As soon as he swings
all the infielders cringe and take a step back. Its hard to start moving forward again. Especially when they are fighting the wind creating by the swing.

He probably is.
He tied with Milton for the WAR lead with 4.5 last year. If he was healthy he would have had one of the best Rangers seasons ever (Hamilton had a 4.1, btw).
Off topic: Kenny Lofton, at 2.6, was our WAR leader in 2007. What?

By that logic
fielding errors by the pitcher should be earned, too.
by NorCalRangersFan on Apr 6, 2009 3:40 PM CDT up reply actions
Errors by the pitcher are the same as any other error.
Passed balls are also considered errors (from the earned run perspective).
by NorCalRangersFan on Apr 6, 2009 3:43 PM CDT up reply actions
Why the hell wouldn't that be?
Doesn’t the pitcher throw the wild pitch? Then it’s an earned run.

If I had to guess
I’d say that (a) it’s the pitcher’s fault; (b) unlike an error, the ball is not in play; and © it’s a pitching error (like a balk) and not a fielding error…IIRC balks count toward ER’s

You should be
taken out back and smacked around for posting that talentless twit in here. She will ruin the mojo.
8 Run Save
So, is the smart thing to pitch your setup and closer in the 8/9 innings on opening day so you get them in the game, get them and the team the feel of things for typical games, and to lock up that first important win, etc.
Or should you hold them out for tomorrow and future games that are likely to be more competitive.
I’m not sure what the answer is, and I’m not certainly complaining. I’m happy with the way it turned out, and I do think giving up 5 runs in the 8/9 would have put a damper on things.
I’m just crious what the “right” answer is, if there even remotely is one.
They didn't throw a lot of pitches
So I doubt it matters. Just showing off for the opening day crowd.

If Millwood

10 beers, and a win later
and this season looks good. andrus will have his stuggles, and the SP won’t be this good all year long… but for now… its a good day to be a ranger fan.
