9/10 Minors Playoff thread
Ok, up for the Riders is Neftali "Gasoline" Feliz. Since the Rangers' pitching was horrendous today, let's hope Neftali can follow up Dutch (even though it was a loss) with a strong performance. Going for NW Arky, is Mosebach.
For the Redhawks, it's Derek Lee vs. Chris Gassel for the Rivercats. Hawks need this one after losing 8-4 last night. That game doesn't start till 9:"05 so should be over about the time the Riders are finishing up the win also.That 75 words yet?

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

i dont think so
too crowded. cruz needs to play every single game the rest of the year, no question. hammy is going to play.
id rather let boggs play the rest of the year than JMJ if cruz gets pushed.
at least as far as real playing time. letting him get a game or two and hang around for a bit.. sure.
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
plus murphy will probably still try to get a week in at least.

I'd sit Murphy...
the rest of the year. I don’t see a whole lot of reason to play him for a week at the end of the season.
Hamiton could use a day or 2 off each week the next 3 weeks and Byrd could use 3 or 4 games off a week the rest of the season. I would rather see JMJ get a few AB’s right now over Byrd and Murphy.

Ummm
Nef? 2 runs in the 1st? Thank god this is his last start (or it should be). I think he’s gassed (minus the last start)
Well shit. Did Superman lose his cape?

Neftali gassed?

Neftali's line...
6 5 3 2 2 6 0.
A fairly average line for him. Still pretty good after a little bit of control issues in the first.

OKC up...
6-2 in the 4th.
Let’s hope they can hold on to even that series as well.

Favorable pitching matchups
With Oklahoma up 10-2 in the 6th, it appears that both the Redhawks and RoughRiders will return home tied 1-1 in their best-of-five series. In addition to having three home games to win the two necessary to take championships, it appears that both teams will benefit from favorable pitching matchups in Games 3 and 4.
RoughRiders vs Travelers
Game 3
Schlact (sub 3.00 ERA in August) vs Denham (>8.00 ERA in August)
Game 4
Hyatt (sub 3.00 ERA in August) vs Austen (~5 ERA in August)
Redhawks vs River Cats
Game 3
Hunter (2.00 ERA in August) vs Mazzaro (6.00 ERA in August)
Game 4
Ballard (~5.00 ERA in August) vs Knox (>6.00 ERA in August)
It would be very nice...
if they could both pull out the championships.

I think it would be a first
I haven’t found any other season that three Ranger minor league teams won championships.

If they have...
it certainly predates my fandom.
