyone is going to be the whipping boy, it's going to be one of them.

I think the Kendall and Turnbow hate will more than make up for it. I'm sure there will be others, like if Gagne blows a save on Opening Day or something, or if Cameron never puts it together after the suspension.

 

I don't see Mench staying on the Rangers' roster all year, but it looks like he valued returning to the D/FW area more than playing time. Who knows...maybe a return to Arlington will boost his numbers back up again and he'll be able to cash in next offseason or something.

Mench doesn't have to much value because his numbers are nothing short of horrible when facing RHP. It's simple... Mench coming up to bat in late inning.. sub the pitcher. Bam.. burned a spot. Next turn, when your RHP batter is up, call to the pen again and bring in a LOOGY, you either bat vs. the horrible # or burn another spot. That's why platoons suck soooo bad. Yes you get good numbers when batting against their handed pitcher, but you have to burn through a ton of your bench protecting the platoon advantage.

 

Ohh and he always super tired after running out a double, like he smokes 15 packs a day. And Kendalls my already designated stooge for next year, after all he made my Game Worn #18 Gross jersey worth crap! And my #18 Gross jersey T worth crap! He may burn from the fire of 1000 suns for that!
