21 I think...

since Murph’s RBI single in the 3rd last night.

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."

And just sort of fast forward through last night’s game when I got home. It seemed to me that the counts were generally deeper than they have been lately. What was it like to actually watch it?

Yeah I did watch that AB in its entirety.

I sort of agreed with Grieve, but for fuck’s sake he’s a pitcher. Working the count full for an AL pitcher is like hitting a grand slam for a position player.

multiple 2nd round picks can be turned into a late 1st rounder

or an early second rounder which is probably more valuable because you may get a guy with 1st round talent without having to give a guaranteed contract.

Also they are always traded which means the Mavs may have something up their sleeve on that front

if that happens

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."

pieces of shit

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."

And ball four for a pop up.

by Redcaps on Jun 25, 2009 9:48 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
