Rangers can no hit curve ball. Straight ball, they hit it very much. Curve ball, bats are inept.
i know, i was stuck there too
it was frustrating

Can't complain about the results from Scott
Threw too many pitches, but 5 innings of one run ball is good for me. Bring on the Neftali!
Well put from ESPN.com's Rumblings:
Blockquoted paragraph
Padilla
• Beware the Padilla: Meanwhile, it’s funny how you’re not hearing the same glowing reviews on Vicente Padilla, another talented arm who is almost certain to become a free agent once the Rangers determine once and for all that they can’t deal him. But for a guy whose stuff is still good, it’s astounding how terrified teams seem to be by the rest of Padilla’s loose-cannon act.
“Here’s a team [Texas] that needs pitching, and they let a guy like that go?” said one NL executive. “What’s that tell you?”
“They’re tied in the wild card, and nobody has enough pitching, and they owe the guy money, and they still didn’t want him around?” wondered another NL exec. “It just makes you wonder: How bad was it?”
He'll never get another guaranteed deal.
He’s toxic now.
"Back on the scene, with a gangsta lean" RW
"you gonna lose your horse. seriously." FX2
And the little bastard threw it for a swinging strike three in a 3-2 count. He’s blessed. And ballsy.
Now?
He was about as Toxic when we signed him. None of the things Padilla is doing are new, and there are reasons Phillie and Arizona was happy to dump him despite his arm. I was surprised we signed him long term. He is one of those guys who should always be on a one year contract.

In Defense
Arizona did get Curt Schilling in his prime for Padilla, etc.

And that's a great thing.

I've decided I'd rather listen to my 5 year old nephew do play by play
than Dave Barnett … and I’d have a better idea of what’s happening

I'd give him a break if he was doing AA games
not a big league team when the greatness of Nadel is sitting right next to him
I do too
and it’s not that Victor was so amazing, it’s just that he was competent and compared to Barnett, he was the Michael Jordan of radio broadcasting
I argue that Nadel and Victor had built a good rapport

exactly
they were great together and I don’t mean to slight Rojas, but Barnett makes his legacy that much better.
Barnett has shown improvement.
He’s not all there yet, but he’s a whole lot better than what he was. Give him at least ’til next season and if home-run calls are still floundering, then yes, give him the axe

Stop caring about the color of your glove and focus on your pitching.
I'll take the hits for now. The power will come along.
If he keeps hitting at this clip, I could care less if he hits another one out of the park.
well it would be better to keep feliz to one inning
so that he can pitch tomorrow if needed.
the preceding post was a great success.
he hasn't pitched since last friday
he needs to get into a game.
the preceding post was a great success.
well who knows if there will even be a situation for him to pitch tomorrow
but i think 1 inning today, 1 inning tomorrow, and an inning on sunday is possible if we really need it. the chances are that friday and sunday won’t BOTH need him.

Andrus/German look good out there in the infield.
Of course, Kinsler is still the better bat, but it’s not like we’re throwing a crappy player out there until he returns.
Lightyears ahead of Arias, that’s for sure.

I sure would like to see this team get to play-offs
I think they would be very dangerous, like TB last year.
I think their offense would be shut down

Hamilton isn't actually on the field.
He’s ministering in the stands.
Gracchus (about Obama): I think he knows what America is. America is the mob. Conjure money for them and they'll be distracted. Take away their freedom and still they'll roar. The beating heart of America is not the paper of the Constitution, it's the power of the media. He'll bring them debt - and they will love him for it.

Josh expressing the most overrated idea in baseball
that somehow a catcher “handles” a pitching staff. Notice the Munson quote he used—Munson became good at handling the Yankees’ staff when they got good pitchers in the mid-1970s.
hahaha
this is just not fair

no team in baseball
picked up a better reliever at the deadline than we did with Feliz. And no team picked up a better starter than what Holland can do when he’s on (assuming Peavy stays injured).
What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
bats is stiffer competition
because of Holliday and VMart, but when Josh is locked in, as it appears he is now, then that would definitely qualify. Kinsler just worries me, because he is so streaky. He has to make sure he’s not swinging from his heals too much.

im sure someone has more than 13, but it’d be cool to know how many.

20? and 13 have come on Ks?
65%…that seems sustainable.

its someone who dazzled in his first year as a Ranger and disappointed as with a sophomore slump.

he’d have to be number 1 next year if he keeps this up, no?
