It has been really good to see Colby pitching well again.

I love him so much, so it makes me so happy to see him bounce back.

Radio was all I had back then in West Texas.

not fortunate enough to be able to listen to Nadel tonight, however I do enjoy him a ton when I get the opportunity

Wastin you had the best of the best....loved it......Murph I COULDN'T AGREE WITH YA MORE.

Little NY Geek has made me a fan of fans of his!

Honestly......we're truly fortunate to have had the opportunity.

What the heck.

What the hell is going on tonight? This is a good 10 games worth, much less a loner.

He's a very good SS. He and Elvis are probably about equal.

In defensive runs saved maybe, yet all the other metrics are in Andrus' favor, many of them drastically in Elvis' favor

So I don't see how they are one apart in DRS, one of the quirks of sabermetrics

I agree with the statement that Hanley couldn't carry Elvis' glove, even with all his issues, Hanley is a very inferior defender to Andrus

It's a homer fest!!!!

 

[Nightcrawler]

I'm good with it.... These guys were due for a win. Most teams are ahead of us by a few games in the tanking contest. With sale on the mound tomorrow, the Rangers will probably lose.

Did you see the article this morning in the DMN? Long and short is, he's just now become adjusted - physically - to be able to throw between starts due to his hip.

Maybe we're seeing the Colby we're get for the rest of this year, and more importantly, next year.

Are we talking about Alexei or Hanley? I was talking about Alexei.

 

[jta4437]

think he's raised it close to 70 points since he's returned maybe .69

Believe he was hitting .133 when he came back

I corrected myself on this......I was the one talking Hanley......re-read your's and knew you were with Alex.

Ha I read through all that and got the impression that the discussion was about Hanley....

Was trying to speed read and get caught up on the topics, my bad

 

[donaldson79]

I've been meaning to ask this all season: Does anyone know who all the players are in the Papa Johns commercial?

I recognize Kevin Mench.....the rest I'm lost.

I was just marveling at Alexi Ramirez' ability to hit more homers than Elvis. He must have a lot of torque and bat speed, because he's so skinny. I guess Donaldson thought I meant Hanley. Kind of a funny mistake in the end. No problems.

 

[jta4437]

I am worried he will get so hot that they keep him around for next year.

JPA might have value as a C/1B/DH bench player and I don't have a problem with that

I started this train of thought. Sorry

So from now on it's Alexei and not "what's his name?"
