The Rangers have optioned pitcher Kazuo Fukumori to Triple A Oklahoma to make room for Scott Feldman. Fukumori has a 32.40 ERA after three appearances and agreed it was the rigt decision, saying, "I was the worst in the bullpen so I expected it."

A 32.4 ERA and he gets sent down? Come on give him a chance. Hillman is 7-5 with that K C Team. Has Washington ever had a 7-5 record? Daniels should be fired for hiring Washington. If you are too insecure to hire a capable manager then you shouldn't be a general manager. Washington seems to be a good guy, but was anyone really beating down his door to manage their team? It is time for a true leader, the Perryton, Texas manager Mike Hargrove. Grover could talk some sense into Padilla maybe. 12 games in and we are 5-7, we very easily could be at least 7-5 with timely hits. How does Jaramillo keep that reputation he has? No clutch no moving runners over, playing for the big inning counting on the players to do something, when the history shows that they won't do it. Hit and run, bunt, sacrifice, squeeze, be freaking aggressive. Stop being that utilitiy player that was just hoping to make a 25 man roster, keep a job, tear some booty, get emotional. Today was a prime example. The home plate umpire was missing balls and strikes all day long, was inconsistent with his calls. Billy freaking Martin would have been ejected but the umpire would have heard about it. Hey Washington your career and job are on the line, do you think maybe you could eat some umpire butt for once? How many times has the guy been ejected? Earl Weaver, Chuck Tanner, Lou Pinella all great managers stick up for their players. Meek and mild just sits on his tooter, says and does nothing. Nero is fiddling while Rome burns. Interesting how all we heard was the record of the RAngers was after the all-star break. Well when the chips are down, we become Buffalo Chips. Seems to have been pretty sparse crowds out there so far and it is going to get worse if we don't get some clutch hitting. Just one mans thoughts and opinions, bought and paid for by the Marine Corp. Semper Fei, hoorah.

The Marine Corps will not appreciate "fei".
Ranger fans for a change complain about the hitting letting the pitchers down. In truth the biggest problems so far are the terrible fielding and mental lapses.

Dwid... r-wolff already corrected you on "Semper Fi", and I don't want to beat a dead horse here, but as a the son of a Marine, I feel obligated to tell you the Marines say "Oooh-rah" not "hoorah". I beleive "hoorah" is the Navy Seals, or something.
Just FYI.
