We need to hire Chuck Norris to kick the ass of any Ranger fan caught booing one of our young pitchers at the RBiA.

Okay

We need a big inning. Like a 5-7 run inning. Let’s make it happen offense.

I have high hopes for this guy

Arredondo

So when K-Rod leaves, is Arredondo their closer??

Also

They won’t have Tex, K-Rod, Kotchman and maybe even Vlad…who else might be gone from the team in 2009??

Anderson and Figgins

they have decisions on both those guys.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they resigned TEx.

by FirebatM3 on Aug 30, 2008 10:27 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Kevin Jepsen is another possibility

He was the closer for the olympic team and was, I believe, pretty impressive.

by naropean on Aug 30, 2008 10:26 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Kelvim Escobar

if he gets healthy, I’d bet he is the guy. But I’d really be surprised if they let K-Rod get away.

Warner Madrigal makes Ezequiel Astacio look downright handsome.

wow....

we got a second gameday thread.

I didn’t think I would see this for the rest of the season.

i like baseball too

You know...

That wasn’t that great a play. It was a nice play, but it wasn’t a play that any good CF’er wouldn’t have made.

by Adam J. Morris on Aug 30, 2008 10:28 PM CDT   0 recs

Yeah

But don’t tell the Angel cheerleaders that.

3 nights in a row? REally?

by TxStCa on Aug 30, 2008 10:29 PM CDT   0 recs

i was behind on the game

but that “call” is seriously the worst call i have seen in my life, even in little league.

i mean at first i was mad because i thot the ump said he didnt touch the plate but was safe on the 2nd tag but after TAG said that the ump was saying he touched it the first time i exploded.

this game should be played under appeal, he was 2 feet away from the plate AND went back to touch the plate

I give up

by Steal Home on Aug 30, 2008 10:29 PM CDT   0 recs

Out of spite

I refuse to spell Hunter’s name correctly…what kind of bull-shit is adding a second ‘i’? It’s a shitty enough name with just one

What's the rumpus?

I look forward to next year

where his kids will be mocked in school because their father sucks at the game of baseball.

And when their team is a distant 2nd looking up to the battle for dominance between the Rangers and the As.

by FirebatM3 on Aug 30, 2008 10:31 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

It'll still be on BT Web Gems

just cuz it’s Hunter and he left this feet.

Him or Carlos Gomez.

Hunter

Gomez just does douchy things, Hunter takes it to the next level and acts like a douche.

Gomez

I’d take him on my team any day…Hunter? Not a fucking chance

and looks like one too

the better question is, Who is the Bigger Douche – Tori Hunter or Nick Swisher?

by FirebatM3 on Aug 30, 2008 10:32 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Hunter

no, money down!

by oc on Aug 30, 2008 10:35 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Hunter

And you’re right, Hunter is probably worse than Gomez.

Luis is effective as a reliever…That starter role, however is a different story…
