This is going to be on tough series
I would say we take 3 out of 4 but against this pitching i think the mostly likely situation is a split.
The funny thing about my back is that its located on my cock.

Am I the only one
that is incredibly anxious and incredibly nervous about this series?

Nope.
This is pretty much one of the biggest series in quite a while for the Rangers.

It is crazy how much rides on this series
I’m a little annoyed that we haven’t played them since mid-April, and the result of that is the entire season pretty much rides on this series.

look at it this way...
...these aren’t your April Rangers…
...no Ben Broussards here… no Hank Blalocks… no Jason Botts…
the mental mistakes aren’t happening anymore… there hasn’t been very many boneheaded plays since that Byrd-missing-the-sign-to-come-home since the last time we played them.
the Angels?... they no-hit the Dodgers, and still lost.
they couldn’t get a run off of the ‘Ho in 6 innings…
Rangers have nothing to lose anyway… this is their series.

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

Why is Byrd on the team?
By all accounts, Boggs can play CF quite adequately. Let’s find out a little more about him—such as whether he will ever be able to handle RHP in the future. Byrd is not part of this future, at all.

You want to know why
people are acting like this is one of the biggest series in a long time? Because it is one of the biggest series in a long time. Win or lose, suck or succeed the rest of the season, the Rangers have a chance to gain ground if they can get 3. Sure, it’s unlikely, but does that mean we should say…. bah, screw it? I sure as hell hope not.

I hate to say this but...
sweeping the Angels might not be the best thing for the Rangers. This team isn’t built to compete this season and I fear what the front office might do at the deadline if we keep it close.
I’d much rather sell and acquire more arms so that we can make a realistic run in ‘09.

t ball this morning...
Duran, rookies; Angels series
Is it me or is he looking a bit better lately? Good to see Max and Davis drawing walks yesterday as well.
In some ways sweeping the Angels would be bad. The last thing I want is for Hicks and/or Daniels to get the idea of tilting at the windmill of contention this year. This team has a lot of young wild cards and injury issues in addition to a hugely questionable pitching staff. Even adding an ace to the rotation might not make them a contender, and the cost might be more than we could bear down the road.
Time you enjoy wasting was not wasted.

I agree.
But I want to believe the FO has the resolve to not try and pursue the playoffs if we’re in contention at the All-Star break (at the expense of the farm).
I would love being in a pennant race with what we’ve got, and I want to believe doing that won’t get managements heads too far up in the clouds.

Who do you propose to go after at the deadline
that could help this team in ‘09? A mlb level pitcher? Who would you part with? How about AAA/mlb ready pitching? Those guys are top fucking notch prospects and you’d better be ready to bend over and take it to get them. A/AA pitching? Those guys are typically not ready to jump up to MLB in the same year, unless they are a beasticon. If so, they’ll cost a shitload of MLB talent. If not, how the hell will they help in ‘09?
It’s easy to say let’s look to next year, but it’s not so easy to get the help for the right cost that can contribute in ‘09 without giving up a key piece in return.

OT, but not worth a diary or shout.
I just noticed today, as I was brousing the relative arguments for the various “Final Ballot” stars, that Evan Longoria-Parker has a 0.1 WARP lead over Ian Kinsler (who I thought was leading the AL). And I consider Ian the first-half AL MVP.
I’m not about to use that to call Longoria better than Kinsler, but I will use that to say just HOW good Evan Longoria has been as a rookie is getting largely overlooked. I think everyone considers him the ROY to this point (with an argument from a few pitchers maybe), but I don’t think anyone is talking about him being an MVP level player.

Mendoza just pissed
away his starting rotation spot.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

Back to life, back to NEFTALI.

gloated about the rangers losing?
yeah, i see.
2 games over 500 please.

Not glad about the rangers losing
But not sad either, why is that DSheppard?
BECAUSE THEY STOPPED MATTERING A LONG LONG TIME AGO.
What matters is player development and trading of valued pieces to put together a team that can actually compete for the world series.

I see
you were an abrasive asshole. Oh, sorry, were you looking for a different response?
There is no such thing as global warming. David Murphy was cold, so he turned the sun up.

Really, really sucks

FOTF booted a very manageable double play ball
that led to an Angel run.

I can't say I'm surprised the Angels are doing this to us
But it certainly doesn’t make me very happy.

So
just got here and dont know if its been said but did Mendoza just lose his job to Harrison?

Mendoza...
...what a fucking loser. look at that half-ass body language, his face…
he’s beating himself up and not focusing.

And I bet he smells! Yeah!
And I bet his VCR is still flashing “12:00”!

Yeah...
Go get the kid, Ron…
He’s obviously not in it tonight. You can already tell by his body language on the mound that he’s not ready to compete and get back in this thing…

If we can't learn how to dominate the Angels..
we won’t ever compete. It seems like 20% of our games are against them.

This team has played well for a good stretch...
then all of a sudden the Angels come in and we look like a retarded kid humping a tree.
chokers!....

L.O.L.
Who’s the retarded kid humping the tree tonight? Lots to choose from in the blue shirts.

I apologize if this has been mentioned on another thread but
Jamie Burke (Seattle’s 3rd catcher) pitched a scoreless inning in their 15-inning game last night. Can you see Max going out there and tossing an inning? If not, which of our players do you think we’d send out there in a similar situation?

Well
Ben Broussard and Chris Shelton are gone, so about the only expendable guy left on the roster is Byrd.

Duran maybe.
The most inconsequential player we have who can actually put it over the plate.

If any player is eligble
I think he threw some insane heat in HS.

Hamilton
Didn’t he throw in the mid 90s in HS?
by GregoryM on Jul 7, 2008 7:43 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, he touched high 90s.
But he’s far, far too important to put on the mound.
