Made me channel all my Rangers’ frustration into pity for the Brewers…they really are our NL twin. 4 bases-loaded walks? consecutively? that’s possibly the silentest grand slam i’ve ever seen. and the most inept.
i'm in shock.

but Uncle Milty...
your numbers aren’t good enough to start cherry picking your games yet.
Josh Hamilton puts his pants on one leg at a time just like you but once he gets his pants on he hits baseballs 420 feet.
He has 30 million reasons
to no longer cherry pick his games
Marcus Lemon is the Third Baseman/Leadoff Hitter of the future.
especially because there is an opt out for the cubs
if MIlton doesn’t play a certain amount of games, if i’m not mistaken
"Take me out to the ball game, Take me out with the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks, I don't care if I never get back, Let me root, root, root for the RANGERS, If they don't win it's a shame. For it's one, two, three strikes, your out, At the old ball game."
that was smart.. for the Cubbies
after Milty admitted dogging it last year to keep the numbers looking plump. 5 million reasons wasn’t enough.
Being that this is not a contract year and that if that stipulation is indeed correct he must be legitimately hurt. I was kinda joking, I just can’t believe he would ever admit what he did to the Rangers.

from Cots
2 years/$20M (2009-10), plus 2011 option
signed by Chicago Cubs as a free agent 1/6/09
$4M signing bonus
09:$5M, 10:$9M, 11:$12M option
2011 may become $12M club option with $2M buyout based on Bradley’s health
2011 option vests with 75 games played in 2009
Not a good contract at all.
Elvis Andrus - 2009 AL Rookie of the Year
so they can option out after 2 years
i’m sure they’ll enjoy the injury riddled 2 years.

wow, awesome play

that was a huge play
great catch.

Well...
Abreu was apparently stepping out of the box and Beckett still threw a pitch and gave him some chin music and the Angels took exception to it.

Of
course he’s going to fight through this because he finally got PAID, right?

HBP ?
That’s just some bad luck right there. Judging by the box score, it appears he was taken out after being hit by a pitch. That was his 3rd HBP of the season btw. In 6 games!!
UGH!
for some reason i read that as
Maybe he thinks he deserves an extention extinction
hmmmm
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

So....
Who had 4/12 in the “When will Milton Bradley first hurt himself” pool?
That's not hail you see in Frisco....that just Justin Smoak's Home Runs coming back into orbit....
funniest part was
he goes out and the guy who replaces him makes a game winning catch he never makes.
mormons stole me and held me against my will with Oklahoma beer and 12+ hour work days.
Does C.J. does any options remaining?

Don't know why it matters
he is scarcely the worst reliever in this bullpen.
Personally, I’d just make Jennings set up, and make Wilson a LOOGY, and be done with it.
"The idea that the Rangers are going to be a solid contender for a number of years is a fantasy." - Adam J. Morris
But you just made my argument
Wilson as a LOOGY wouldn’t get him enough work to regain his confidence. I’d rather send him down to take all the pressure off, and see if he can’t regain his mojo.

i don't think sending him down will give him confidence
he has been up the last 3 years, sending him down would be an insult, not a boost

It's reality
If you suck, you shouldn’t be insulted, you should be willing to do whatever it takes.

The reality is
CJ is good enough to be in the major league bullpen, but not good enough to be the setup guy. If we were swimming in better bullpen options, the bullpen wouldn’t look as bad as it does.

I agree
Unless his fastball returns, he doesn’t have the stuff.

Nah
It’s quite obvious that Wash just needs to check all the Ranger twitter feeds from the morning of the game and then make his bullpen decisions.
I mean, he could just ask EG if he’s too lazy to check himself.
