yay new thread
game day threads get so slow after 350 posts or so…
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
he held onto the ball
and started jogging off the field as if there were 3 outs already. If he throws it in after catching it, no way Cairo can tag and make it to home plate. At the very least, its a play at the plate
No way he gets him
Ball was deep enough and he was moving backwards when he caught the ball because it was hit on a line. Not a chance that he throws him out at the plate.

Did he forget...
there was just one out?

But still, that was a lousy play.

Great move by Washington
Take Gabbard out of the game so Rupe can let the runs score and tie the game up
i would have much preferred to let him lose it himself
unless they had predetermined the low pitch count for health, in which case i guess theres just not much you can do.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
another well pitched game from Gabbard
And he ends up getting screwed. Its like when Millwood starting pitching poorly, the baseball gods had to find a new sucker in the Rangers rotation.
murphy
I been thinking about this for a day or so. What would happen if the Rangers made Murphy a first baseman? could he do it? seems like it would serve several purposes. It would get some hitting there where we really haven’t had any since Tex was traded and he is left handed. It was also free up a spot in the out field. So, flame me if you want, I am just thinking out loud.
¡yo soy Horsedooty!
I soloed in the mile high club.
One of the biggest reasons
Murphy has value is his OF defense. By putting him at first, you make him a WAY below average first basemen when he could be an average OF.
Offensively...
...I don’t think he’s really an upgrade over Cat, as a 1B against RHP.

just asking I got no problem with him in the OF just trying out different scenarios.

We need another pen arm
if we’re not going to use Metcalf, might as well use someone like Littleton up so he can eat some innings

This needs to be Rupe's last batter
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
and German is up
so three runs will score now

THat's the worst choice we could have made
But then again, who else do they have out there?

Dodged a bullet there
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
Finally...
I’d hate to put this on Wash, but I just can’t think of many times where I’ve seen him make the right call out of the bullpen. It might be bad luck, but after a while, you either have to replace every arm you have or put the blame on the manager.
aside from the past 4 or so days
ive really had very little problem with his bullpen management.
and the last 4 days have been a little compromised by the SP stuff.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
eh
Going back to the beginning of the season, he seems to always make the wrong call. Its either pulling a SP to early, pulling him too late, bringing in the guy that blows a lead, or w/e. Outside of a nice stretch in the beginning of the month, I don’t think Wash has done that well of a job.

NIXON: NOW MORE THAN EVER
the bunt
Well executed… not sure if it’s what we want here, although Shelton hasn’t had a great game so far
i just dont think the chance of a vazquez sac fly
hes already in scoring position… let both shelton and vazquez take shots at a single instead of just vazquez going for a sac fly.

