From what I can see if you don’t have an Intel Mac you’re basically SOL. I don’t see VPC running this well enough to be useful.

Lineup

2B Ian Kinsler
3B Ramon Vazquez
SS Michael Young
DH Josh Hamilton
LF David Murphy
CF Marlon Byrd
1B Chris Davis
LF Brandon Boggs
C Max Ramirez

by blueballlefty on Jul 10, 2008 6:41 PM CDT   0 recs

atleast Feldman

doesnt have to worry about any misreads on fly balls by Hamilton

by blueballlefty on Jul 10, 2008 6:42 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I still don't understand Davis batting 7th.

I understand not batting him cleanup (that’s supposedly a big pressure situation), but can’t you scoot him in front of Byrd?

Davis is hitting like .190

Look past the HRs for a second. He is getting absolutely manhandled by pitchers

Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.

by bigsteve on Jul 10, 2008 6:44 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

i wouldnt say that

i think hes been fairly unlucky on his non-hr contact.

last night wasnt his best night with weak popups and a bad k, but in general he hasnt been swinging at a bunch of junk and making weak contact on everything besides his HRs or anything.

that said i agree that he doesnt need to be pushed up in the lineup until he gets his average up.

At least he landed a punch...

how many times do you see a mound rush where no one lands a punch, not a pitcher, not a hitter, no one

by rangers85 on Jul 10, 2008 6:56 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Well

since they changed his arm slot, he’ll probably come over the top this time.
