love me some murph...
that’s a relatively quiet 11 HR, 55 RBI…damn, imagine if he hadn’t slumped for the past month
It's on WGN HD
if anyone is interested in flipping over between innings
I'm undefeated in fights. Have I been in any? No. Thats because people know my f'ing status. Don't mess with the elite. - Miles
Harden Vs. Danks
pretty good matchup there

There is a guy
who more than just was a defensible pick for the AS game.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
Yeah, but...
There are two guys in that lineup who are hitting above .248…
Wes Bankston (6 for 18) and Something Petit (6 for 19).

Well, then the Rangers are probably interested
look at our pitching staff for proof

YES
for some reason I’ve always loved him although the history for former A’s dominators are not great, Hudson has been succesful but other than that noone has been that great

OT: Volquez update
Since we are getting Danks updates, Volquez has given up 3 runs on 3 BBs and 5 hits through 6 IP. He’s only at 89 pitches so he’ll likely go one more. His ERA on the season is now 2.36
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
and its against the
dead last in every offensive category known to man, Washington Nationals
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

I’ve got the package, but I noticed today that I’m actually getting the Rangers game on the FSSW (that channel’s always blocked for me). And I noticed I’m getting other locals that are usually blocked. Anyone know why?

Feisty Old Man Syndrome Today

I love David Murphy.
He is such a good baseball player.

Not really
He’s a good 4th outfielder.

I was being
sarcastic. See the previous game thread. I said I’d rather have Boggs on the roster than Murph, and I stand by that.

all star roster
MY/Kins are the only reserve 2b/ss, so they should get a lot of itme.
although I guess they might play guillen at short.
2 games over 500 please.
I still say
it sets Kins up to have the game-winning hit when he comes in to replace Pedroia

Griffey isn't going crazy he got outvoted in the last week
Don’t worry though I talked to him a few years ago, he said he doesn’t even like going to the all-star game anymore.
Incidentally...
Is Longoria v. Murphy as A.L. ROY still in dispute? Or can we agree that Murphy doesn’t deserve to be the ROY?
He does.,...
AJM loves nothing more than to be right.
I still love ya AJM….but it’s true.

What is there to talk about right now.
Season will start and you’ll throw your little digs out there any time they struggle.
What is there to say?
They are an old, not very good team with a bunch of big contracts that is stuck in limbo. Good enough to make the playoffs, not good enough to do anything once they get there.
I guess that is “Mavs bashing,” though.

You don't rip them "all the time"

All true....
It’s not the truth to your words it’s the schadenfruede you have when they come up in conversation. I get the feeling that if the Mavs won it would hurt you a little bit because then you’d be wrong. I’m not the only one here. I think MANY folks would agree with me.

Why?
Because I think Murphy is a 4th outfielder, and thought that people getting bent out of shape over him not being pushed as ROY instead of Longoria earlier this year were being ridiculous.

McCarthy was major league ready
Danks was not, supposedly. I understand the reason for doing it… I don’t like it either but we have to live with it and not dwell on it.
exactly "supposedly" who got that wrong?
and I dont think you will find anyone dwelling on it here. but its definately something that the people responsible should be held accountable for!
by blueballlefty on Jul 6, 2008 2:37 PM CDT up reply actions
You dwelled on it not me
I was just giving updates on a former Ranger pitching a no-hitter, then you brought up the fact that the trade sucked.
You wouldn't have said anything if it wasn't Danks
What’s the point of doing that if their game is in the 5th inning?
I've bashed the front office plenty...
and when I do it, I’m pretty straight-forward about it. McCarthy has been hurt so that makes it somewhat problematic to judge the trade, however I don’t think he would be doing as well as Danks is currently doing, and Danks is younger.
The better John Danks does
Means the better job our coaches did with him in the minors.

we all watched Danks grow in our farm system
and we were big fans of his. I’m still a fan of his, that’s all. I imagine many fans here wish him well and want him to do well.

Unlikely...
Not likely the White Sox give up 4 runs and still have the no hitter

I knew that...
but I’d also like to see a loss on Danks to shut some people up.
Stars in a Texas Night Sky, a Dallas Stars blog from a fan's perspective.
Nah...
it’s the same with all the ex-rangers that people continue to give appearance by appearance updates on.
Every organization gives up decent prospects at times and you don’t see other teams constantly stuck in the past looking at them.
Stars in a Texas Night Sky, a Dallas Stars blog from a fan's perspective.
Tell Cleveland that...
or Detroit that with the Willis trade, or any number of other trades.
All teams make boneheaded trades of prospects.
Stars in a Texas Night Sky, a Dallas Stars blog from a fan's perspective.
I guess it's tough
when you are told for three years that DVD is the answer and then they are traded and do well anyways.
That's more just because the Rangers are a bit unique...
most teams don’t have a Jamey Newberg that covers the minors so in depth and most other teams’ fans couldn’t name more than 3-5 prospects in their entire farm system

