AJM is throwing in the towel
Hank is 7 runs below a zombie replacement at first base. Do you realize how terrible that is? Zombie’s can’t think, they’re slow, and they’re often ejected from the game for eating opposing baserunners’ brains. - Ben quantifies Hank Blalock

ok. you just said this cause of the two plays just now.
go pick your nose and feed it to your lizard. Then put a pan on your head and run around the house claiming there is a booger dinosaur after you. Then drop a book on the lizard and beat your chest shouting “VICTORY” only to find out the lizard got away and crawled up your short shorts, and bit your left nut.

No, I didn’t. I mentioned this a couple night ago as well. Pudge is a fucking old man, at least in baseball years. I don’t give a shit if he’s a Ranger legend, he sucks now. Deal.

@robneyer Pudge was just charged with Passed Balls on consecutive pitches … Equaling his totals for all of 2000, and 2001.

There had to be some miscommunication there between Pudge and Moscoso, because nobody's that bad.
In which case Pudge still needs to get his shit together and square his pitcher away.

Going Through The Motions
Ian Kinsler looks like he’s approaching every at-bat just looking to get finished with his season. 2 RBI in 20 games.
by Mister Naxal on Sep 23, 2009 12:07 AM CDT via mobile reply actions
30/30
It’s pretty clear to me, after watching so many (hundreds of) pop-ups and (though only a few) questionable stolen base attempts, that Kinsler has had his eye on 30/30 the entire year. This feeling is only strengthened by the email that Michael Young’s wife sent out following the Newberg-All-Star-Final-Vote Kinsler and Young dinner giveaway where she said something to the tune of: “Come out and watch Ian get 30/30!” I mean…if Young’s wife is talking about it at the all-star break…Ian was almost certainly focused on it. To the detriment of the team…

OT: Stub Hub
I know some here have used it before, anyone have issues? Ive never used it before.
They have some good deals on tickets for the weekend series, guess season ticket holders are dumping tickets for the end.

Good & bad
They came thru for me on several MLB games at different venues but hosed me with uncertainty at the Cotton Bowl.
I considered the Cotton Bowl incident an aberration and I’d use them again.
"Dying ain't hard. It's living that's hard."
"Ranger players, especially veterans, weren’t surprised that Daniels couldn’t find a deal"
I've used them half dozen times and no problems
Once got tix really early in the season but the tix hadn’t shipped to the owner and I knew I wouldn’t get them before I left town, so StubHub shipped them to my hotel which worked out well.
Remember Red, hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.
I've used them for concert tix and...
…Stars tix and they have always done exactly what they said they would.
I have no objection to man walking on the moon.
Thanks everyone for the input
got some tickets 5 rows from the field for below face value.

Discussion question:
Anderson/Cahill or Holland/Feliz?
"You can probably stick a fork in the Rangers' playoff chances for 2009." - AJM on 7/26 with the team 4.5 games out
weighing in on my own question
I think I’d lean towards the A’s duo. Anderson looks the most impressive of the 4 to me, and I think I’d also take Cahill over Holland.
Tough to say it, but I think if you look at them objectively it is tough to rate the Texas pair higher, but I’m open to someone convincing me otherwise.
"You can probably stick a fork in the Rangers' playoff chances for 2009." - AJM on 7/26 with the team 4.5 games out
heh, one more reply to self
The bright side is that Texas has six years control over both of ours, while Oakland has only 5 years on both of theirs.
"You can probably stick a fork in the Rangers' playoff chances for 2009." - AJM on 7/26 with the team 4.5 games out
I guess we have to see if Feliz can handle starting
but I love having that weapon in the bully. He’s a game-changer out there and could potentially be one of the best closers in the game.
I’d lean towards Cahill/Anderson until we see more consistency from the Dutch Oven and get a better handle on how Feliz will do as a starter.
"Dying ain't hard. It's living that's hard."
"Ranger players, especially veterans, weren’t surprised that Daniels couldn’t find a deal"

We can still pull it out and make the playoffs! We’re winners and winners win! Win! Beisbol!
