I think Moreland driving in a couple of runs yesterday is worth mentioning.

Kinsler going all Jackie Moore on us

Use your $13M and buy a bunch of tissues. You little bitch.

Yes it is. But don't mention it to night crawler. :rollseyes:

Not really... one didnt get out of the infield...the other was a double play that he beat out.

He and Hamilton deserve one another.

Still two runs

Still two runs

I hate that "concept".
I'll give you the 1st run...since it was actually a legit out (sac fly). Yay Moreland. (or anyone for that matter)
I thought it was an infield hit....but forgot that it was Rios that had the hit.

But the second one being a double play (and I believe would have ended the inning). No.
Even if it wasnt an inning ending one....that's worse b/c of it being a "rally killer".

LOL....no hard feelings

Wow. I just lost all kinds of respect for Ian. He would've gotten a standing ovation on his return to the ballpark from me. Not now.

Way to not show his butt hurt eh?

Somebody has got to be the last to know. Apparently on Kinsler's quote it's me. I missed it and no one posted it. So what's up?

Thanks for the updates. And yeah, I'm a little surprised he'd come out and attack the team first, not the GM. If he's got friends on the squad, you should never say anything like that. Come out and blast Daniels if you want. And I'm gonna admit, it concerns me some the former face-of-the-franchise left and hated JD, obviously Kins does too, and can't imagine Nolan feeling a whole lot different. Just not a good thing IMO. Maybe JD needs to work on his people skills a little.

But, Kinsler vented toward his former teammates and was classless. Bottom line.

Good move JD.

JD's job is to make the tough decisions and do business. Not coddle people and wipe their noses. Nothing to be concerned about. Ian is just showing his ass.

Absolutely. Sorry Ian, but you don't churn out enough production to justify that attitude.

Yeah and the way they handled Profar last year, Ian had to know what was coming and should understand why.

Bet the most disappointed at Kinsler's comments is MY.

Wait ... wait ... wait ... you mean he beat out a double play and a run scored? Well he doesn't get an RBI but the run scored because he beat it out... in spring training. Isn't that what you expect a professional to do?

Norm and Seabass just grilled Ian. It was a great segment.
