Rangers/Angels - All-Star Break Edition

Never saw Choice play like this kid.

He did in ST. Their swing is actually similar. They both lean a bunch with legs bent. Hard to explain but I noticed some similarities.

On defense?

I stole this from an ESPN Facebook post - this guy was quoting an article on SI.com:


Since last reaching .500 back on June 16 with a win over Oakland, Texas' pitchers have been battered to the tune of 147 runs in 24 games, or 6.1 per game. The team's ERA in June was 4.97, the worst mark in the AL and ahead only of Colorado. In July, things have gotten even worse: A 7.84 ERA, not including Friday's loss, in 85 innings. Unsurprisingly, that's 30th among all major league teams, a full run worse than the Astros. This month, opposing batters are hitting .313/.367/.558 off Texas pitchers; in other words, they've turned every hitter they've faced into Miguel Cabrera.
Rangers' dismal 2014 season continues with loss to Angels - MLB - SI.com

Sounds about right.

Probably because Choice is not Majors material. I'm saying (probably) never but will give a 1% chance because....
baseball
I didn't see a glimmer of anything in that kid, trade him if you can

I hope they gave some context in that article, it's not like we didn't have a fairly solid rotation going in...kind of

 

[Xx srs bsns xX]

Ball was right down the middle. He won't see
Many like that in the bigs.

Thanks for that highlight though since I've been
throwing up for the last 20 games.

*25 (3-22 in their last 25)

He was good in spring training.

Yep....it's Washington's fault for not starting him every game in April

That didn't take long.

Hours before opening day..."Fuck wash. That is all"


B I N G O.....now sit your ass down

Go fuck yourself. Has nothing to do with the conversation. Typical deflection and acting like you made some kind of point.

LOL....you remain one of the very few I'd like to meet.

Point that finger all you want. You squat to pee like no other.
Avoid the posts shithead....it's not that hard

Alright there Internet tough guy. :rollseyes:

I'll respond to any post I want. It's a public forum. Sorry you can't handle differing opinions dick head. Feel free to put me on ignore if you can't handle it.

This all remains YOUR problem big boy, not mine.
You just can't help yourself pointing that finger all the time being exactly what you're pointing at.


I can handle it, it's you that's lacking.

My problem? I made one innocuous post with a friendly little jab at your all too predictable post, and you go and make things personal in typical fashion and try to flex your e-muscles. Hell, about 90% of your posts are you being this Internet tough guy, and only 10% are you actually contributing something to this board. It's pretty obvious based on your interactions with... well... pretty much everyone in here that you're the one with the problem. There's an old saying that I think applies here. If everywhere you go you keep running into assholes, look in the mirror because you're the asshole. Do us all a favor and fuck off.

That isn't close but it's your version.
No where did I say I'd beat you up little boy. I said you were one of the few I'd like to meet. That's because of the shit you've always posted behind that keyboard. You have called a lot of people a lot of things in the year plus I've read this board. Sorry, I have a vision of what you are and not afraid of voicing my views....never have been. I laugh at you. You point a finger and squat to pee all at the same time. You hate Washington like no other, yet turn this to me as some protector of Ron.

Your issue pal, not mine

Yeah, no. Nice spin attempt though cowboy. Like I said, feel free to put me on ignore.

Looks like you've been busy. Maybe you got back in time to see things have not changed much.