A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
HOLY F
is bunting really the right play there? your going to count on your bullpen to hold a 1 run lead
Shelton
For all th shit he gets, he had a good game last night. You don’t bunt with him when Vazquez is up next.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
You've got a runner on second
Why not take 2 shots at a single? (of course, now Vazquez hits the sac fly, and makes me look dumb, but that’s still not what I would have done).
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
Or
have a runner on 3rd with one out and a run scores on a single or a sac fly. Your hatred of the bunt is getting in the way of you seeing a smart baseball move.
It's a 1-run lead
And our bullpen sucks right now. I would rather try for the RBI single, and get another baserunner.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
yet here we are with another base runner
and now he can steal 2nd, which he wouldn’t be able to do if Laird was sitting there.
The bunt also cost us an out
Which kills the chances of scoring multiple runs in the inning.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
it didn't kill the chances
but it did pretty much ensure the chance that we at least get 1 run, and now we are no longer tied.
this isn't a shootout
it is late in the game and it is low scoring. praying on a big inning is not the smart move. you take the one run and let the back of your bullpen hold on to it. if the3y don’t so be it. but you don’t pass up an almost sure run because your bullpen has given up a few runs in the previous games. God you would be a terrible manager
Because I would let my guys swing with nobody out and a RISP??
Please.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
not to mention the fact that its raining
and if the game is called its better to be up 1 than be tied.
On the other hand
If it were Hamilton, yeah, it would be stupid to bunt… but Shelton’s not a heavy hitter and he seems ot be having beginner’s luck with the bunts.
yeah exactly
with a runner on 3rd and one out the run scores on a hit or sac fly.
with a runner on 2nd and 0 out there are too many ways the runner doesn’t move at all. ground ball to the left side, fly ball to shallow right or center, pretty much any fly to left field, and a single does not guarantee a run scores anyway.
that even makes my point stronger
shelton had his first succesful sac. in like 3 years yesterday
by blueballlefty on May 13, 2008 9:05 PM CDT up reply actions
the bunt was a stupid play there
when you are depending on a shaky tired bullpen now
by blueballlefty on May 13, 2008 9:07 PM CDT up reply actions
For the few who are hitting like Shelton
I can live with a bunt. I don’t agree with giving the out guaranteed, but when you have less than a 20% chance to move the runner, I can live with moving the runner over from third.
I think maybe he didn't slide
Because of his wrist maybe.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
yet another example of why the W-L record is a useless stat
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
yeah
But I think it is a nice way to reward pitchers who have pitched well enough to earn one. I hate seeing the stupidity of the stat screw over guys like Gabbard who didn’t give up a single run but the pitcher after him gave up 2 and now won’t get a W no matter what happens.
but it also rewards pitchers who may have caused the starter to get a ND
ask Millwood what he thinks of the W-L record
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
Runs should be split
Why can’t the pitcher that put the runner on take half of the run and the pitcher than allowed the run to score take the other half. As for who gets the W or L, it should be the guy that was pitching when the run scored, imo.
by robert_d_wilfong on May 13, 2008 9:15 PM CDT up reply actions
it should
count as an unearned run. Its not the original pitcher’s fault that another guy let the baserunners score, but its not the new pitcher’s fault that he came into the game with runners on base.
but that takes away stats from the batters
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
Botts tonight: 3 AB w/ 2 K's so far

In t-ball
you’d be out. You have to hit it out of the circle around the tee.
by robert_d_wilfong on May 13, 2008 9:54 PM CDT up reply actions
win
thats what the game is about. And to win you have to score more runs than the other team. While sitting around and waiting for a 5 run inning may be fun the simple fact is in a low scoring game in the 6th inning you take the runs when they are available. And you have a much much higher chance of scoring a run with a man on 3rd and 1 out with the bottom of your lineup coming up than a man on 2nd and 0 out with the bottom of your lineup coming up.
Now if they would only work on the only stat that matters

but ill lay off him now

Gerald Laird is my hero.
DeRosa was pretty
mediocre before his “breakout” year.

If you would have asked me 2 weeks ago
i would have considered the rangers being 20 under more likely than 1.

Guardado was supposed to mentor CJ this year? Well, I hope CJ was taking notes…

Hey...
...we have a better record than the Yankees. And a smaller payroll.
by The Best Micah on May 13, 2008 10:02 PM CDT reply actions
that's what a closer is supposed to look like
throw strikes, get people out quickly…......and be angry!!!
GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

good lesson for CJ too
have to throw (not overthrow) strikes
If you want some slack, bring your own rope.
Rangers
have won 5 straight against Hernandez and Bedard. Not bad.

Please forgive any and all typos, mispellings, etc.
Your kindess in this matter is appreciated.
by red shoe ranger on May 13, 2008 11:17 PM CDT up reply actions
so
we trading Laird or Salty? We can’t have both…
"I thought that was bull," Washington said. "What is he 6-13? That's just frustration. He overreacted." - Wash on Sexson
Laird's older
He gets traded.
A Lonestar in California - 2.0
David Murphy rocks, so Ellsbury can just go get himself a taco or something.
Salty's younger
So he’d bring back a lot more in return. Which is why he might get traded, if the right deal is out there.

Is there
A right deal that doesn’t include a starting pitcher?
by brettgardner on May 13, 2008 10:21 PM CDT up reply actions
i hope JD does a trade
in the Bmac for Danks, or Garza for Young mold.
"I thought that was bull," Washington said. "What is he 6-13? That's just frustration. He overreacted." - Wash on Sexson
I guess
you always listen to any offer but I am on board with pitching. The Rangers’s position player situation is a lot better off than their pitching.
Well
I wouldn’t, for example, take an Andrus in return, unless it was in conjunction with an MLB-ready player.

If Feldman gets the W tomorrow...
the last 3 pitchers to get wins for us would be:
Mathis, Rupe, Feldman
Weird.
