yea, id like to see wash just alternate them between which inning is likely to have more lefties

we had the entire two sections. There were about three or four rows in the very front that waved but most of the section just ignored it. Thing of beauty.

No fisticuffs or stalking...

More importantly, Knox didn’t get stalked. I’m disappointed.

I'm sure you guys have already discussed this at some point, but...
what’s the deal with the condition of the field? Have the cash cutbacks affected the way the grounds-crew can maintain the grass? I know it’s been a hot dry summer, at least until last week, but that’s the case every summer.
Ephesians 3:20-21...and I can only imagine
Someone asked JD about it
Something about them putting in some new grass that didn’t take and they are re-doing it. Not really sure as I know nothing about that stuff.

JD said the grass in the infield didn’t take, so they’ve just put in some new grass in the infield. And, something about the outfield grass having an odd rate of growth…or something.
I didn’t get a sense it was a cash issue…
Who gets in a game first?
Arias or Feliz?

I think Wash believe he needs a 3-4 day acclamation period. So I say Arias.

Not that Arias will neccessarily start, but he will come in to replace Omar at some point in the next couple of days. So it might come down to which inning the replacement happens – will Feliz get in the game in an earlier inning.

Didn't know he was asking for a starter
Think he just meant the next pitcher called up. The Rangers still have Holland, Feldman, Nippert, Padilla, and Hunter for the rotation, so not sure why they would need a 6th starter to replace Milly at this point.
by Mark from OC on Aug 2, 2009 11:16 PM CDT up reply actions
Nippert starts tomorrow,
and i believe Milly is slated for Thursday or Friday. Considering Nippert’s workload in the last 8 days, I don’t think he could be ready again on 4 days rest.I guess Do-Math could get a spot start.

Oh I gladly disagree there.
We have Do-Math as well as some kid who throws 103… What’s his name… I know it’s probably not the best thing to start Feliz as a long reliever, but he did a great job at OKC starting.
I would also take the Mad-dawg over JJ. Everyone may not like him as much, but damn JJ is in my shit house.
Do-MAthe is a lefty,
and are you really ready ti trust a rookie, with questionable command of his secondary ptiches, be a RH long reliever?

Mathis is a righty.
And if we need a long reliever, it’s 9 times out of 10 because the starter got rocked. Which means we’ll probably be down and just need someone to stop the bleeding. That’s a lower pressure situation as there ever was one. Already down 5-8 runs, that would be the best time to put him in.
When would you want to put Feliz in?
I see your point,
and I corrected myself above. I’m actually hoping Nippert goes 4-5 tomorrow night, and Feliz takes it thru the 7th, regardless of the game situation.

but I unless they offer him a ML contract, I think he’d take an NRI from us.
It’s been kinda forgotten but he’s the longest tenured Ranger pitcher.
Let’s see… What do Mathis, Holland, Hunter, Benoit, CJ, and Hurley have in common?

They were all drafted/signed by John Hart?

Well i was going to say they were all drafted, signed and brought thru the Rangers farm system,
but that seemed a little obvious.

Got asked tonight.
JD confirmed he will be a FA after this season.

He's a FA
and there’s way too many internal options that are cheaper and better. So he wont be back here.

That is sad though.
He gave us alot of good season’s to have his career end that way.

He was a org. solider
and I won’t ever forget his 2007 season of utter domination. But he was essentially 3.5M of dead weight.
It was good while it lasted and sucks that it had to end this way, but its time to move on.

I could see them offering him a NRI to ST next year
I could live with this.

I don't think much would come of it
but I definitely wouldn’t mind. He deserves a shot if he wants it.

Longest-tenured farm-raised Ranger pitcher.
back in 07, he was the ONLY farm-raised pitcher we had on the roster, I think. I’d love to see him back.

I just checked out Feliz's OKC stats.
The guy pitched 77 innings, has 75 K’s and has only given up 2 HR’s. Usually guys who throw that damn hard give up longballs. 2!!! I cannot wait to watch this kid pitch!!!
He's only given up
7 his entire. fucking. career.
