Rangers/M's

[WilltheThrill]

Thanks Scheppers. We just have too many shaky pitchers who can fall apart at a moment's notice- Feldman, Scheppers, Kirkman, Lowe, Tateyama, sometimes Uehara...

 

[elziegreat42]

So much for that.

And why did Wash pull Perez???

especially since smoak sucks from the right side

 

[fanman8825]

So much for that.

And why did Wash pull Perez???

He only threw 56 pitches. He surely could have gone one more inning.

 

[WilltheThrill]

We need to win it in the 8th with Kinsler, Andrus, Hamilton, and Beltre due up.

yep, whoever said earlier if the rangers lose this game, it's on wash...... i completely agree

 

[guitarmy21b]

Damn this is a good game.

 

[elziegreat42]

come on kins! that was a semi tough play, but his defense has been crap for a while now. he needs to wake up and pull his head out of his ass! a slump at the plate is one thing, poor defense from a good defensive player is inexcusable

 

[WilltheThrill]

Our pitchers are just piss poor at holding runners. Our catchers don't have a chance most of the time.

+1

We need a HR here.

That was me and I have not been a big Wash basher but felt compelled to do so tonite. Between Feldman starting , Murphy starting despite being 0-15 against Vargas and Perez not coming out to pitch for the 8th with having only thrown 56 pitches, well I felt there was plenty of ammo to bash Wash

 

[WilltheThrill]

0 for 5 night from the leadoff hitter. Outstanding.

 

[elziegreat42]

ugly swing by kins

 

[guitarmy21b]

Murphy seems like he's in a slump, Gentry should play the next game

 

[WilltheThrill]

Time for a 2-run bomb from Josh.

Yep he should have played tonite

 

[1502tuley]

Shit poor AB from Hambone. He swung at the same junk pitch he always falls for. Low and outside, low and outside. It's fucking sad. If the pitcher doesn't make a mistake, he WILL strike Hamilton out on low and outside pitches outside of the strike zone 8 out of 10 times.

 

[WilltheThrill]

I wish we could string together 3 base hits more often. The A's and Angels are both much better than us at that.

 

[elziegreat42]

well, that will probably be ballgame. bullpen, aside from perez, was terrible tonight

 

[WilltheThrill]

Like I said, they just have the hardest time getting 3 consecutive hits. Two fluke plays get them 2 men on and they proceed to pop out and strike out looking.

We need Robbie Ross back in the worst way. We currently have 4 pretty solid starters, 3 or so reliable relievers, and the rest of the pitching staff is a complete crap shoot.

Six runs should beat the Mariners 99 times out of 100. Hope you feel really good about yourself Feldman.
