BBQ cookoff at the Grill: KC @ TEX 5/10-12

[Kelleyman]

Ranger announcers ha I f intelligent discussion about how to construct a lineup

 

[saddles]

 

[Kelleyman]

Yeah you can say that for most of the team.
These batting avgs and ops are miserable looking.. calhoun .426, Ibanez at .550, Semien at .446.. ehh

Guess my point is dead weight bring down solid hitters
They just pitch around them

 

[DTC]

Why did they pull him after such a low pitch count and good performance?

 

[saddles]

It is still really early with a small sample size for White, but at least he has done well with the opportunity given him this year. We very well may have three outfielders in the future who can force him to the bench, but we would have to be a lot better off than we are now. That would be great.

I guess Woody didn't think the bullpen got enough work yesterday.

 

[saddles]

I guess Alexy is officially broke. He had an absolutely awful outing tonight.

Broadcast said Woody did not want him to go over 80 pitches due to length between starts

That sounds like he was looking for an excuse.

I don’t mind a guy on the bench who has superior defense Speed and solid contact

Great pitchers pitch for the last strikeout

Yeah, we might get to the late innings of a World Series game where we need him for a late innings defensive replacement. That is, if the manager we have at the time is wise enough to do so.

 

[DTC]

Well… if it wasn’t for Calhoun and Miller we wouldn’t be up 2-0 lol
Irony.. gotta love it

 

[Kelleyman]

Raymond seemed a bit confused

The one weakness of our coaching over the years is putting individual over team

King about to blow this

 

[WastinSomeTime]

I was going to post the other day that Miller should start about 3 out of every 4 games. I felt that if given the opportunity he would drive in runs. Then he made an error right away and I decided to not say anything. But let him play some 3rd and 1st as he played around 50 games at 1st last year. I mean our defense stinks anyway so why not.
