Mitch just can't hit lefties ... POW

Crushed! Moreland rewards Wash for sticking with him

Well he really can't, but you throw him a pitch there and its liable to go a long way

 

[romeo212000]

Really need to get a couple more so wash isn't tempted to bring in Nathan.

 

[romeo212000]

Ian looked safe to me.

 

[romeo212000]

Harrison turned this into a very nice outing.

 

[romeo212000]

Adams is getting pounded...

Good, albeit unspectacular, win for them tonight. Wish more of those hard hit balls would have found openings instead of gloves. They'll have plenty more chances to do so against the next 2 craptastic KC starters. Also want to see a dominant performance by a Rangers starter again. Maybe Feldman's still got a little magic left over from his last start.

Murphy starts hitting 8th...

From EG quoting Wash: “He’s hot,” manager Ron Washington said. “I figure I’m going to ride him. At some point, you have to take advantage of a guy being hot, so I’m going to try to do that.”

Wow... great idea! Never mind that Gentry is/was hot too.

Unfortunately Murphy will play at the expense of gentry and in this particular case I would agree that he needs to ride Murphy's hot streak for now. He's not just hitting the ball, he's hitting it on a line almost every time.

Sadly Murphy's hot streak doesn't have to come at the expense of Gentry's playing time, but Young's instead, but Wash is too simple-minded

I agree, but we both know that's not how it's going to work unfortunately.

Also, if Murphy is so hot, why is Young still hitting ahead of him? It makes no sense, sometimes Wash picks and chooses when to make sense

Wash is an idiot with an agenda for MY. This staff will be far better when wash is off it and Maddux takes over.

 

[romeo212000]

Josh still having trouble laying off that junk down and away.

 

[romeo212000]

Mcclellan's zone for Feldman seemed a little tighter than smith's.

 

[romeo212000]

I love hearing busby call MY's groundouts "sharp"

Probably because it's the Gentry/Murphy spot with Olt batting 9th. But even so ... the platoon spot ought to be ahead of MY.

 

[romeo212000]

Nice job by josh not trying to do too much. Beltre follows him up with a solid hit. Hopefully Nelly puts another good swing on one.

 

[romeo212000]

Absolutely awful base running by josh.
