Gio Gonzalez
He and his 4.24 AAA ERA are starting against the Tigers on Thursday, per minorleagueball fanshot…
Go Strangers.
ghtd36, master of images,
we’re going to need you to step it up if the Rangers are gonna pull it off tonight. I’m expecting big things from you.
There is no such thing as global warming. David Murphy was cold, so he turned the sun up.

I will continue to pick the Yankees as a reverse-jinx.

SI Player's Poll
Which rookie has impressed you the most?
Based on a survey of 449 MLB playersGeovany Soto, Cubs C…...21%
Evan Longoria, Rays 3B…...16%
Edinson Volquez, Reds P…...16%
Jacoby Ellsbury, Red Sox OF…...12%
Jay Bruce, Reds OF…...10%
One of these things is not like the other. One of these things does not belong.
hmm
ellsbury is putting up .259/ .323/ .352/ 77+
longoria is putting up .276/ .348/ .530/ 133+
bruce is putting up .272/ .324/ .443/ 97+
soto is putting up .279/ .355/ .493/ 118+
volquez is 13-4, 139 strikeouts 166 ERA+ (is he really a rookie)
ellsbury doesn’t belong. in fact, murphy should be listed instead with his line of .271/ .318/ .463/ 106+
http://www.buchanan4pres2008.org/
NIXON: NOW MORE THAN EVER
I'm so glad Longoria is going to run away with the ROY voting
because if he wasn’t around, Ellsbury would win and Murphy wouldn’t get any votes, and I don’t think I could handle it anymore.
I hate Boston…
well it does say
‘has impressed you most’ not ‘has been the most productive rookie according to an objective statistical criterion’
ellsbury has incredible speed and what might be called an exciting style of play, so i could understand him being thought of in that context. it just goes to show though that players arent necessarily in tune to the same things fans and the media are when it comes to evaluating a player’s performance.

I wish there were a way where Josh could bat 3rd.
Don’t like to see him leading off the 2nd inning so much.
II Cor. 4:17-18
Yeah
Cuz those 3 guys in front of him all hitting over .290 NEVER get on base.

Rangers can’t hit lefties….
Rangers won last night….
Harrison on the mound….
We seem to struggle to get to the next game above .500 from where we are…
This game dosen’t look good.
8-2 Yankees.
Salty checking in.
Harrison you better not act like Jodie Foster in the accused tonight on the mound.
None of this crying shit.
Two starts ago I think
He had that sob look on his face like he just skinned his knee.

He definitely cried in his White Sox outing
And nearly cried during his last outing - at least he looked like he was about to

Did that guy

Ric Renner is the suck.
And he reminds me of Guile from Street Fighter.

Question for anybody with a DVR...
You know what it means when there is a K next to a show that is recorded, right? It means KEEP. As in “hey, I liked that show, I think I’ll keep it”. So that’s what I do last night after the game is over is KEEP the great walk off win that I now will have until I decide to make room for another big win.
Well, I come home tonight and tell my wife that she missed a heckuva game last night but that’s OK because it was so good that I recorded it for her.
The next words out of her mouth were “Oh, I think I deleted that game today”.
She had no idea what the big K was for.
A question for you
Why does she have access to the DVR? They have lock codes on those things for a reason.

The Nadel walkoff call
I understand there was some clamoring for Nadel’s call of last night’s walkoff, and I’ve presented that (as well as Ian Kinsler’s great 10-minute interview on the Hardline this afternoon) here:
http://mvn.com/mlb-rangers/2008/08/05/this-club-is-incredible/
Not to shabby
Maybe im just weird, but I really like how Josh calls big moments. When I lived up at school I would always goto Texasrangers.com and watch all the highlight clips with his calls, maybe thats why.

performance for Harrison tonight? If he could hold the Yankees to 4R over 6 innings, I’d take it.

Obviously he grew up a Rangers fan, and I guess he was a catcher to boot.
Anyway, he said before the game today apparently that yesterday he was so in awe and nervous of standing in the box while Pudge was behind the plate that he couldn’t bring himself to look at or talk to him.
Wahahahaha
This is funny.

in full effect. Can’t wait to have him hot again, hopefully saving it for some meaningful Sept.
Harder to have a meaningful September when your struggling in August.
Those games count just as much.
Well right now Young is hot, so is Gerald
Let him work things out and be ready for stretch run. Same with MB out of lineup.

It really seems to me like this Rangers team believes they should be a playoff team this year…It just drives me nuts that they split with Seattle!! And Hamilton damn well better be the MVP if the Rangers even get close to getting the WC.
