Series Thread: Rangers up North to Play Toronto 7/18-7/20

Even that K to Bautista should've been crushed.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

not even remotely close to locating. he's just throwing what is called. no sense of pitching

He's the one that nailed Cowgill last week...yes, it was deflected off his bat, but it was a shitty pitch...this guy is a thrower, not yet a pitcher...

i dont care that he got that out he's still been in for too long

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

A 100 loss season is a real possibility.

Very much so, I'm afraid...

at this point i dont care. if we're not gonna make the playoffs, at least lose enough to get aiken

 

[RevSader]

Least he didn't totally give up and got the outs eventually.

I highly doubt he's going to go first two years in a row.

I highly doubt he's going to go first two years in a row.

Why? He's one of the best prep arms to ever come out of the draft. I don't see any reason why he WOULDNT be

 

[romeo212000]

Hey guys, remember when we tied the game? That was awesome huh?

I thought you just spent the last 30 minutes telling people not to assume things? You cannot just assume he goes to UCLA and then comes right back at number one. Especially when there are other guys who are projected to be taken first next year.

Even that will come down to the wire. We will be in a fight for the worst record with Houston and maybe another the last few games of the season. We all probably will be watching that.

You can't assume other people will take his spot.... And he's not going to ucla. He's gonna go to juco.
I mean, its much safer to assume that one of the best arms to ever come out of high school will remain in that spot one year later (barring any injury) and we would take that over a college pitcher or a lesser high school pitcher....

Yeh, I bet the Jays almost got nervous there!! It was quite a moment...and it was literally a moment...

 

[donaldson79]

ill be honest if neither of our commentators talked id be perfectly fine with that

We have - today anyway - MacLemore/Busby - and then TAG will be back. We're also cultivating both Pudge and Darren Oliver. Now take those 5 former players, and compare their work with a guy who's never played a minute beyond high school in Eric Nadel, and let me ask: Would you trade those 5 for one Nadel?

We need to get at least one professional announcer, and I'm not talking about Emily or Dana, in the off season as well IMO.

Emily's voice makes me want to punch a baby.

At least we are trying to make it interesting..here come the called K's....

Either way, I think it's silly to get to psyched about losing for a potential chance at a guy who won't be ready for 2015.

 

[romeo212000]

Buzz: He's going to let Janssen face Choo in this situation apparently.....



As the manager is walking to the mound.

Or may never make it to the majors at all for that matter. I don't get too excited over draft picks. They're like lottery tickets.

Arrencibia? Are you shitting me wash?
