Dear God,

Please end this shitty baseball day with a 12-3 pounding of Toronto. Thanks.

The Rangers shake off the injuries with a 9-3 victory.

Kinsler raises his ops 20 points.

Of course then the injuries stare them in the face with a Dough Mathis start tomorrow. I am not encouraged when I checked his minor league numbers, .290 baa even in his 2.9 era good AAA start?

the preceding post was a great success.

as rotation… meh. Harrison HAS to return to his solo domination form from a few weeks ago and stave off having on-again-off-again starts.

If Benson pitches it'd better be 11-2 somebody...

My knees and elbows are a little scraped up.

I was driving this bandwagon that had the word “McCarthy” painted on the side.

All of a sudden, one of the wheels flew off, and I was launched from the driver’s seat, onto a pile of broken glass and buffalo manure. True story!

anyone interested in streaming the live video feed from the DFW area? The Rangers are one of the few teams that do not have anyone regularly streaming video for this site.

You can google tvants + Mac for directions.

I think it’s a bit complicated though. I think Black Francis is also a Mac guy, perhaps he could offer advice.

I think Salty has become worse to watch than Davis

cause at least Davis might hit a homer. Salty gets my hopes up with 10 pitch ABs where he finally just strikes out.

So I searched the comments here and found out a little, but seriously, who is this guy and where did he come from? Why doesn’t he get near the talk others do (i.e. Main and Beavan)? Everyone (and by that I mean the few people on LSB who have commented) say he throws around 90 with a great curve, but can that really be it? The guys’ number are insane.

McCarthy Question

So… what does a stress fracture entail, exactly? I mean… is it possible he’s really only going to miss those 15 days, or three starts? Considering his history, can we even begin to hope he’ll be back to the point he was a couple weeks ago for the rest of this year?

This news bummed me out and ruined my good Ranger buzz I had going, even with Josh going on the extended DL, I felt like this boat was headed in the right direction. But with this, I feel like the two bad pieces of injury news, Wash’s extension – bad mojo is starting to pile up.

Maybe the boys can assuage my unfounded fears and beat up on them Jays. Or, what do y’all think? I’m I paranoid or are the signs there? Is this thing about to fall apart?

College

I have a B.A. and an M.A. in history. I make about $32K a year.

One of my brothers has an associate’s degree in criminal justice, and makes right around $40K as a police officer for Tarrant County College. He does have a wife and three kids to support, though.

My other brother has an associate’s degree in biology, and just finished a two-year program to become a histology tech. About a week before he graduated, he got hired to work in the pathology lab at the hospital at Fort Hood, for about $50K a year.

That said, I wouldn’t trade my degrees for anything.

What do we do now?

Three questions:
1. Burbon is lighting it up in AAA – Do we bring him up to play the rest of the year in CF and move Josh to LF/DH when he is healthy? I say yes and move Hank for a bullpen arm. Then use a platoon in LF/RF/DH of Hamilton/Murph/Cruz/Byrd and Jones.
2. Do you bring Feliz up to start or fill Holland’s role in the pen? Glavin? Oswalt? Bedard?
3. Will Benson’s sorry a$$ stick around now with the injury to B-Mac? It seems they would want to get rid of him for the same reason the didn’t want VP out there. He looks like he doesn’t want to be out there and that can’t be good for the team.

1: I wouldn’t mind seeing Borbon come up and send Boggs down. Borbon can be the primary CF with Byrd and Murphy platooning in LF. Byrd can play some CF if you want to sit Borbon one day
2: No
3: Benson will be here until Nippert comes back from the DL. Why people are so eager to get rid of a guy who pitched 8 innings last month baffles me.
