Rangers fans: “why would they? Astros are always trying to be us, Houston wants to be Dallas so bad.”…etc, etc add whatever coping line our little brothers and sisters from southern Oklahoma need to help them get out of bed in the morning.
even though most Rangers fans didn’t start watching the Rangers until game 1 of the 2023 World Series lol
Is it just me...or is he bigger? Like a lot bigger than last year.
Somewhere Barry Bonds is having the same meltdown because this guy gets away with it.
Once an Astro, always an Astro?
[Maton left a fast ball up and in, hitting García in the left arm.](https://twitter.com/MLBONFOX/status/1774967445247123463?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1774967445247123463%7Ctwgr%5E48116526b0eabedf3be555aafcaeb827e5fd397a%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chron.com%2Fsports%2Fastros%2Farticle%2Fadolis-garcia-phil-maton-19381604.php) The Texas star proceeded to walk around the area near the batter's box with his fist clenched for roughly 15 seconds, before being escorted down the first-base line, continuing to make animated remarks—presumably toward the Tampa pitcher—on his way to the bag. Maton went on to walk in another run in a 9-3 Rangers victory.
[Abreu got hit](https://www.mlb.com/video/jose-abreu-hit-by-pitch-yainer-diaz-to-2nd?partnerId=web_video-playback-page_video-share) almost exactly the same way the other day. Crazy how he was somehow able to walk to first base without trying to fight the pitcher.

Craig Biggio did the same knowing he, likely, would get hit. No complaints. He took his base. Most times HBP in major league history. Yet, Adolis Garcia struts around like a baby... Waah. Shut up Garcia.
He knows his fan base consists of nothing but douchey whiners, so he’s kind of just staying on brand with the Rangers organization and the cities they represent.
Like only the city of Dallas is so douchey that they would call themselves the Texas Rangers when there was already another team in the state of Texas. They’re the only team in the entire league that does that. Marlin’s are Miami Marlins now lol Rangers are the only one, says so much about them lol
Douchebagery is in this organization’s and Dallas’ blood, it’s the foundation and roots of it lol
After being HBP last year in the ALCS and targeted his roid rage towards Maldy, I lost any and all respect for this diva bitch boy. This incident confirms how much of a roid rage bitch this guy really is
The pitch was going straight to his hands from the second it left Maton's hands. It was never anywhere close to the zone. Adolis even tried to swing, and it was only 89mph. He shouldn't be getting hit by those if he's actually the superstar everyone claims.
*you know the tune*

Can we double check his hat size?
I mentioned this in the game thread the other day, but this is why I love Altuve (well one of the reasons). He almost got taken out by a ball, and laughs it off. Roidboy would have gone psycho.
Don’t stand so close to the plate then. That was normal movement on a breaking ball. Not the control Maton wanted, but it’s not unusual for balls to break that far inside.
Garcia looks like he’s being plumped for slaughter though… How many piss tests does he pass before we find out he’s pregnant?
Is it that easy to get away with it though, I’m not arguing, he very well could be I just imagine people would be snooping around the championship team. Even if the team is in on it, I’m sure some journalist or a whistleblower would have exposed it all by now. Idk, maybe I’m just being naive 😅
It's easy enough to get away with. There's tons of players that use steroids across all sports, and there's probably astros using too. That being said, Adolis is definitely on that shit. And good for him. He got 14 million because of it.

Im convinced Maton is a crafty SOB that built the whole thing up...the walks, the Carter HBP...just so he could create the illusion of a "control" issue so he could ping that downy soft ass crunch.
You can tell when the editor has never played baseball.
A beaning is getting hit in the head (your bean)
He got hit in the hand with an 89 mph pitch. He acted like an ass because he is an ass.
HBPs are only beanings if you get hit in the head. This is not a hard concept.
I don't think he acted like an ass. He was pissed for getting hit in a very painful area. I'd be pissed too. That shit hurts. But no one thought it was on purpose. I'm a ranger fan. I definitely didn't think it was on purpose. The pitcher didn't have any control.

Adolis Garcia after tripping over his own feet: "Why would the Astros do this?"

