2014 Offseason

Hmm...

It's funny in that TAG has been talking about how the field gets so baked later in the afternoon. Then today the announcers chatted with Mike Maddux and he said, "playing here in AZ, it comes down to, whoever hits the most ground balls wins."

No HR involved today. At least not yet anyway.

Not a fan of GIDP's... at all.

3-1 Rangers headed into the 5th.

Martin scored from 3rd on an "attempted" steal of 2nd by Elvis. Elvis took off, stopped...faked a move to 2nd - catcher threw to 2nd...ball got away... Martin scored.

That's kind of what I thought it sounded like happened. I was thinking double steal, but close enough.

EA dropped a line shot.

EA makes another error on a semi-hard hit liner.

Now Biemel - who is nothing but a lefty/lefty guy - now must face an RH hitter and promptly gives up a single.

3-2, one out, in the top of the 5th.

Quickly becomes 3-3. Beimel not looking good

We're at it again.

I'm not sure this guy -Biemel - makes the team right now. Can this team afford to have a guy so specialized he can only get out a guy or two if they are left-handed?

 

[DT LUNA]

Forgot about Ross Wolf

Gimme a B.....gimmie an E.....now an I..............

I think Beimel just killed the Gameday feed. Just as well... it's near 5pm.

 

[donaldson79]

8-3 - DODGERS - going into the 6th.

Yep....they got 7 in the 5th.

Fraley needs to be more thorough in his writing. He only gives the combined numbers for all LF candidates and is cherry picking to try to prove his point. .

Good job. Agree. Goodness knows we never cherry pick our stats we use to make our case here on the board. However, Fraley considers himself a professional. Know that is scary.

Kirkman has been released.

End of an era.

 

[donaldson79]

EA comes through - following Martin's perfect bunt - and now it's 8-5, one out, men at 2nd/3rd and AB at bat.
AB walks and the bases are loaded.

Gallo pinch running for AB.

 

[donaldson79]

End of an era.

Literally

 

[Windingmywatch]

Banister and the Rangers are absolutely not just going by stat lines in their judgement of the LF candidates.

Good thing for Choo.
