I was starting to wonder if there'd be another...

I’m guessing not much exuberance for this week’s episode.

agreed Adam...

I find it quite ironic all these scrubs come out and pitch the game of their lives ONLY against the Rangers. Ridiculous!

fyi….Fire Rudy!

They don't need to fire him

His contract is up.

The 2009 Texas Rangers offense: sigh...

And with their finances being what they are

they have the perfect excuse not to re-sign him and get a new voice here. I have no illusions that replacing Jaramillo would suddenly turn a bunch of hackers into walk machines, but like Maddux, a new hitting coach might connect with the players differently and gel with Washington’s philosophy better.

Holy shit, Adam.

That Slingblade reference just killed me.

by jwiscarson on Sep 18, 2009 11:31 AM CDT reply actions  

Yeah

that segment beginning with the Jeff Gillooly reference was fun.

it does put Millwood in the light he deserves

I think Ted should change the name to

Rangers Rantcast in Arlington. Adam, do you drink wine during these recordings and then let loose your rants after a couple of glasses?

love the cynicism, and the venting. I hate Gutierrez as well. What about Adam Kennedy and Rajai Davis?? I hate them even more right now.

Color me jaded

But not imported from China. Franklin G is one of those guys who actually is so much better than he was thought to be, if he isn’t on your side of course you’d hate him. See Jeff Sullivan’s analysis of Guti’s rather quizzical career progression. Hell, I’d rather he were our center fielder and there were no equivocations about Byrd’s role, Hamilton’s health, or Borbon’s defensive acument or arm. LF is a speed field, Julio can handle it and lead off, ’nuff said.

I guess I respect special ability when it pops up, even against us. Guti is in no way a Kennedy (who is actually pretty good), Rajai Davis, type case.

I'm hitting the road this weekend....

Is this podcast, which I’m going to listen to in the call, going to make me depressed about our team that slowly I turn the steering wheel onto ongoing traffic or what….

I lost it

when Adam read the Tomko headline haha

Best podcast ever

At least for comedy value. You were on fire at the end Adam. Loved the answer for player of the week.

by rodinuk on Sep 18, 2009 1:48 PM CDT reply actions  

man that borbon discussion

got pretty intense. i’m with adam that he should probably be our CF next year. he may not be ready to be an excellent defensive outfielder, but i have a hard time imagining he wont at least be competent and get better throughout the year. im just not sure what better option we have, and there are definitely no better options that will be making 400k next year.

Gilloolycast

will loom large in the LSB legend.

by jcAustin on Sep 18, 2009 2:58 PM CDT reply actions  

Great final 10 minutes...

of AJM ranting and bitching. Loved the “they all sucked” line. That should be the new tagline for LSB ’til the season is over.

Although I was hearing crickets after the Simpons analogy.

Wow

I’m so impressed, so much great information. NOT

by Big Tex on Sep 18, 2009 7:50 PM CDT reply actions  

Good stuff, and finally somebody like Adam says that

yes, Chris Davis has been a disaster this entire year.

Wasn’t that easy?

1B has been one of our biggest problems this entire season and is a huge question mark heading into 2010.
