Announcements, Proclamations, Promotions And FREE STUFF!

Bumping this back to the top in case it got lost in the morning shuffle. But I can’t believe nobody wants free stuff.

Thanks to our fine friends at Dr Pepper, we’ve got even more free stuff to hand out. And, if you get a chance, drop by the Dr Pepper Facebook Page and make new friends. To win a hat/t-shirt combo and a coupon for some free Dr Pepper product, here’s all you have to do.

• Pick the club’s record for the final week of the first half of the season.
• 1st tie-breaker: The Rangers total runs scored for the week.
• 2ne tie-breaker: Total runs allowed by the Rangers for the week.

Now on to some other equally important announcements, repeating from late last week when many of you may have already checked out for July 4 weekend:

Sitos Legend 4C with taglineFirst, for our next get together, we’re putting together a little party, er, fiesta we are calling a “Pennant Race Pep Rally” at Pappasito’s in Arlington in advance of the second half of the season. All plans are still being finalized, but the current plan is for a get together on Thursday, July 16 at Pappasito’s Cantina in Arlington. We’ll be there from 5 p.m. until who knows when. GM Jon Daniels and Ron Washington are tentatively planning to join the crowd and address what’s ahead for the Rangers. We will have a whiffle ball home run derby for the kids – emceed by none other than the great Chuck Morgan – early in the festivities. The lineup of players who will share some fajitas with us is still being ironed out. But make plans to join us. We hope to bring together the spirit of Cinco de Mayo and Pennant Race Fever.

Second, and we’re sooper-dooper excited about this: You asked for the opportuntiy to get together at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. Well, we’re making it happen. And for a premium game, no less. Join us on Tuesday July 21 when the Rangers face the Boston Red Sox. As expected, I’ve requested the All You Can Eat Seats in the Home Run Porch. The Rangers have made tickets prices extremely affordable: $25 apiece and the food will be abundant. The Rangers have even put together a link for you to buy tickets directly. Password: inside. We’ll have more festivities, including possible Q&A sessions, available for you at the game, but those are all still being put together. Join me as I try to do my best Joey Chestnutt impersonation.  Even if you want nothing to do with me, the tickets are a good price and it should be a great matchup

    I WON! Due to my pessimism, I won.

    According to my calculations:
    Road trip was 3-4
    Runs for Rangers: 4, 8, 8, 1, 6, 1, 3 = 31
    Runs against Rangers: 9, 5, 1, 3, 4, 4, 5 = 31

    My call was 32 and 31.

    Blind luck.
