This is how my luck goes

Yesterday, I didn’t want to watch because Jennings was pitching, but the game was at a time I could watch. Today, I’d like to watch because someone besides Jennings is pitching, and the game comes on at 11 a.m. my time, when I’m at work.

He can hit

4th, because he is a power hitter, he can drive in runs. Or 1st, because he is a natural lead off hitter. He has lots of versatility to the team because he can hit anywhere in the lineup.

He was Victor’s guest on the pregame.

Obviously Wash doesn't want him on the team....

Time for JD to give Wash some orders or let Jason get a shot in another system. Who cares if it turns into a Hafner gaff, having the guy on the team for only keeping the bench warm is ludicrous.

its kind of interesting

2 on, no outs and you’re playing a style that minimizes the number of runs. the way this team is playing, you’re lucky to get 1 run. not sure if cat not bunting would have changed the outcome any but it does drop the chances of a big inning.

i’m still happy wtih a bunt – seems hard enough to get a run, i’ll take them in one run spurts.

back to reality though . . .

the Rangers were up 3 and facing a mediocre pitcher – they should be playing for a big inning, not playing for one run.
