06.14.2021
Episode 116: We Heart Izzy
Isiah Kiner-Falefa is not only good at baseball, he's probably better than you think? Unless you think he's really good, in which case you win this week's episode! Follow us on twitter: @RangersRundown, @SvelteMarvin, @cmichaelkinser Email us at: [email protected] We’re on facebook...
06.09.2021
Episode 115: Sadball
Things have gone very poorly for the Rangers lately, and so Hayden makes everything worse by wondering if Joey Gallo will be part of the next good Rangers team. And if so, what his role might even be. AA Frisco...

05.23.2021
Episode 113: More Adolis
We mostly talk about Adolis Garcia again, and how the Statcast numbers agree that this isn’t a fluke. Stick around for banter and the reveal as to who our special guest will be this Tuesday! Follow us on twitter: @RangersRundown,...
05.17.2021
Episode 112: Road Woes
So yeah, the Houston series went very poorly, so we talked a lot about the MiLB box scores. Adolis Garcia is actually kinda elite when it comes to hitting the ball hard, which usually means you’re actually good at baseball....
05.12.2021
Episode 111: Actually Fun
The Texas Rangers might be Actually Good. While there’s still a lot of ball left to play, it seems like this lineup is the real deal. Starting pitching has shown flashes of greatness. Regardless of if you think this is...

Episode 110: Fenway South?
Max learns the horrifying truth of the new corporate Minors hellscape, Mike explains why Charlie Culberson should be an every-day starter, Hayden takes a nap, and IKF just absolutely will not stop hitting bombs. Follow us on twitter: @RangersRundown, @SvelteMarvin,...

04.23.2021
Episode 108: Adolis is More
It's Adolis' world, we're just living in it. The big man has a plan, and that plan is "trying to win baseball games." Join Max and Mike for a spicy dive into the newest Ranger sensation's scorching hot start, an...
04.18.2021
Episode 107: Not Talking About The Orioles
After this painfully boring losing series against Baltimore, we definitely didn’t want to talk about that. We did notice that Dillon Tate has fulfilled his destiny of being an Oriole, and that brings about feelings. The Independent Atlantic League is...
04.16.2021
Episode 106: Well Well Well
Episode 106: Well Well Well We talk Rangers team stats contra the league, Adolis Garcia getting a shot, Kohei's promising start, and pre-ordered our ALCS tickets. Go Rangers! Follow us on twitter: @RangersRundown, @SvelteMarvin, @cmichaelkinser Email us at: [email protected]

04.07.2021
Episode 104: The Lowe Show

04.04.2021
Episode 103: They Are Who We Thought They Were

Episode 100: Give Me a Reason to Live

Episode 97: Ian Gibaut

06.01.2020
Episode 96: Back To Earth?
The 2010 Texas Rangers seem to be falling back to earth after a 1-6 stretch that saw ineffective pitchers keep course and others trip up. How will this team figure out how to win without the home run? Stolen bases...

04.26.2020
Episode 91: *Sigh*

Okay so the east coast is finally in the rearview mirror, and we’re clawing back to .500 after discovering new ways to lose six in a row. Nelson Cruz is eying a plot of land west of The Ballpark to...
04.20.2020
Episode 89: No More New York
Look, we hate New York. We’re just glad we don’t have to go back this year. Borbon has lost his leadoff spot. The bullpen is gassed. Nelly is on pace for less than 100 homeruns. And we’re only two games...

04.14.2020
Episode 87: Nelson Cruz is #OnPace
The 2010 Rangers are off to a 4-3 start to the season, but could easily be 6-1 if not for two uncharacteristic blown saves by Frank Francisco. Is Neftali Feliz in line to take his job? Is Josh Hamilton the...
04.10.2020
Episode 86: Highs and Lows

Episode 74- All About That Solak-tion
