A coup? Cool.

Can I be Secretary of the ban stick for a night?

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.

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.

by blueballlefty on Jun 19, 2009 9:08 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

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.

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."

As bad as Salty has been, I'd go after him and see if you can get Feldman to lead off the next half inning.

Get on base or die, Salty.

The pitching and hitting could be great and suck concurrently.

Then the Rangers would have a bunch of great winning streaks followed by horrible losing streaks.

No more hittable than last year, when he put up a 3.91 ERA, and he’s still striking out almost a batter an inning.

Is he as good as he used to be? No. But he doesn’t suck, either.

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."
