5th inning against the Tigers
i hope he doesn't reach it at all
i’m rooting for his OPS to drop below .800 today.
maybe he’ll change his approach if he doesn’t hit his 30/30 goal. I fear that if he does hit it, which most likely he will, he’ll consider his season a success. blah
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.
Rooting against Kinsler today?!?!

From last night's telecast:
Josh: Well, a quick shout out here, TAG. Just checking emails. Ranger fan Tim wants to know if we can give a quick shout out to one of the great blogs out there, Lone Star Ball. It really is a great site to visit if you haven’t. They’re coming up on one million comments about the Rangers…
Tom: Wow.
Josh: …since 2005. It shows you the breath, and the depth and the interest in Ranger baseball across Texas and points beyond. So, congratulations to Lone Star Ball. Ya’ll do a great job.

Here's a question
Do you think Feldman will be the Opening Day starter next year or will they stubbornly stick with Millwood? (That is of course assuming they don’t sign a front line free agent starter…)
Millwood will start it
unless he’s traded.

"Dying ain't hard. It's living that's hard."
"Ranger players, especially veterans, weren’t surprised that Daniels couldn’t find a deal"
...
Kinsler will not play better
than he did in 2008 (because he was having a superstar season) although he might be healthier.
The only player I see making rapid improvement is CDavis.
All the young pitchers are a grab-bag and nobody can forecast with accuracy who will be successful plus this bully was so overworked, I’m expecting the same crap we saw last year (currently constructed).

I have no problems admitting when I have been wrong.
I missed badly this year on Tiny E and the Ranger win total.
Anything else you need to discuss?

and the pitching staff and the defense and
Hanks should be batting in the #2 hole and ….. there is no real point. All you will do is begin to insult people and then bail.

I thikn the ump has a thing for Sweeney's mom
per the gameday… should be 1-2
He is throwing ok
Tons of fouls and taking close pitches that are being called balls
wouldja
trade Feliz for Anderson?
I’m guessing I will get a chorus of “no way, Feliz throws 100!!!”, but I’d do it. That Anderson kid is a young lefty ace next year, while we still don’t know if Feliz is a starter or not.
BTW, the two are only a couple months apart in age.

Ryan contacts prospective owner
A source has confirmed an mlb.com report that Nolan Ryan has shown interest in possibly joining the group being put together by sports attorney Chuck Greenberg to purchase the Rangers. Greenberg was reached earlier today and declined comment, but sources have confirmed that he is the front man for a group of investors that has made one of six offers to purchase the Rangers from Hicks Sports Group. Owner Tom Hicks also declined comment.

And the Rangers haven’t exactly been sub-par either. We’ve been a terrible franchise,top it off with getting nowhere close to a Championship,EVER.
