Davis hitting 8th tonight.
Training wheels are still on.

Wasn't Blalock hitting 7th before he was benched?
Does one spot take the training wheels off?

Keep the focus on Davis. That's like bleeding heart liberals still bitching about Dubya.
It’s up to Davis to show the rest of the team he can play at this level because he was given this job. It’s now time to earn his keep with production in The Show and the training wheels should be off by this point. Good AL 1B don’t hit 8th.
There’s a crappy, mediocre LH pitcher being rolled out tonight. Let’s see what he can do.

4 for 12 with a squibber and a nice 3 run bomb.

Add in a walk and much better plate presence
and id say the early returns are positive. Focus less on where in the order he hits and focus more on how he is doing

Do you think he looks significantly improved so far?
I do, fwiw.

Yes.
His presence at the plate has been good, he doesn’t look completely lost.

by tyd3311 on Aug 28, 2009 6:29 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Not exactly what I said there, fwiw.
Simply said that he sucked earlier in the year and that I didn’t want him back up.
Didn’t say he couldn’t or wouldn’t be improved.
by Texas_Dawg on Aug 28, 2009 6:38 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
So if you thought he could be improved....
… why were you so adamantly against his playing for the Rangers again this year? When he could help us to a postseason birth.
by tyd3311 on Aug 28, 2009 6:51 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Because it isn't a sure thing...
…and the possibility exists that he could be as bad as he was in the first half of the year.
Really though, I just found it funny how much many here bashing Blalock had forgotten how horrendous Davis was for half a season.

No Blalock was batting 7'th not hitting 7'th.
"We have a better chance to win with other guys in the lineup," said Blalock, who is hitting .190 the past 30 games. "That’s something I’ve got to deal with."

It is a game where everyone is a loser quite often
As a batter, you get out a large majority of the time
As a pitcher, you give up at least 3 runs a large majority of the time
If you are one of the best teams in baseball history, you will still lose over 50 times in a year

I read a biography about him and it's actually the other way around...
He could have stayed President but resigned…when this happened, King George III referred to Washington as the greatest man in the world (not to be confused with the most interesting man alive). Washington’s humility and desire to not establish a monarch is why he resigned…he also just wanted to get back to private life…
