I believe it’s going to be an adaptation of the key issues surrounding Hank Blalock’s career, though.
Where do the Red Chinese fit in to Blowcocks career?

This is one we needed to win
With both the Angels and the Blood Sox losing, we needed to gain a game on each of them.
But we shit our pants instead.

yea i updated it today to a fresh version

It started out real nice when I switched to 3.5
It was faster and smoother than 3.0. Then the memory warnings and shit started, and I bailed fairly quickly. I’m an Opera guy for now.

I noticed that before I stopped using 3.5. Kind of an annoying feature.

You don't live in Houston
In Houston, where VY is from, and where the hometown team was holding the #1 pick, for about six months, I heard people on the radio ranting about how the Texans were going to pass on a future HOF QB to take a running back who couldn’t stay on the field.
And then, when the Texans took Mario Williams, people went absolutely insane.
I heard one sports talk host here claim that the question wasn’t whether VY would succeed in the NFL, but whether he’d be the Michael Jordan of the NFL, or just a HOF-caliber QB.
by Adam J. Morris on Aug 21, 2009 10:32 PM CDT up reply actions
There has never been a question in my mind he would fail.
In the NFL there is no such thing as a great running QB, there are QB’s that run but that is only an absolute last option.

His first game was great while Teagarden continues to struggle to do anything other than have one valuable plate appearance a game. As for his HR today, it was called one but I’m not sure he actually hit that one out.

Just saying.
HR or triple, that ball was smoked. He’s startin to hit for power if nothing else, and I would expect his .263 BABIP to come up to a more normal range with more playing time.
I still don’t think he’s ever going to be much of an offensive force, but I’d much rather see him play than a washed up Pudge.

Still, that washed up Pudge was able to slap the ball around a good bit in his first game here

Ditto--plus Tea should be better
Why is it that sample size doesn’t matter here, when others are ready to give up on him? Tea was a relatively high OPA and OPS guy in the minors—there’s nothing in his record that indicates he would be batting so low. I’d give him more PAs and see if his numbers trend upward
Tea is a .235 hitter at AA/AAA

I was going to correct myself---I fucked up that comment--ahem, let me try again
He did very well in the low minors, but, you’re right, his AAA numbers were poor last year. His AA numbers are a bit deceiving—because his had two short stretches, one in which he performed well, and a shorter one last year in which he was dreadful. In a perfect world, he should have a whole year in AAA this year to show conclusively what kind of hitter he is—which isn’t going to be great
For the next month
The future doesn’t mean nearly as much as doing what is best for the team now. If things were completely equal, yeah you play the younger guy who has more of a future. That’s not the case though and Teagarden still isn’t doing that great where you can’t bench him more than a couple of times a week.
And the pitches per plate appearance are practically meaningless. You’re talking about a difference of 2-3 pitches a game.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
"I am one of the biggest Texas Ranger fans out there but I'm also one of the smartest. Deal with it."

I blame JD and/or Nolan. Wash should not be a manager of a young team.
By now they know what Wash is going to do. They get him veteran players to be part-time players and mentors for the kids and instead he uses them as everyday players, out of place. I would like to see the percentage of teams whose two leading home runs hitters bat 1, 5, or 6. And the Julio Borbon thing is going to drive me crazy because he says he can’t take Blalock out because he went 3-4 but he is able to sit Borbon after he goes 6-8. Then pulls Borbon to pinch hit AJ but does not do the same when rolls are reversed. This team is young and going to get younger if he doesn’t want to play and teach young kids then he needs to get the fuck off of the field and see if someone else will hire him.
I'm tired of hearing about team chemistry. You are telling me these fuckers wouldn’t like to have a teammate that could actually help the team win, instead of being down 2-4 spots.
I agree with your overall premise
That’s something I’ve been saying for a long time.
But I still don’t see why PHing for Borbon that one time was such a stinking big deal. That’s supposedly what Jones’s role would be if he was used in more of a reserve role like you want.
J.P. can take Roy Halladay and shove him up his ass. I’ll take Derek Holland. - AJM
Rangers can no hit curve ball. Straight ball, they hit it very much. Curve ball, bats are inept.
Let me count the ways:
(1) Borbon is hot, in fact, he is the best hitter in MLB right now, so let it ride.
(2) AJ isn’t, currently 7-46 or some crap like that
(3) AJ is a poor pinch hitter 1of 7/8 or some crap like that
(4) AJ can’t or want run out ground balls/ which resulted in inning ending DP in this case
(5) Rangers have averaged over 6 per game in Borbon starts (he elevates the team because he causes pitcher to pitch differrently)
AJ can pinch hit for Teagarden, Blaylock, a pitcher not the #1 hitter in baseball.

Borbon is not the #1 hitter in baseball.
I suppose he might have the highest BABIP in baseball right now, but he’s not the #1 hitter in baseball. That’s just silly.
He’s a rook who had 1 PA against a lefty in the majors coming into that game, and hasn’t esxactly excelled against lefties in the minors. Because of the result you could probably call it overmanaging, but basically Wash played the percentages, went for the big XBH and lost. It happens.

And no he didn't play the %'s
The typical L-R split nets you 42 points in average but a pinch hitter is a 34 point loss on average but that is with both hitters being equal. In this case both hitters are not equals. That doesn’t even take into effect the factors listed above and the fact that Borbon has about a 50 point advantage against lefties over AJ, this year. That pinch hitting shit is old school baseball that has been shown to be wrong in most cases by the sabermetrician’s, unless the batter he is replacing is much worse.

Well...
that was a pretty depressing game to be at. To clear up some questions about the Teagarden HR…
Evidently it went over the catwalk which means it’s a home run. We didn’t see it hit the catwalk. And it clearly hit the wall on the way down. Upton did look a little silly trying to make that catch.
The attempt at a rally was fun… especially after how boring it was leading up to that.
Also, it was pretty frustrating to see so many players moved up to 3rd on shitty throws.
I hate that stupid catwalk
