Series Thread: King-less Mariners invade Globe Life 6/3-6-5

Mitch needs to start going the other way, choking up a bit and making better contact, he's hitting into the teeth of the shift almost everytime he makes contact and not striking out

I'm amazed after all these years he can't figure that out on his own.

 

[romeo212000]

Then shame on him.

He's probably afraid that if he admits it his career is probably over.

Counting this year three Dodgers owe Crawford a remaining 42 million, the rangers owe Prince 72 million, that's 58%, not 30%

Counting this year it's 42 for Crawford and 90 for Prince. I forgot the Tigers were kicking in 6m a year.

My bad, I forgot a year, yes it's 90 million

Trading Kinsler was the right move, trading him for Prince was what made it a bad move

We are having to "eat" Prince's contract whether or not we DFA him. One way we get a productive player on the roster and the other way we get a very non-productive player on the roster. The cost is the same either way so to me the cost is a non-issue.

Yes, I have thought that since it happened. Not nearly as strongly as I would eventually though.

Total agreement but it won't happen this year, I think they're holding out hope, or are waiting to discover a physical issue that might allow them to DL him and recoup insurance monies

Same, I never saw Prince falling off the cliff as quickly and drastically as he has

Perez's wife had their first child on Thursday. Didn't realize that.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

And we are not pleased when he is in the lineup.

 

[DT LUNA]

Derek with a 1-2-3

DT guess they all went to the game and Derek with another good inning

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Dutch boy on point so far today.

 

[DT LUNA]

Mitch Mendoza K' again

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Apparently Leonys Martin visited the Rangers locker room this morning. Was greeted warmly by his former teammates, but several other players were not pleased with the visit.

 

[DT LUNA]

Derek is spot on thru 3.

 

[jta4437]

It looked pretty bc it worked but that was a really poor decision by odor

Easily could have been runners at 3rd and 2nd

seems last night took it out of the offenses.
