Rangers vs Kitties: y Yu no win???

[romeo212000]

This HR is an example of what I'm talking about, swing and approach didn't look any different, he just got a pitch he could hit

I'd like to think Im not just excited about the home run, but he just seemed a little more willing to look for his pitch.

A lot of that just has to do with him laying off the junk down and away

Mike Adams has not looked good lately

Not sure why. Not like he's been over used.

In all my years as a ranger fan I've not hated a player on our team more than mike Adams.

Really? Adams has been a pretty good setup guy.

I don't get that at all, but its your opinion

 

[romeo212000]

Good enough mike. Let's tack on some insurance here.

Yeah. I don't get it.

I like Mike Adams, but he really has to hit his spots with the slider for him to really be effective.

Cant argue with that

I get it for guys like Lowe and a couple others, but not Adams, he's been kinda off and on this year, but still a solid 8th inning guy

 

[romeo212000]

Nathan's back...

 

[romeo212000]

Nice win. Hopefully the wizard can get us another series tomorrow.

 

[romeo212000]

Just saw Darvish only had 1 walk. Also gotta give Torrealba some credit for knocking down some tough pitches by Darvish to keep the strikeout a couple times.

Have to be honest I never expected Nathan to look this good. He looks damn close to his early years as a Twin

Agree with you. I think last year he was more lights out. You can almost tell from his very first pitch whether he's going to be on or not. While not all the damage materializes that could score ... he's had some very close calls lately.

Wish Uehara and/or Ogando were options ... I'd far prefer TEX to have a fall back alternatives for the 8th so as to not have to go to Adams every single time. I think when those guys come back Adams will be first in line to welcome them.

You mean third strikes he didn't catch to begin with?

8 pitch first inning. Gota love that.
