What's the requirement for 'superior'

No clue what the guys think that say we are superior but I'd say top 3 at their position
I think a couple of bull pen guys, 3rd base and perhaps SS isn't enough to push this team in the category of a superior talented team

I would even venture to say that the Rangers are above average in RF, 2b, and SS. Really the only argument to be made in my mind for superior is 3b which is tough with a guy like Miggy there. I give Adrian an advantage defensively and Miggy the nod offensively.

no thanks i know what i see as not performing and i know from what seems like thousands of posts what others think so i'm good

If you want I'll do an audit on the number of Romeo's and my posts relative to Murphy's superiority if it will help.

was mickey mantle superior?

 

[lainey12]

Nah, Murphy was who he meant by my idol just kidding...

I have no idea what is going on.

We're just killing time.

was mickey mantle superior?

That would be yes.
and so is my Mickey Musi-Mantle
in fact, the day we picked her up is the day the Rangers started to win



coincidence?

Yea ... now LAA ... that team has superior talent.

I think I'll just talk about my puppy all night, that wouldn't be annoying

ogando and garza available for long relief? and who pitches 8th and 9th?

Just because Scheppers and Nathan have pitched everyday for a month - it seems anyway - our leader will probably go with the "tried and proven" when it comes down to it. Sorry, but this is life as we know it today.

To me, it defeats the entire purpose of having an expanded roster if you're going to play the same guys everyday anyway. Hell, save the laundry bills, and make more room in the dugout/BP, if you're never going to put anyone else in.

Surely, surely not!

I'm yelling....

"puppies!!!!!"

no i'm good thanks.

I was more nervous yesterday. Something about being knocked out of contention by the Angels had me livid. I can stomach losing to the Rays. Sure as hell don't want that to happen though.

Yea, me too interestingly enough. I will say that being in the east now it seems like the waiting around is just brutal. Back in NM this thing starts at 6:05 local which is perfect for getting home from work, grabbing a bite and settling in. Out here the 8:05 local is brutal because its a two hour plus wait around after getting home. Just want to get it started.

 

[lainey12]

Surely, surely not!

I counted it out last night, it's pretty darn close


of course, you can't troll my 2 pound pup if we lose...
can you?

 

[Windingmywatch]

was mickey mantle superior?

From the right side ...

Maris was superior as long as Mantle was batting behind him.

 

[PDay8810]

Been trying to coax the answer to that one out of him since he mentioned it...

No you haven't....you got your panties bunched from the start

"120 million dollar payroll, but you claim they don't have superior talent. If that's the case, the front office isn't as good as you claim, because who pays 120 million for mediocre talent?"


What an illusion this was.
superior should be top 3 talent...NO?
who is top 3 on the Rangers that qualifies this team as superior talent.

you will do anything to defend your Washington rants...even calling this teams talent superior
LOL at you Captain
enjoy the game!
