Series Thread: Hamilton, Rangers host dysfunctional Angels

[Kelleyman]

Hamilton not in lineup, DDJr lead off and Rosales in OF.

I think Alberto gets more reps in AAA, what if Elvis or Odor goes down. Immediate plug in.

 

[Kelleyman]

what a crock. Rosales should have gone

We need more depth before we can lose Rosales IMO. Am surprised he is starting in OF though. Beltre is quite fragile too. Wonder if we could see some Rua at third base at some point. (Probably not but still spitballing)

Just getting as many RH hitters in there as possible

It amounts to Choo being benched for Rosales, so yeah there is your RHB

With you Kelleyman. This is just idiotic. Talk about desperation moves.

You're overreacting. It's one game.

Ok 1. I like Rosales for some sentimental reason. Love his hustle, heart and patriotism
2. We do not have MIF depth so I think it would be a bad move to DFA Rosie at THIS point
3. We have Josh and Choo sitting today so regardless of matchup, this is a move for today only that surprises. Josh is reported to be day to day but not in consideration of DL. I have heard nothing re Choo so it makes we wonder why sit Choo.

I don't have an answer for that

It's the R vs L thing which I do not agree with in this case.

Nor do I. But Choo has had some back problems recently, and we're in the mist of playing damn near everyday. So maybe it's just, "give the guy a day off." Not sure either.

Choo is 4-17 in our last 5 games, so make of that what you will.

I think most of us like Rosales, for the very reasons you mentioned. He isn't and won't be a mainstay on a good team though. Just like he isn't for us right now.

 

[Kelleyman]

Yeah of course I Wonder if there is some undisclosed Choo injury

Btw nice tiger quote

glad you enjoyed the quote. I got a pretty good chuckle outta it too, obviously.

 

[Kelleyman]

Please indulge this tweet. Yeah I am a fan but alas ultimately he will be replaced
And BTW. Hope everyone's 4th went well. Thanks to those who paid the price of freedom.
not just rhetoric or holiday song. God bless the USA

 

[donaldson79]

Don't forget a 6 game time tonight.

I finally got a radio - in the house - so I can mute the Buzz/TAG show. Salvation........

Damn It....right on cue during the pre-game show.....TAG, "Rosales has played the OF before, in the past."

 

[DT LUNA]

Don't know one thing about soccer but I'm really supporting USA girls.

 

[donaldson79]

Both Houston and Oakland lost today. Now all we've got to do is take care of our own business.

 

[DT LUNA]

Same old crap.

 

[Duane1952]

Not a good start Colby.

 

[Duane1952]

Prince crushed that one.

 

[DT LUNA]

Thank you Prince. How about that Cj?

 

[Bmurph]

Not supposed to get hops like that at home, maybe part of the reason the stink at home? Oh that and the pitching and lack of hitting.
