I don't think Josh makes that catch Borbon did in the 9th, is what he's saying.

There was one around the 7th too.

Julio made a few run saving plays I don't know that Josh would've

Then again, I don’t know that Josh would’ve dove in the 1st giving up the two runs.

by rcreative on Aug 24, 2010 9:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

OK, gripe on a win! Gripe against Borbon!

He makes two excellent catches. He is 1-3 and scores a run from the ninth position. Hamilton doesn’t have to kill himself in left tonight. That helps his knee survive longer.

by Philar on Aug 24, 2010 9:41 PM CDT up reply actions  

Josh wouldn't have dived for the first ball

So only one of the runs in the 1st would have scored.

Nope

He’s never really lacked the secondary pitches to start though, just the consistency with those pitches to start.

The biggest road block for Feliz to the rotation though is whether or not there’s going to be room for him there.

By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

Meh

If we dont sign Lee….Wed only have CJ, Colby, and Hunter returning as starters. And CJ may only be here for 1 more year as well.

after that you have a lot of question marks and a group that Feliz belongs in

by Horns130 on Aug 25, 2010 12:40 AM CDT up reply actions  

Feliz though isn't that high on the depth chart

You’d still have Feldman and Holland to round out that rotation and probably Matt Harrison would get another shot before Feliz. I think Feliz to the rotation is between Scheppers and Perez on that depth chart and that might not be enough for the Rangers to look at him as a starter next season. I think we’re still at least a full year away from Feliz being given a rotation shot.

I think there’s more concern about Schepper’s ability to last as a starter than Feliz’s, plus they could break Scheppers in through the bullpen like they did with Feliz. you could put Harrison ahead of him, but Feliz as ace-type stuff. Harrison doesn’t. oh, and we’re going to need lefty arms in the bullpen, too.

feldman… eh.

should not be ahead of Feliz for getting a chance at starting.

by LiamP on Aug 24, 2010 9:47 PM CDT reply actions  

They are allegedly trying to monitor his IP and pitches thrown for the year,

but, heh, he’s pitching as well as anyone in baseball and they’re deadlocked with NYY. I can only figure they’re hoping to bring him back up to the roster in a week when rosters expand and then decide if they’re going to plug him back in the rotation and maybe put Davis in pen as long reliever.

Why demote him to the bullpen of your A- ball team only to bring him back up to start?

by LiamP on Aug 24, 2010 9:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't think where he's getting sent is particularly relevant to that,

but I did just read Maddon said he’s a strong candidate to come back up for either expanded or playoff roster out of the pen. Says they are watching his # of pitches like they did in ’08 w/David Price. I guess it makes sense, considering they can go with Price, Niemann, Garza, and either Shields/Davis in a playoff rotation.

They didn’t say from here on out or anything like that, but for a night game that drew 20K, school starting, and it being the Twins – it was the perfect opp for Chuck to do it. We were joking about tomorrow that if he did it, does that mean Hot Dogs will be .50 for one inning? I hope he pulls a beer special, personally.

We had some mutual friends

and we drank some beer a couple of times (don’t tell Royce…he may have our diplomas revoked with that admission) but I would label him as more of an acquaintance. If we saw each other in Wal Mart, neither would probably recognize the other these days….but it’s always good when a Wildcat does well. I almost halfway don’t root for a meteor to crash into Soldier Field…..

and eve so far as jamming you up if you get in any kind of trouble with alcohol and the law (DUI, Public Intox, etc)…but telilng a 21 year old man who lives in his own apartment that he cannot have a tasty beer is stupid.

Technology sucks sometimes

Some of you emailed me yesterday about the 2 tickets i had for last nights game and thanks to our email server going down ( I only found out about it at 4:30) I let them go to waste. So when I get to work this morning my inbox was full of new ones.Sorry about that! Everyone here has been very cool to this new guy and I dident want you to think I was ignoring you.
