Evan Grant on stuff

Evan Grant also has a lot of bloggy notes up on last night's game, and the general Rangers situation right now...

He has some Jason Botts love and says that Wes Littleton's job in the bullpen is safe, among many other things...

Matt Walbeck

I was rereading the game story from AP, linked on Pinto’s site, and Cat credited Matt Walbeck for his game-winning run:

Catalanotto said third base coach Matt Walbeck warned him to look out for a ball in the dirt.

“Two seconds before it happened he said, ‘Cat, be ready for a wild pitch,’” Catalanotto said. “I got an extra five feet and I was ready for it. Once it got by I knew I had a chance to score.

“[Burnett] throws a pretty nasty curveball so you’ve got to be ready at all times when he’s on the mound,” he added.

Cool.

Whatever gets you through the night, 'salright, 'salright.

Walbeck

Wonder if he was thinking at all about calling a squeeze play just to spite Washington. We saw Toronto try one that almost won them the game and yet it looked to me like the thought never even entered Washingtons head.

The way the Rangers have been botching plays this year

I don’t want to see them doing squeeze’s in the 14th inning of games.

unless it's the beastly Laird

up at the plate. with 0 out. and a fast runner on third.

The three true outcomes - Does it make me money, does it get me fed, or does it get me laid?
