The Texas Rangers' Ballpark Scam Is Even Worse Than We Thought
Back in June, WFAA-TV took a close look at the Texas Rangers’ proposal to build a new stadium in Arlington, which the city and team insist would be built with a 50-50 split of private and public money.

Baseball Players Get Really Deep When Their Teams Are Down 0-2<em></em>
Three of the four MLB division series have one team in an 0-2 hole.

Root For The Rangers In The Playoffs
The Texas Rangers finished with a 95-67 record, winning the AL West while nine games clear of the second-place Seattle Mariners.

Carlos Beltran Put Eye Black On His Head To Make Fun Of Rougned Odor
Texas Rangers designated hitter Carlos Beltran showed up to the team’s Aug. 28 game with a new look, reminiscent of a different Carlos. As it turns out, Beltran didn’t grow some “hair” to fool anyone. He wanted to make a joke at the expense of teammate Rougned Odor....
Adrian Beltre Is Still Slapping Dingers From One Knee
Adrian Beltre is one of the most entertaining baseball players any of us will ever have the pleasure of watching.

Rougned Odor Slaps Walk-Off Dinger, Stares Down Edwin Diaz
Rougned Odor spent the Rangers’ game against the Mariners tonight messing with Dae-ho Lee, hitting the ball over the field, and futzing around on the basepath. He capped it off with a walk-off home run, and because he’s Rougned Odor, he capped that off with a stare down and a little tiny baby bat fl...
Adrian Beltre Lovingly Messes With Switch Pitcher Pat Venditte
Ambidextrous relief pitcher Pat Venditte has been in Major League Baseball for about a year. He’s bounced back and forth between the show and the minors, and Venditte made his Mariners debut this evening.

Jason Kipnis Messes With Rougned Odor, Delighting The Rangers Bench

Yu Darvish Dinged A Big Ole Donger
Yu Darvish hit his first career dinger tonight, sending a Tim Adelman pitch over the center field wall in the fifth inning. At the time of the homer, he had more stroked dongs than hits allowed, although the Reds put one on him shortly after....
Rangers Waive Josh Hamilton In Order To Try Again Next Spring
Josh Hamilton, with all of one minor-league at-bat in 2016, has been placed on unconditional release waivers by the Texas Rangers. No one is going to claim him; he hasn’t hit well or been healthy in a couple of years, and he’s still owed about $28 million this season and next. But this may not be th...
Don't Try To Surprise Adrian Beltre With A Beverage Shower Or He'll Fight You With A Broom
