I guess Ballard
Was not called up after all. They’re gonna try and get through this game with the bullpen, and they’re gonna start Mendoza on short rest on Friday.

anyway im glad we didnt throw ballard out v the angels
its a bad matchup.. with rivera in the lineup most of their decent hitters are righties.

changed their mind
going with the madrigal/rupe/wright platoon start from the bullpen.
possibly to avoid sending down harrison or whoever they would have.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
he would have cleared waivers
i dont think they were too concerned about that.
i meant who they would have had to send down to get im up.
although, padilla was DL’d anyway.

The story.
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Rangers scratched All-Star designated hitter Milton Bradley from the lineup Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Angels because of soreness in his left knee.
Texas also put pitcher Vicente Padilla on the 15-day disabled list with a stiff neck, retroactive to Saturday, and recalled right-hander Wes Littleton from Triple-A Oklahoma.

seems he got worse
since laird went down and he gets to play more often. i’m sure the numbers don’t back it up, but that’s how it seems
http://www.buchanan4pres2008.org/
NIXON: NOW MORE THAN EVER
well he was slumping before laird went down
but hes been slumping for the entire salty era thus far so im sure the numbers do back it up.
at least hes thrown out runers since laird went down, but obviously this level of offense from an offensive catcher is unacceptable. hes certainly not seizing his oppurtunity.
that said I still like him long term and think he will snap out of it.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
His defense has improved greatly since he got to play every day
But the bat… just not there. And it seems to be getting worse, as he continues to strike out more. I don’t know what needs to be done to fix him, but if he doesn’t get his shit together soon, he’s going to be sent back down.

NIXON: NOW MORE THAN EVER
dont see a huge difference in coaching ability in either of teams....just philosophy
OU/UT/A&M have that talent but they still lose
Damn

Defense is solid. Offense is weak.

it was wise to go after cat

I’d drive to the ballpark to get in on that…

hamilton
a double would be nice at this point

just tie the game please
bloop single, whatever.

bloop single might not get it done
with a gimpy cat

time to pull a maris and mantle
switch Bradley and Hamilton in the order…

and hear i was just going to compliment murphy's strikezone judgement
for the first time in.. ever. and he immediately swings at ball 4.
although theres an argument he had already taken 4 balls.

That blew
I really wish the Angels bullpen wasn’t so amazing. I can’t get too excited about Weaver leaving the game soon knowing Shields and K-Rod are there.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
while I hate to give him credit
weaver fields his position pretty well
A few questions....
1.Why is Milton Bradley sitting in an important divisional game?
2.What has happened to Hamiltons power?
Anyone else think
That the HR derby will actually help Hamilton’s power?
OMG milton has a sore knee for the fucking 10th time.
The funny thing about my back is that its located on my cock.
wrong knee

Nope
It is quicker to run through the base than sliding.
"Would you mind walking a time or two so I could drive in some runs"? Milton Bradley
yeah
sliding doesn’t speed you up at all. it would slow you down. it’s for avoiding the tag, not beating it
http://www.buchanan4pres2008.org/
NIXON: NOW MORE THAN EVER
and so you dont overran the bag at 2b/3b.
there is no reason to ever slide into first. well, going from home anyway.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
Only time a slide into 1st base ever makes sense...
is if the throw is high and the first baseman is trying to make a swipe tag on his way back to the ground.
Stars in a Texas Night Sky, a Dallas Stars blog from a fan's perspective.
i don't mean to pick on you
but it’s strange that this myth hasn’t been put to bed. sliding is NEVER faster.

third times a charm for davis
this time he connects.

well, props to rupe anyway
i was thinking 4 runs in 2 1/3 after his first couple batters, not 1 run in 3.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
wow
I just noticed the Rangers have 7 LOB
it’s like April all over again
except Hamilton is responsible for a lot of that

the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
all i said is that he would connect
he connected… kind of

Davis
he’ll learn soon enough

Whoever wanted Davis to swing at the first pitch more
Take it back right now.
