It scares me everytime I see scooter's name listed as the starter. But some seem content with it so I guess we live with it

Nobody here is happy with Feldman as a starter. However, most here see its a very short term issue knowing we'll be getting Holland, and Lewis back very soon. Most here don't have the "sky is falling" mentality, and aren't looking to sell the farm for a 3 month rental for a pitcher that may or may not be a true ace like you are.

Its funny that Feldman got the Win because He Pitched so Poorly and deserved to lose. But the Rangers Offense and then Shepper's got out of that jam in the 6th Inning so Feldman could get the Win. Those runs would have been charged to Feldman. Glad Schepper's got out of the 6th inning. then Ross had to bail Schpper's out the next inning.

So Bucky ... who does TEX use instead of Feldman? If you are going to whine about a guy who goes out for 5.0 and is winning when he leaves ... you have to suggest a legitimate alternative and watch what happens when he gets burned in 1.0.

Feldman was ahead when He left 6-4. But the Rangers Offense bailed him out. At One Point Trailed 4-1. Had to be relieved when the First two Athletics got on base in top of the 6th Inning. Pitched Very Poorly. Lucky to get the Win.

Do Understand that right now the Rangers are waiting for Holland and Lewis to get back so Feldman can return to long relief. Not a lot of options now other than giving Perez his first Start.

So what Bucky? They were winning ... they won. Want to go back and grade every other SP who left runners on base that didn't score?

You got a better idea of who they should have used to start?

We need to get Griffin's pitch count up. He's killing us right now.

I am so sick of watching Kinsler take every single first pitch strike. Every pitcher in the league knows Kins will not swing at the first pitch, and every single one of them throws him a first pitch strike.

Very frustrating to watch this team struggle against a rookie making only his start. This Griffin kid could wind up being pretty decent

Why the hell are they pinch hitting gentry for the hottest hitter on the team (Murphy)?

i dont like this move here, murph is the hottest ranger right now. gentry is cold and hasnt been in the lineup consistantly in about a week. and his ankle is giving him trouble. if youre going to pinch for someone, pinch for martin who looked awful against the lefty last night throwing fastballs down the middle. im sure snyder will hit for martin thus weakening the defense in the outfield the rest of the game