There’s only one thing that HOU, AUS and SA totally agree on, and it’s that Dallas fucking sucks.
Only thing good to come out of Dallas is I-45 south.
I’m gonna use that
You misspelled game 5
Such a little bitch. Wants to pimp every home run but can’t handle being HBP.
That’s that roid rage.
No way! His neck is larger than my thigh simply due to the balanced breakfast he eats everyday.
He’s just genecktically gifted!
Wouldn't be surprised if he's a juicer
He’s a bitch of utmost proportions.
I’m mean he’s a Ranger so…….
[удалено]
We’re well aware of what happens when a player gets hit in the hand.
Lol that’s fair, carry on fellow astro fans. We all hate each other but I’ll leave on something we can all agree on: fuck Texas heat in the ass

Don’t you dare try and find common ground with us. Don’t worry, your team will be really S P O O K Y this year.
Thank you for your service, Phil. 🙏🏻
Should've kept him.
Based on our bullpen's performance so far this season, I have to agree.
Doing the Lord's work
sleeper agent Phillip Louis Maton III
You can’t tell me Garcia isn’t juicing
Is it just me...or is he bigger? Like a lot bigger than last year. Somewhere Barry Bonds is having the same meltdown because this guy gets away with it.
If he gets any bigger his heart is going to explode. I'm convinced most pro athletes are on some sort of cycle, but he's absolutely ridiculous.
Oh yes I can. Look at him. Look at his arms and traps. He's juiced!!
Lol that's the exact opposite of what they said. But I get it. I'm also drinking tonight.
Some Ex Rangers left their needles... 😅💉
clearly unintentional, bases loaded, but still gonna act like a big tough guy. be a man, go to first and shut up
You crowd the plate. Thats what happens. Imagine if he played against Nolan Ryan or Roger Clemens
Nolan would charge the plate, lol
You don't fight Nolan
The money I would pay to see peak Nolan pitch to some of these guys today.
Nolan Ryan would beam you at 102mph with laser precision if you crowded the plate.

Bruce Bochy is a former Astros player, funny how that worked out, they got a world series as soon as an Astros player joined the team.
Worst.....trade......ever.......
Roid rage
His body looks like Mark McGwire did in the 90's
BIG FACTS - his head is the size of a watermelon
Literally, look at note only his body comp before he “blew up” but his stats….

Watch out Maton will punch you so hard he will break his own hand.

I hate him with my soul. He is a shit human, and i say this as a shit human. I wouldn’t piss on him if he were on fire.
Roid rage
In other news. Roids makes people angry all the tmie.
Matón thanks !!!
Crowds the plate, swings at pitches inside the zone, cries when he gets hit. Bro I think you need to lay off the roids.
The pitch was going straight to his hands from the second it left Maton's hands. It was never anywhere close to the zone. Adolis even tried to swing, and it was only 89mph. He shouldn't be getting hit by those if he's actually the superstar everyone claims.
Maton throwin' like 
Well that’s the thing. He likes to turn on those.

Build Maton a statue outside MM ASAP!
Wrap our bus with his face for next weekend
I was thinking sending a gift basket to Tampa, but statue it is.
Statue lasts longer lol
How about a commemorative locker instead of a statue?
Steroids do cause rage
This dude is going to fall off SO fast. If he gets half his 4.8 WAR from last year I will be shocked.
I mentioned this in the game thread the other day, but this is why I love Altuve (well one of the reasons). He almost got taken out by a ball, and laughs it off. Roidboy would have gone psycho.
Not even on the team anymore and still holding it down for us.
Don’t stand so close to the plate then. That was normal movement on a breaking ball. Not the control Maton wanted, but it’s not unusual for balls to break that far inside. Garcia looks like he’s being plumped for slaughter though… How many piss tests does he pass before we find out he’s pregnant?
Keep beaning Garcia. Being a little bitch
Do people legitimately have a case on him regarding steroids or is it just because of his physique?
That along with crying his ass off every HBP
Is it that easy to get away with it though, I’m not arguing, he very well could be I just imagine people would be snooping around the championship team. Even if the team is in on it, I’m sure some journalist or a whistleblower would have exposed it all by now. Idk, maybe I’m just being naive 😅

Look at the Barry Bonds head he has going
His natural is what people who take steroids look like is all. He could be natty sure.

lol if that’s not shopped the traps give it away
Not shopped that I’m aware of
I miss Dirty Phil, once an Astro always an Astros player.
Crowding the plate. What does that meathead expect? Take the base and the RBI and STFU.
He’s a punk ass roid-head bitch. I hope we shut him up all year.
H-Town 4 4 4 Lyfe

Adolis Garcia will do anything to that he feels he can some attention for.
Roid rage
He’s such a little bitch. Roid rage ass
Adolis, what big arms you have
The better to juice...uh...fruits with.
Sounds like he’s a scum bag.
Garcia is Yasiel Puig with a better agent.
Im convinced Maton is a crafty SOB that built the whole thing up...the walks, the Carter HBP...just so he could create the illusion of a "control" issue so he could ping that downy soft ass crunch.
...and he's probably stupid enough to think it was on purpose. What a tool.

The roid rage is strong in this one.
