Do you think we can safely say that morale plays a part on a winning team?
Not saying Padilla is totally to credit for this barage, but it feels good doesn’t it? Makes the playoffs seem reasonable?

It's not a knee jerk. Just look at the guys and the way they are acting.
It’s kind of like a clouds been lifted a bit. At least it’s a start. It has to start somewhere.
It's Joe Saunders

Omar and Elvis yuckin it up after the DP
Josh getting the HR monkey off his back
They just look more comfortable. So both.
well
it is easy to be happy after you are winning. and it is easy to be winning if you are facing batting practice. and of course defense has never been a problem.
so, no you’re wrong.
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
They are taking pitches and being more comfortable at the plate
That in turn is showing up with better pitches.
Hambone swings at that first pitch before his homer he may be down 0-1. Instead he laid off and hit the 1-0 pitch out of the yard.
There is no fucking way Padilla has anything to do with this.
by Black Francis on Aug 7, 2009 10:16 PM CDT up reply actions
It has something to do with it. Not all
It’s like the big idiot elephant is out of the room and everyone can relax. Plus it gives the team something to rally around.
Hopefully (and I'm sure you'll agree) we'll be talking about this
after we tear through the Angels and we’ll both feel better about it.
taking pitches?
you are saying the rangers are taking pitches because of padilla? are you really that dense?
and they’re not really doing that all that much.
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
dense is the wrong word
but I was trying to be nice.
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
Not doing it all that much??? Have you seen how many 3-0 counts we've had?
Give me a break. I’m saying they aren’t thinking about how much sucktitude they’ve been lately and are playing baseball. Padilla gave a nice little distraction away from their sucking balls with their bats.
It's easy to grin when your ship comes in and you've got the stock market beat.
But the man worthwhile is the man who can smile when his shorts are too tight in the seat.

Wish this offense could do it when not facing Saunders and co….
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
The taking pitches has nothing to do with Saunders
Saunders is responsible for converting the patience to walks, but this patience seems to be on purpose.
Hope it lasts.

If its off topic it at least has to be good.

I'm glad Teabag's ABs are good tonight,
because he might be the most overrated defensive catcher I’ve ever seen. How the fuck did he get so bad?
LOL Hank.

Rangers can no hit curve ball. Straight ball, they hit it very much. Curve ball, bats are inept.
his inability to take that walk speaks volumes

Ha.
Having watched this whole game it feels headed that way.
Paul O’Neill just said it looks like a Little League WS game where the pitchers are just too good for the batters.
The Yankees sweeping this series would be best for us.
This has been a great battle of a game. Yankees win this and I think they sweep the series.
not at all you mean?

Baseball isn't all about numbers
It’s about fucking around and having fun and relaxing so you can have your natural abilities come out. See Nellie fucking around in the club house? That’s good stuff. It’s nice and easy living and that makes for better baseball.
people are prone to fucking around when they are winning

I agree. But even big leaguers get messed up in the head sometimes.
Ankiel, Williams, Sax, Wholers, Knoblach. Josey had a whole list up today.

you really think that list is relevant? Or were you just trying to work in a josey reference for credibility?

I respect your opinion
with a name like “Too Legit To quit” you must really know what lame is.
BTW, why is “quit” the only word you didn’t capitalize?
same reason you didn't capitalize the c but you did the 2 and 9
Ok that was dumb. Was funny when I first thought of it.

Ari is what keeps the show alive.

Over and over again between radio & tv
both sets of announcers have been telling the fans what a bad guy Padilla was.
"Dying ain't hard. It's living that's hard."
"Ranger players, especially veterans, weren’t surprised that Daniels couldn’t find a deal"
Kind of like what happened after the Manny Ramirez trade.
The entire Boston media kept saying what a bad guy he was.

It would appear the media around the team have
been given their orders.
"Dying ain't hard. It's living that's hard."
"Ranger players, especially veterans, weren’t surprised that Daniels couldn’t find a deal"
They are probably just echoing what management and the clubhouse say.
In either case, the player isn’t really capable of defending himself.

Okay
Someone tell me what happened with Grieve saying “I don’t give a shit” on the air, since I haven’t been listening.
They came back from a break and you heard tom say "I don't give a shit" and then he said sorry 2 innings later.
I'm just goofin' new boot goofin'
He said it right as the Rangers came back on and he didn't know they were back on air
he apologized the following half inning. and clarified he did not say it to Lewin
He didnt hear "Were back" in time
" I have no faith in the GM making a move to help the big club but I’m on board."
Josey Wales on the 2009 Rangers. A team with 18 active players acquired by the current GM.
The broadcast came back early and his mic was live.
He said, apologized, and then clarified that he was speaking to Lewin.
