Rangers/Angels - All-Star Break Edition

[RevSader]

I feel bad for Mikolas. If he were on a better team he wouldn't have been asked to go so long. Instead he is forced to stay in the game beyond the point he demonstrated he had nothing left to give effectively. Wash left him in to push him and get as many outs as he could. He's obviously not managing tonight's game like he would if this team were right in the hunt. He would have gone to the pen much earlier in one of those situations.

My God, Weaver has been throwing softballs all night and we cannot hit him...

Missed my point. Last night 0 runs on a well pitched game. Tonight RISP has allowed this game to get away. Should be close now.

Yeah, probably so......like I said.....been on "break." I'll try and get back in the grove shortly.

Last night was a very well pitched game for sure. Very well pitched. I was encouraged by the outing.

There are only 3 bench players too, there are lots of arms out there in the BP. Hell get Soria an inning, he didn't have to leave him in that long.

Pitchers and catchers are probably losing a pound or two in this heat.

Weaver threw Choo a fat pitch and Choo missed it...

Happens when you're in the funk he's in

 

[Bmurph]

Rios popped up a very hittable pitch too

 

[RevSader]

Rios did the same thing Choo did...ugh this team is not good at hitting.

Weaver has been hanging pitches all night, and we're popping them all up...

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Rios did the same thing Choo did...ugh this team is not good at hitting.

...and it's Choo, Andrus and Rios in this case...this isn't our rookies missing these pitches...

 

[Bmurph]

Rios did the same thing Choo did...ugh this team is not good at hitting.

And pretty bad at pitching as well........bad combo


Shit I don't even think Cowgill got the bat on that......looks like hit the tip of the helmet maybe

 

[RevSader]

Damn...that blood was flowing.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

We're heading for a blow out...again...

 

[RevSader]

Roogie can turn a sweet DP. Love his arm.

 

[Bmurph]

good turn and catch at first, nice play by EA on hop too

 

[DT LUNA]

We're heading for a blow out...again...

We don't need Soria to close tonight. Why is he not getting some work?

 

[Bmurph]

West looks pretty bad and may get out unscathed

DID.....very fortunate there

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Strike three Trout on check swing..and gets him anyway...good save West and defense.

We don't need Soria to close tonight. Why is he not getting some work?

May pitch the 9th, depending on if the Rangers score any runs or he may just get a couple weeks off waiting on a save opportunity
