Ham at Clean-up
Anyone looked to see how he has fared at 4th versus 3rd? Sure the sample size is quite small but seems he has struggled at clean up. Just curious.

MLB.com says this would be the Ranger's first sweep
of this year (assuming they win). Is that right? I could have sworn we had swept…somebody.
Go Rangers!
Scotty Feldman
Oh how my tune has changed about you. At one point during spring training and the beginning of the season I actually dedicated a solid 15 to 20 mins a day of actually finding you and performing my own style of Tommy John surgery.
Now you are one start away from making it out of the Salty doghouse.

Does anyone remember a TV character named Officer Feldman (hint: he didn’t talk)?
It's baseball. You don't always get what you want, and you don't always want what you get. --Ed Coffin
nope
There was a syndicated sports clip show on TV in the early 1990s called “Roggin’s Heroes”, starring Fred Roggin, a sportscaster from LA.
Officer Feldman was a bald headed dude that just stood there with a stoic look on his face the entire show.
It was like “George Michael’s Sports Machine”, but was funny, too.

it was 3-1
but with the bases loaded you still take 100% of the time if you are not a middle of the order hitter.

if he swings
i’m leaving work and heading towards arlington.

"My death certificate will probably say: 'Cause of Death: World Series.'" Jamey Newberg
i will say
that was a really tough call for Wash. I wouldnt have put Byrd in simply because it seems like he has been hitting ground ball double plays to SS all year.
We took out the hot Vazquez
for freaking cold as ice Byrd? WTF is that RWash?
"Before I leave, I once again condemn the despicable buffoonery of D.J. Cahill." - Huck
because vazquez cant hit lefties
even this year he has a .650 ops agaisnt them.
.508 for the last 3 years.
but swinging in that situation is terrrrrrrrrrrrrible.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
When a guy is locked in
its better to let him hit than an injury call up who was ice cold before the injury.
"Before I leave, I once again condemn the despicable buffoonery of D.J. Cahill." - Huck
that was weeks ago
if byrdman cant hit in that situation he shouldnt be on the team.
granted, maybe he shouldnt be on the team.

another fun reminder
that at the end of the day, no matter how many wins they rack up, Ron Washington is not a good manager
You take the bat out of a hot hitter to bring in a guy who hasn't had an AB in weeks
no matter the outcome, this was not the right move…
Grieve: The Yanks have struggled so far. - Lewin: Yeah, cry me a bag of money.
Bad, bad move

Vasquez is the hottest hitter
and has the highest average and is pulled for Byrd.

Not really
Putting the tying run on third back in April with no outs in the bottom of the ninth and not scoring was worse than this.
I have no problem with
RW decision to pinch hit for Vazquez. However, he should have used Duran instead of Byrd.

Bradley
screw resigning that guy. trade him at the break if u can. dude got hurt practicing his swing in the dugout.
at least we burned through some batters
and get the top of the order for the 8th.
Gerald Laird is my hero.
and how about Boggs not bunting...
Murph over to start off this idiotic inning. Yep Wash is a real winner, I’ve always thought that.

We have the top of the order going, and thanks to arcane and oldschool baseball thinking, they wont face JJ Fagz.
RW
That move right there should put his job into question. Pinch hit a guy who’s hitting 129 for someone that has been big time clutch? I don’t care about the lefty / righty crap!

vasquez error
hamilton with another misread. boggs with a terrible at bat. wash being stupid. byrd with the worse at bat ive ever seen.
fuck
RW
there should be a letter writing campaign to Hicks to fire the manager because he is a stupid prick.

WTF?!?
Marlon Byrd hasn’t seen major league pitching in how long? And Wash brings him off the bench in a critical situation like that! Another one of Wash’s managerial moves that baffles me. I feel for the guy, but that is one more in a long line of bone-headed decisions.
Its been almost a month since
Byrd has seen major league pitching.
RW is an R-tard.
"Before I leave, I once again condemn the despicable buffoonery of D.J. Cahill." - Huck
I didn't miss Byrd while he was gone.
Does he have options?
Yes

we've lost games because of him
i think it’s extremely safe to say that.

Hopefully One of those Options can be
...get rid of him. Forever.

This talk of Bradley being injured in the dugout
is nonsense.
He popped-up, and threw his bat overhand into the ground. That’s how he injured himself. I watched it happen in Seattle.
+ 1
like the time he wound up hurt when he snapped his bat over his leg… he’s got to get a grip with that temper.

Yep-is nonsense
he swung at a high pitch and strained it.
Look it up
...it's the weekend, so why the hell not?
What's a better story for potential trade partners
“He strained it swinging”
“His temper got the best of him again”
and now Laird for Catalanatto

Are his splits really that bad that you’d rather have Laird vs. a RHP?
--Brian
Another reason why using Byrd to PH,
RW ended up using to players. Duran has to go in to play 3B.

theres a good question.
i forgot about laird as a pinch hitter.

or do we Duran? Not so ludicrous w/ RW’s moves.
Hamilton
Careful, Wash might decide to PH for Hamilton with Duran or a reliever.
