"Elvis Andrus has just performed a miracle." -Eric Nadel
New lineup
I love it!
1. Ian Kinsler, 2B
2. Elvis Andrus, SS
3. Michael Young, 3B
4. Andruw Jones, LF
5. Nelson Cruz, RF
6. Hank Blalock, 1B
7. Marlon Byrd, CF
8. Jarrod Saltalamacchia, C
9. Scott Feldman, P
Least elvis moved up in the lineup.
Hopefully he continues to take pitches.
I'm just goofin' new boot goofin'
Feldman puts it in the cove tonight in his 1st AB.
The juices will be flowing in front of the hometown crowd.

Frakking National League and their retarded rules.
Although, Davis being forced out of the lineup for a night might be a good thing, at this point.

Should be Jones at 1st and Boggs in LF.

Boggs should be in CF instead of Byrd
Byrd has a 647 OPS against lefties this year.
And he also just kind of all around sucks.

I'm not in 100% agreement with the line-up
(would like to still see Boggs) but at least it is an acknowledgement that an adjustment was needed. Blalock to 6th is fine with me tonight.
Give me Feldmania!!

Ron Washington...giving hope everywhere to the kids who eat lead paint chips of being a big league manager when they grow up since 2007.
i mean andro, my bad
Manager Ron Washington said the Rangers are still to feel not having Josh Hamilton in the lineup. With Michael Young and Ian Kinsler both hitting again, the Rangers are going to use the combo of Elvis Andrus and David Murphy in the No. 2 spot until Hamilton returns. Andrus is batting second tonight.
Well, they're only one spot away from where they should be now

The only way Scott Feldman will be involved in hitting a three-run double is if he throws himself up to home plate and goes cartwheeeling down the right field line.
Sorry, but I hate seeing pitchers hit.
Of course, we probably might not really notice since we’re used to having Davis in the lineup.
Get on base or die, Salty.

Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."

come on team
let’s win this!
Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan was on the same pitching staff with Danny Darwin during the 1986 through 1988 seasons. Both were described by Milo Hamilton as "tall, tough Texans." It was a source of debate amongst Astros players and fans over who would win in a fight, Ryan or Darwin. Though Astros pitcher Bob Knepper attempted to set up a fight between the two during spring training in 1988, manager Hal Lanier stopped it before it could commence. Many experts, including Astros shortstop Rafael Ramirez, felt that Darwin would win because he "looked like someone no man would want to mess with."
anyone got a link for the game?

I'm not saying he's bad.
I’m saying he’s a work in progress as a right fielder. He misplays balls too frequently.
The defensive metrics show that he has great range, and no one’s denying that.
That
was actually a pretty good play off the wall by Nelly, but the stupid camera made me think it was out.

Wrong.
If that’s your play, then you’re conceding the hit and the advanced runner.
really
so pitchers never field bunts? Feldman couldn’t get off the mound and throw Randy Johnson out at first? That is ridiculous to say.

seriously
unless you are crashing both corners and giving up 2nd base by having your middle infielders cover 1st and 3rd, the pitcher is always responsible for one of the lines. You teach that in fucking little league

Jesus Tap Dancing Christ.
There was no runner on first, so no need to cover second. The runner on second would be advancing to third. You can’t count on a pitcher that falls off the mound to the left to change directions, field a bunt up the 3rd base line, change directions again, and hope to get an out there. Elvis should have been moving to cover third. You teach that in fucking little league—unless you want to concede hits on sac bunts.
exactly my point
Feldman has the 3rd base line, 1B charges. Kinsler covers first. Elvis covers 2nd. Plus, again, I don’t think Randy Johnson would have been busting it down the line. If you really don’t know that, they have idiot’s guide to baseball at half price books…

MY's first resonsibility was to cover 3B
once the ball is actually bunted he can then charge and field the ball
Elvis Andrus - 2009 AL Rookie of the Year
Mitch Moreland - 2009 Rangers Minor League POY
not necessarily
if feldman is covering 1b line
and FOTF is covering 3b line
its elvis who should be at 3b
