The Texas Rangers are in a major offensive slump, following another abysmal game for their bats. Jake Burger has been sent down to the Minor League, while Blaine Crim is getting his MLB shot after being called up from Triple-A.

00:00you would hope that a dolly is going to come around but i mean one of the guys who's been
00:19mashing the ball for you pretty hard higashioka he goes on the aisle yesterday uh haim has been
00:25hitting the ball pretty well but i mean it's just you're you're very limited in your options it
00:28seems like all right josh young's back all right well now white langford's on white langford's back
00:31now cory seager's on cory seager's back now higashioka's right and it because so they only
00:36have three guys so in order to qualify for a batting title you've got to have 3.1 plate appearances per
00:41team game played so you're 30 games in you've got to have about 90 plate appearances right around
00:47there they only have three guys to qualify that's ridiculous we're a month into the season they only

01:28to continue to you he has to hit he has to hit more yeah part of this will balance out a little
01:34bit um it just it hasn't yet i mean what is uh what's a dully said now batting average choice he's
01:39at 218 so his expected batting average is 258 that's got to even out he should be he should be higher up
01:47uh his expected slugging is 504 so that's 110 points low yeah i mean i mean we're talking about
01:55a guy who should be in the 800s on his ops he should he should
