Series Thread: Rangers hosting and then traveling to play the LA Dodgers

Great bounce back after the single and being down 3-0. Yo is growing on me.

I didn't realize he had 25 K's in his last 25 innings. That's pretty impressive.

Rollins was running like it was a hit and run and Callaspo hung his ass out to dry. He was beat big time.

Rollins was just expecting Callaspo to either foul it off or put it in play. He failed at both.

 

[romeo212000]

Lmao. Puig is not happy about being called off.

 

[RevSader]

I love Puig. Dude is hilarious and shows his emotion.

Unless they've made this decision after watching him develop over his time in the system.

In ST Banister seemed to think his future was at 3B and I don't recall hearing anything negative about his defense in any of the minor league reports this year. Not that they won't eventually decide that, but I think it would be very premature for them to do so now. I think the plan was to get him enough minor league experience in the OF so that he could come up eventually and play OF until Beltre is gone. I really think this is more of a reaction to the injuries to our outfielders than a reaction to Joey's defense at 3B. Like you, I don't care for the idea, but it is what it is now.

 

[RevSader]

Stick with it Joey. I liked the AB last time.

 

[romeo212000]

Frias really trying to stay inside to Gallo. He better get that ball inside, because Gallo likes that pitch on the inner half.

 

[RevSader]

Gallo knows he did bad, but I liked his hustle down the line regardless.

 

[romeo212000]

Stick with it Joey. I liked the AB last time.

That one was pretty good till he pretty much decided to swing at that 3-1 pitch regardless.

Yeah, I don't know how everyone fits together, but I'm hoping it involves Choo being traded. Not that he isn't producing this season, but I've just soured on him in general, and he's blocking the way for guys like Gallo, Mazara, and Williams.

 

[romeo212000]

That was filthy by Gallardo.

 

[romeo212000]

I fucking hate Puig. Get your fucking ass back to the dugout.

 

[RevSader]

LOL that slow walk to the dugout...people who get pissed at that just get over yourself. It was hilarious.

At least his production will make it easier to trade him. Comparatively speaking that is, trading that contract is still going to present some difficulty.

 

[RevSader]

Keep it going Yo.

We're eating 25% of that contract in a best case scenario, but we could get some good pieces back if his numbers continue to trend the way they have since the beginning of May.

 

[romeo212000]

Mitch, that was the exact same pitch that got you last time.

 

[darrylgann]

Come on Rangers! Hit!

 

[DT LUNA]

So according to TAG if you throw a pitch 10 feet wide of the plate and swing and miss it then it was a tough pitch. That was a ball the minute it left Frias hand.
