Nah. He'll want a hit in a bad way so he'll reach and roll over on a ball to second.

Here I was praying he already did that...

ESPN cracks me up though. The facebook posters there will defend Wash so beyond the realm of rationality.

Strike out looking in the " Murphy zone" the same zone that I'll enjoy watching our pitchers exploit next year.....

Nope, he will be a three pitch strikeout followed by his staring up and the lights and smacking his gum as he walks back to the dugout like "what was that, never seen that before"...even though we all have hundreds of times.

Bottom of the 7th. Runners on 1st and 2nd. 2 outs. Angels bring in a righty from the pen. Wash PHs Murphy. He hits a 2 run double to right center to give Texas a one run lead.

Hey I'm a positive guy! What did you expect?

Here is a question for eveyone. What if the Rangers make the playoffs and Murphy hits like crazy in them and then he gets the big hit that wins the world series. Under those circumstances whould you sign Murphy for next year. Just saying, I know it won't happen?

Not only do you not sign him...I lead the protest to keep he and Lance Berkman from getting rings.

During the HOU series got the feeling TEX was trying to show off a rejuvenated Murphy in hopes they sign him as a cheap FA 4-OFer since TEX will not offer him a QO. Nothing could be better than seeing him play for his hometown.

Guess I can lose that baseball he gave to me and signed for me this spring training.........

It was one of the highlights of my trip too.

He'll hit a 3 run HR, and we'll say "where the hell was that all season long?"

There is no question in my mind that Romeo takes the cash with this prediction. How could it be anything else?

Profar is still a great talent. It didn't shock me that he did that. He's had a flair for the dramatic.

Nope. I'd let someone else overpay him and try to replace him with a guy who can hit all year long.

What I think will happen- strikeout looking on a pitch a foot outside in the Murphy Zone.

What I'd like to happen- a walk-off HR. Murphy is literally one of the nicest people you'd ever want to meet and he's tried like crazy to break out of this awful season-long rut. He even admits he's stunk it up. As a player I can't stand him. But as a person he deserves one last great moment.

Good thought. But a batter who is interfered with by the catcher ... gets 1b but doesn't get an AB. So his last AB wouldn't be an AB at all.

It could happen that way though ... I think Murphy leads the world in catcher's interference because of his long swing to get a pitch out there in the Murphy Zone.
