Series Thread: It's the O's 5/3-5

[WastinSomeTime]

Thanks.

And we do need to play better at home, no doubt about this.

No kidding, 13-13 is garbage.

From ESPN Stats & Info, how Darvish won:

A. He was tough on righties: right-handed batters went 2-for-16 with eight strikeouts, missing on 14 of 31 swings (45 percent).
B. A 36.7 swing-and-miss percentage, his highest rate this season.
C. He put hitters away: Nats went 1-for-15 with eight strikeouts and one walk in plate appearances that got to two strikes.

I can't recall Cruz starting off this hot for this long. Not sure what his final numbers will be but if he is close to the 40 HR mark it will cost too much.

Don't think he keeps up this pace but if he does he will be north of 50 HR's and he will get a real big contract I'm sure

I would change the title to 6/3-5, but don't want to screw with donalds ability to bring luck with series threads

I don't know if you can edit a thread since you started it or if I would have to. If I have to, not touching it


It really isn't a big deal, I say we roll with it.

Can we turn back the clock to 2011 then?

I've looked into it the best I know how and can't see anyway to do it. So I'm with you.....leave it, love and roll Rangers

If we sweep I say we start putting the wrong dates on all of them.

I don't think so either as it is quite a pace but if he is not injured he realistically could end up with 35 HRs and that will get him some money.

If he can keep this pace until the AS break he'll damn near have 30 HR then. He really is on an unbelievable pace. But yeah, even the great one's cool off, and Cruz is notorious for cooling fast.

I do hope he at least maintains his health and then let the numbers reflect whatever they truly are.

Same here. Don't want to see anyone go out with a pitch on the hands. Seems like someone on our team did that to a hot hitter 3-4 years ago. Was it Feldman then too?

The X-rays were negative, so I guess he'll just be sore for a while, but probably be day-to-day depending on soreness.

I don't remember if Feldman was involved in this or not.

I said this on the other thread before I realized, (duh) new thread is up.
Cano, Hamilton and now Cruz all out with bruised bones on (whichever) hand.

I guess I don't remember that ever being a common injury....or I just didn't notice.

Ha! nice....

 

[Justinkm83]

I would be all about us getting him too but I would be shocked if we did. He is liable to have a handful of suitors and I'm not even sure if we will be in the market for him- we would have to increase our payroll pretty significantly. Perhaps they would save a little money on these season at least though.

You don't think we'll be in on him? I absolutely think we will. I don't think we'll get into a bidding war, but we have Daniel freaking Murphy DHing some games. If thy truly don't want to give up on this season then they need to pursue him.

Hamilton's back for what it's worth. Or close.

Ha ha. Yeah. Too bad it's not Daniel.

True, I wouldn't mind having Daniel Murphy on this team
