Rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. THIS is the kind of offense we’ve been missing I don’t need 10 every game just competent ABs and timely hitting. Good win boys keep it going
Who is Evan Carter? 🤔 For the blind, 🦇 he is the light. 💡 For the hungry 😣 , he is bread. 🍞 For the sick, 💉 he is the cure. ⚕️ For the sad 😢 , he is the joy. 😂 For the poor 🚫💰 , he is the treasure; 💰 ⛏️ for the debtor ➖ 💰 , he is the forgiveness. We love ❤️ Evan Carter.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how amazing Jonah Heim is? I mean, not only is he a phenomenal athlete, but have you seen his body? It’s like if Zeus and Hercules had a son, only with better arms. I can’t help but daydream about being Jonah Heim’s kid. I know it’s unlikely, since I’m a grown adult and all, but imagine getting to inherit those genetics. He was more of a man at 16 then I will ever be. If anyone needs me, I’ll be at the gym trying to get a fraction of his physique.

The almighty peagle seems to be rousing from it’s slumber. It did not grace use during the month of August.
Forgive us, peagle. We know not how we sinned. Please let your grace fall on us again.
98-64 it is.
Day 40 of posting this meme every time the Rangers win until Jacob deGrom returns from Tommy John Surgery
(40-44 since the announcement)

WWW Jonah Heim Dane Dunning beers are in the cooler let’s go Evan Boom Boom Carter you too
A split here wouldn’t be the worst but 3-1 or a sweep would put us firmly back in the driver’s seat for a wild card

THANKS FOR THE GRAND SLAM, UMP. 2 MORE WINS IN THIS SERIES & WE’RE BACK IN THIS THING!
https://preview.redd.it/jqx994cgiqnb1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12b8f707873e7d31ad3ac7421212b800dfc44539
We’re back
Nice to see the offense back these past couple of games. Still tapering my expectations though. 🥲
We are winning the World Series
3-0 since i stopped watching, yw
TEXAS IS BACK!
Hopefully more successfully than ut has been every year their fans say that.
Thank you A’s! Suddenly our 2 of 3 is looking respectable.
Oakland just shut out Houston lamo
Despite our horrid stretch the past month+ we are just 2 games back of the division and (as of now) tied for the last wildcard spot. If this team can get hot we still have a lot to play for!

Realizing now that I was being really over dramatic last week lol bc we are still only 2 games back in the division and tied for WC 3 even after everything. Let’s make our last 19 fun boys
Asterisks blanked by the A’s. Love to see it.
My sacrifice shall continue.
