c.j. wilson Stories - Lone Star Ball
Friday a.m. stuff
Mike Heika has a story on Brandon McCarthy trying to get his groove back, and how Nolan Ryan is trying to get him back to using his legs, rather than being a (in McCarthy's words) "tall and fall" pitcher. McCarthy also didn't mince words, as far as how he viewed his contributions this season: "I...
Sunday morning things
This has been a lousy few days for Rangers fans. 4 game losing streak. David Murphy and C.J. Wilson out for significant time. 7 1/2 games back in the wild card race. And last night, another ugly blowout loss. Evan Grant says Eddie Guardado and Marlon Byrd, the "most vocal leaders" on the team,...
Saturday morning things
I hate games in Baltimore. There is no team less interesting than the Orioles, and the games start at 6 p.m., which is too early. Games that result in a 9-1 loss in Baltimore are about the worst of all. Luis Mendoza struggled again with his command. Same story with him all year...when he can...
A few things
A few other things I wanted to mention this morning... Mike Hindman talks about an experience he had with C.J. Wilson a few years ago, with Wilson working with Ryan Dittfurth, as sort of a counter-point to the stories that have been out there the last couple of days... Evan Grant agrees with many...
Thursday a.m. stuff
Rangers lose. They are now 6 back in the wild card race. And the bigger news is that David Murphy is expected to miss 2-4 weeks with a strained knee ligament. Nelson Cruz as a replacement? Nope, he's hurt. Evan Grant is saying Jason Ellison, maybe. Eddie Guardado is now the closer, although I...
Still more C.J. stuff
After the jump... Jeff Wilson offers his thoughts on the C.J. Wilson situation, and suggests that some of it could be a by-product of the firing of Mark Connor and Dom Chiti, two coaches who, Jeff says C.J. says, understood him. Wilson also says that this is something that will be handled by...
More on the C.J. situation
If you are tired of reading about this, skip... Otherwise, follow me through the jump... Evan Grant has a blog post up about why he thinks the C.J. Wilson situation, and the related fallout, is significant, in terms of what is going on with this team and in the clubhouse, particularly as it...
Wednesday morning things
6 games over .500, but still 5 back of the Wild Card race. Once again, the Rangers win, but have a sort of cloud hanging over the win. This time, the cloud is C.J. Wilson, who is headed to the disabled list with bone spurs, and who seems to have upset some folks with how he handled last night's...
Cryptic C.J. Wilson comments
Richard Durrett has a blog post on C.J. Wilson: Manager Ron Washington said C.J. Wilson remains the closer. But he added that doesn't mean he won't use someone else to close at times. Obviously, there's some concern about Wilson's performance of late. Wilson hinted that he wasn't 100 percent,...
Saturday a.m. stuff
I go to sleep immediately after the game last night, and miss the real fireworks. Huge comeback win yesterday. Another bad C.J. Wilson outing, followed by another comeback and walk-off win. But all that is made moot by the bombshell dropped after the game, with the news that Mark Connor and Dom...
