But it said comments closed before the game was over on gameday.
Stupid slow gameday
Yes...I think so...and who the hell is talking about trading anyone????? Read much?

What the hell are you blabbing about? scoop16's post wasn't a trade proposal.
He was implying that Holland could be as good as Lester next year

Blabbing about Mark from OC's comment
“I wouldn’t make that trade”
When I see a solar eclipse I think "oh no, is the moon eating the sun?"
I was thinking this...
watching the game. Their velocity is similar. Lester just knows how to pitch a little better, has a little more experience, and better control/use of his off speed stuff.
I think Lester would be a very good comp for Holland if he turns out to be what most of us think/hope he can be.

used Lester as an upside comp for Holland in his scouting report over on BBTIA last winter.

And Lester Has a More Experienced
Catcher, thats one of the biggest problems we have on this team, i think rather than 2 very young catchers we should have brought in a vet (at least to mentor the younger catcher (Salty or Tea) I guess Pudge was available since he went to Astros, though he is probably not a good teaching type
Larry Parrish Was Da Man!
Meh...
I don’t think the catching has much to do with it. Salty has improved greatly from last year and I have faith in him now defensively and calling a game. TT has always been seen as a good catcher and someone who works well with pitchers and calls a good game too.
As far as Pudge goes the last thing he wants to do is be a backup while mentoring and teaching a young catcher. He wants to be the starting catcher and play everyday. That simply wasn’t going to happen in Arlington.
"The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance."-Socrates
Hire
Brad Ausmus as a coach.
Our catching is fine. Teagarden looks like he is an ideal backup catcher, and maybe Salty will get his bat going.

*ahem* Los Angeles.
If Dutch had gotten out of the 5th this game would have been a lot better. Oh well.
I’m not feeling too good about tomorrows matchup unfortunately, but if they can pull it out its certainly a decent roadtrip.
the preceding post was a great success.
That is the drawback
to working him in through the bullpan, you pretty much have to get used to short starts.

Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.

This game is a lot closer if he comes in instead of Benson.

No.
He’s here to fill out the garbage time. Someone has to do that. Better to be doing that with some washed out journeyman than a young prospect.
Because the good outweighs the bad
The good being he allows a young arm time to develop and get more or consistent innings in AAA instead of coming up and throwing 8 innings in a months time.
The bad is when he is brought in the game is pretty much toast. So you only use him in blowouts and you don’t worry about what his stats are.
He keeps you from using multiple guys multiple innings in blowouts saving them for closer games.
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
but going forward
I think the 13th pitcher on the roster is going to be getting much more than 1 appearance per week. I would rather that person be Mathis.

You know it amazes me how down people are getting on Holland already
He was pretty good until the 5th. Overall, I’m encouraged with his results.
I really don’t know what people want from a 22 y/o making his third major league start after being abused by his manager out of the bullpen in midweek.

I'm not down on him
I just don’t know that I want to see him jump between starting and the bullpen

That's why I was rooting for Padilla to be claimed, myself
He needs to be starting right now if he’s going to take the next step in his development. Leaving him in the bullpen where Ron can keep bringing him into shitty situations is doing nothing for him.

"He (Padilla) shouldve gone back to Venezuela and watched on his Direct TV waiting to find out who his new team would be!!. ." - crops.mlblogs.com
True with putting him in bad situations
But I think Holland should be used out of the bullpen as originally planned. Have him only start innings though, no coming in with 2 on and no outs. There are plenty of pitchers on the roster now to develop Holland this way.
Only problem is, Wash refuses to use him that way
And I don’t trust him to change now. At this point I think I might rather see him starting in OKC than be at Ron’s mercy in the ’pen.

by LSJ on Jun 6, 2009 8:54 PM CDT up reply actions
Then JD, Nolan, or someone needs to sit down with Ron
And discuss what would be best for both the Rangers in 2009 and for Holland’s development. Both are important.
Honestly
I wouldn’t mind him getting sent down to OKC and get regular starts there. It seems as though his confidence might have taken a bit of a hit the way things have gone for him the past few weeks.
He can dominate down there and get that confidence back up.
Well, demoting him might impact his confidence too
But yeah. I don’t think a couple months of honing his breaking pitches on AAA hitters and getting back into a rythym as a starter could possibly hurt him in the long run.

I agree. It looks like to me that in the 5th inning he needed a slightly different look.
That changeup that Bay hit for a single wasn’t a good enough “slightly different look”. But, he won’t be able to work on it coming out of the pen. It seems like sending him back to the pen might slow his development for next year, the year the Rangers are really supposed to be contenders.

I could care less
whether knee-jerk assholes on LSB “hang with him”. He’s clearly a talented young guy who has a great chance of succeeding. To me, he’s already better than a guy like Harrison because he has shown a capability to miss bats. Holland just needs to learn how to hone his craft.
"A good start would be not giving up 900 runs again." -Jon Daniels
by Randy Richardson on Jun 6, 2009 8:52 PM CDT up reply actions
The question is, should he be learning in the majors?
At this point, the Rangers have a legitimate playoffs shot. Do you use a starting position on the team for him to learn to hone his craft, or does he learn to hone his craft in AAA or out of the bullpen? I think it can be done out of the bullpen without hurting the Rangers’ season.
I think he's holding his own in the
majors. It’s not like he’s flat out sucking. Tonight he alternated between dominating and making mistakes. A lefty who can strikeout Pedroia, Youkilis(twice), and Bay is doing something right.
I don’t have the answer for whether he should be in the rotation or the bullpen. I imagine he’ll go to the bullpen when Harrison returns, but will be called on the next time a starter misses a start or goes on the DL.

First off, junkball crap implies that's he's throwing Jamie Moyer type shit.
He went on the DL for a month for arm fatigue and as a result only has 5 starts under his belt. His FB velo was 88-89 in his two horrific starts before his time off and it’s been better since he’s returned (same story for his secondary stuff).

Their fully rested and very good bullpen makes daisuke’s short outings irrelevant and I’m pretty sure padilla will suck. It will be a great win if we pull it out though.

I'd say at least on par
with Grienke’s outing as the best stuff the Rangers have seen this year. A legit 2 hitter, even though we weren’t patient it wouldn’t have mattered as we would’ve been down in the count either way. Tip of the cap.
"I saw your act, just didn't make it for me. Just a lot of fluff."
Best fucking stuff i've seen all year,his fastball was sitting 96-98 most of the night
He then just fooled every one of our hitters with really good off-speed pitches. I don’t think anybody could top that kind of performance.
