It's weird watching a night game at 8:00 pm
In the middle of March.

First chance this year. Hope Harden brings a little something to feel good about

Oh no
had the top 10 in the background and Basick thinks he and Harrison are the same kind of pitcher.
We need to not always make hard work out of sex- Rick Carlisle.
He was doubting those 97mph reports on Harrison with BaD earlier today

Alright Kids
Here we go, this will be a major test drive of this new software… Expect it to be really choppy, not to work real well. But, for the most part, it should be OK…
One of you please PM me if it quits or is real bad… Thanks

LHP Martin Perez: Pretty good FB command, but overthrew a bit. Excellent fade to CU, which is continuing down the road to a 65 grade pitch. The CB looked good, but wasn’t CRAZY good like it can be. Mechanics are very clean and he was able to command all three pitches.
that's a pretty negative review by his Martin's standards
love it

So, uh, what happened to commenting in the last post?
“Boy, that escalated quickly… I mean, that really got out of hand fast.”
“It jumped up a notch.”
“It did, didn’t it?”
“Yeah, I stabbed a man in the heart.”
“I saw that. Brick killed a guy. Did you throw a trident?”
"You promised me, Eckstein, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life, there have only been one set of prints in the sand. Why, when I have needed you most, have you not been there for me?" David Eckstein replied, "Because my little legs had gotten tired, and you were carrying me." And I looked down and saw that I was still carrying David Eckstein.
Then he grounded out weakly to second.

I don't know how to explain this
but it seems to me that Harden is throwing the ball with his arms more than usual.

Well I don't think he looks too bad
He’s clearly holding back a bit. Dials it up when he needs to.
But there’s no way he’s going 4 innings. And during the season, we’ll just have to accept that Harden won’t normally go past 6 innings

This year...
The Rangers should do some throwback games that AREN’T Senators throwback games (not that it’s not a sharp look).
Maybe June 11th, 20 year anniversary of Nolan’s 6th No Hitter… they could rock the old Rangers script.
I truthfully do not get...
How this team doesn’t embrace ANY of it’s history. I don’t buy past futility as a reason why, because you look at the Cooperstown Collection stuff, and even similarly awful teams always have a lot more merchandise than we do. There is a market for the stuff, they’re just reluctant to put any of it out.