Saying he's been our best pitcher is like saying ...
he’s the smartest kid on the short bus. You’re not really being complimentary.
he's done his job
my biggest problem wit him is he is not good at pitching with a lead, you put him in there down 1 to 0 and he’ll throw 7 innings without a hit but he can blow a 5 run lead with the best of them

"Boy, that is a gutless, 6-foot-7, .200-hitting formerly good player. What a joke." -Tom Grieve RE: Richie Sexson
It's time to trade Millwood.
His numbers this year are almost the same as his numbers last season. He allows WAY too many baserunners and has progressively declined while he’s been here. I’d almost rather watch anybody on the mound than him at this point.
I don't think there is going to be an opportunity to sell high.
He’s turned to crap and isn’t getting any better.
I don't mind either
If McCarthy can really be healthy for next year, I wouldn’t mind a rotation of
Sheets
Padilla
Hurley
Feldman
Harrison
Wow, a pitcher turning a simple double play.
That must be nice.
i love Cat
easily the most underrated player on the team. no respect for him and his OBP potential. plus he’s the nicest guy in baseball IMO. If there was any one player in baseball I think I could get along with, it would be Cat. He’s my favorite not popular player EVER.

i saw that the previous 2 sets had been won 7-6
obviously to win the whole thing its different then. ok now i get it.

No i was wrong
apparently in the last set of the wimbeldon they just keep going until someone is two up on games rather than playing a normal seven-point tiebreaker.

From Newberg Report
The significant thing about the player vote with regard to Kinsler, Young,
and Bradley is that they actually received more votes from their peers than
the players who will start received. Kinsler earned 389 player votes,
Dustin Pedroia 215; Young 470, Derek Jeter 463; Bradley 481, nobody else
listed.
And from EG:
Great news!
According to the players’ ballots, the Rangers should have four starting All-Stars.All four of the Rangers players who were named to the team led the voting among their peers at their respective positions. Ian Kinsler, for example, outpointed starter Dustin Pedroia, 389-215 at second base. Michael Young won a close race at shortstop, beating starter Derek Jeter, 470-463. The other spots were absolute jokes. Josh Hamilton led the outfielders with 657 votes; Manny Ramirez (358) was the only guy within 300 points of him. And Milton Bradley had 481 votes for the DH spot. MLB didn’t even bother to list a second-place finisher to him – if there was one.
Guaranteed, this is what is going to make the Rangers’ proudest: Their peers thought they should be playing.

Holy f'n s.
That game point between Nadal and Federed just now was absolutely nuts.

This is just unbelievable.
It’s amazing that there is a clear two-player battle for No. 1 and No. 2 in the world, and then literally everyone else.
These guys are just in a different league.
Break point for Rafa. This is his chance.

what?
i didn’t see electrician throw his gum on the way to the dugout…..damnit
Bradley has tendonitis
Per EG…this is good news, as a whole.
Make the All-Star Game one minute; leave the game with a sore knee the next. Here’s what is significant: It is not his surgically repaired knee and the Rangers claim they are simply being extremely cautious.

well I watched like 15 hours of the open and 10 minutes of that match
so yeah for me obviously i care more about the more us-centric sport with the american star, just saying in general.
2 games over 500 please.
exactly....
nothing beats tiger….one of the best moments in the history of sport
that's just awful

Kinda OT...
All signs are pointing to Milwaukee getting CC in the next few days.
It looks like the Dodgers have pulled out, TB is going to get a BP arm instead and maybe a bat, and the Cubs dont have the horses.
Milwaukee wants an answer in the next 24-48 hours because they want all the starts they can out of CC. CC next start is supposed to be tomorrow, so..if the Brewers are planning replacing Bush who starts Thurs with CC, look for CC’s start tomorrow to get pushed back…
Yup...
but unfortunately that measn the bottom of the order follows them

Baltimore should just issue...

Anyone notice the O’s stadium music? The Cranberries followed by April Levigne’s “Kiss Me.”
Yeah, that gets me pumped for baseball.
Nothing pithy here. Please move long.

was because connor was visiting the mound…it was for the “IN YOUR HEADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD” line

"Kiss Me"
By Sixpence None the Richer NOT Avril Levingne
And I suppose they were doing a Kiss Cam, maybe?

Heh
Lavigne and Sixpence None the Richer aren’t even particularly close.
It reminds me of when Ben claimed that Barenaked Ladies and Eagle-Eye Cherry sounded the exact same.

Would you propose they talk more about...
