Intruder, you're the official word on this, so I have to pose the question:

Have we broken the Rangers curse for good?

Good morning!
Cano just hit what looked like a double

Except that it ricocheted off the first baseman's leg and straight into the first base umpire. Ball stopped, Cano out, inning over. Might have scored a run otherwise.

That's BABIP!

Also why am I the official word on this? I'm perhaps the most overreactionary poster here

I dont remember Peacock being such a strikeout guy. One more inning from him will be nice.

This time, Mike Zunino is fixed. For sure!

Nah, he's done. He's still not stretched to pitch true starter innings, Hinch said they'll let him stretch as he goes along

He's been a pretty consistent 8 K/9 guy but this is something else

He will do just well enough to get our hopes up.

Valencia, on the other hand, will assemble a 50 batting attempt hitting streak.

e. and there goes Danny's streak. So maybe Zunino is fixed?

Makes more sense than Schwarber, at least. But, yeah, I'd think Zobrist would be ideal.

Kris Bryant has 12 homers this year and 11 of them are solo shots, mostly due to the fact that our leadoff hitters can't ever get on base.

They cleared a lot of the ivy for renovations (like having actual bullpens now).
