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

Nah...
He’s just been arguing with us all night that Murph is a 4th OF.
Which he’s not.
Ian Kinsler has finally earned the right to be the third of my co-favorite players.
Ok, let's put it this way
Murphy is not a starting corner OF on a playoff team.
Time you enjoy wasting was not wasted.
Okay, well then say THAT instead =P

This is not good
Rupe, I may start hating you if you blow this W for Matt.

I won’t hate him, but he’ll definitely get the cold shoulder for awhile. Women are good at that.

Rangers Expected Record (before tonight) with Average Pitching
64-49
At current rate of exceeding our expected record: 69-44
So, watching Matt Harrison, how long before we can have that? And that’s to say nothing of the defense, which affects that, is currently also well below average, and I have to believe is also soon to improve.
We all know we don't have average pitcing and would be a playoff team if we did.

I'm pretty sure mine is along the same lines as his
And I’m a couple of years younger than him. I have more hair than him, but I’m pretty sure it will be like his in a couple of years. It sucks.

since most of you are watching the game
you missed something pretty damn funny on BBTN. They were interviewing Tommy John, which was pretty cool on its own. But in the segment, he made some quick comment about not being as smart as John Kruk, lol it was freaking hilarious. When they came back from the commercial, Kruk said something like, he tried to outsmart me, by saying i was smarter than him, i’m not particularly happy about that, but i’ll take it…
lol, it was so funny to hear Kruk’s feelings got hurt.

Off course not in this series, but maybe in next before Boston.
you people are thinking too much...
...this is a team…
when one person’s down, another picks up after him.
He was on Hardline today
He does not have a big head. Still sees his name on MVP race as rediculous, Hambone should be there not me. Just needs some rest. Atleast his defense has been solid when the offense has deserted him.
Absolutely agree.
But that attitude is what makes this team so awesome in my eyes.

Wilson was pissed and flipped the ball at washington. Common Courtesy is you hand it to him. Wash gave it back to CJ and made it hand it to him.

I know CJ’s frustrated, but that isn’t gonna score him any points with Wash.

Wow.
CJ better get DFA’d if only for that bullshit right there. His performance should have been enough to have that happen anyway, but this is fucking ridiculous. You don’t act like that to your manager, I don’t care if it’s Ron, Buck, anyone.

CJ flipped the ball to Wash
Its custom to HAND the ball to the manager. Washington didn’t appreciate that very much.
So what do you do with CJ now?
"There is nothing wrong with a good baseball argument, even if it gets a little personal now and then. If someone here get[s] their feelings hurt because of a blog post they really need to get a grip."
t ball
Either send him down or only let him pitch in blow outs
"Sooner or later, prospects kill you, because you hang onto them." - Greggo, 11/22/2005
Put him on the DL
then stick him in the pen and let him work his way back into a prominent role. Has to get his confidence back.
ugh
The whole CJ situation just bums me out.

eek...
as much as I like CJ… he’s really working his way off this team…

Confidence
Now is this same treatment that Wash gave for Mardigal. Let the kid try to go out there in a non Game situation and let him work out his issues. He seemed to have tried to put too much into fastball and had no control. Then when he brought it down, it was hittable. He needs to be in control over his stuff from first pitch.
