Home run in the 8th then the 9th.
We’d still have the lead. Why not….
I'm just goofin' new boot goofin'
I would bring him out for the 8th
and then let either Rupe or Madrigal get in for the 9th.
What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
Well....
So far he’s averaging 1.5 runs allowed per inning, so I guess that works for two more.

thank you!
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.
I'm ok with that
as long as he doesn’t give up a couple runs

Because Wash is overmanaging, trying to shut things down late in games to get us off to a good start.

We still have the 8th coming up… we have scored in our normal 2nd and 5th innings so statistically, the 8th will produce
luckily omar is the man

Thats just going to be bad no matter how you slice it.
But, his OBP was only 283. Everyone viewed his bat as completely dead. Maybe a Rudy Reclamation can make it passable.

are 7 Ks and 105 pitches.

Yeah, I'd write it off to wind if he didn't have a track record.
The Texas Rangers have been synonymous with explosive firepower ever since they emptied 130 rounds into Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow in 1934. - Alyssa Milano
it is a little ironic
that McCarthy will probably post numbers most similar to the ones Chris Young might have posted. Fairly high K rate, high walk rate, high F:G ratio, and low innings.
What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
He did get screwed on some of those walks though
But McCarthy needs to start pitching to contact a bit more if he wants to last past 5 innings.
And Young’s K rate was never that good here. If McCarthy Ks people like he has today, he’s going to have a K/9 a lot higher than Young’s ever was.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

Okay
Alfredo Simon started today for the Orioles.
I vagued remembered that he pitched in the Rangers system once. He spent the 2007 season starting in Oklahoma, posting a 6+ ERA, and was a Rule 5 pick prior to that season (but was returned to Texas).
And remember, Baltimore is one of the teams that is supposedly better than Texas this year.
But, but, but...
They have better pitching!

I think the Orioles are about as good as Texas, maybe a tad worse.
But I really will seriously bet against them having better pitching.
They'll be a force for a few years if everything goes right.
They’ve got young, controllable players, with a good pitching rotation slated to come up, with good reliever prospects. Good combination. They also get to pick 5th this year, and probably around that slot again next year.
He's supposedly a placeholder...
Similar to our Kris Benson. With Tillman, Arrieta, Matusz, Patton, Bergesen, David Hernandez, and Radhames Liz all slated to be at least in the upper minors at some point this year, there’s no way he lasts through mid-May.
Heh
Good point.

I asked you this before and I will ask it right now,
what other manager would have done a better job with the pitching staff we had last year?
"I can wake up out of the bed and play outfield. It's easy." --MOB
One who didn't put Jamey Wright in situations he didn't belong in maybe?
Or one who knew when to pull Scott Feldman after the 6th inning?
Perhaps one who didn’t leave Robinson Tejeda in to give up a billion runs in Oakland.

So
you think the Rangers could have had a better record last year with the same roster?
"I can wake up out of the bed and play outfield. It's easy." --MOB
Slightly better, yes.
The bad pitching was definitely accentuated by mismanagement, IMO.
Hello Win Column - no two-tone helmets have been included in our redesign.
by LSJ on Apr 9, 2009 3:58 PM CDT up reply actions
So that why
you get your panties in a bunch becasue the Rangers would have been “slightly better”(I strongly disagree with this, btw) if we had a different manager?
Trying to criticize everything Washington does is not cute, its annoying. We already know, he is not going to be a great with the lineup or bullpen management but he is a good manager of people which is essential the most important thing about being a major league manger.
"I can wake up out of the bed and play outfield. It's easy." --MOB
Well, I disagree with the last part
I don’t think Washington’s managerial capabilities are major league-quality, and I don’t think his people skills make up for that. If he’s good with the players, make him the fucking bench coach or something, but don’t let him mismanage a young team in a developmental stage.

Three games. But it seems like he isn’t seeing the ball very well.

It’s 3 games…. He’s a fairly steady hand and I fully expect he’ll return to form within the next 5-10 games

Will probably not start tomorrow. I’m going to go out on a limb here.
