Don't think anyone mentioned anything about decisions from the dugout but you. Why do you feel the need to always bring it up?

LOL....you are the poster child for such claims in game threads. You might be the furthest thing from an equal opportunity complainer about nothing at all we have here.
Your rants remind me of my old coach who said, "Get a tin cup, might be more effective"

I agree......Baker more than adequately did what he was suppose to do.
Agree with you also. He did a fine job on four days rest and on short notice. Got to like the way he stepped up.

Don't try that red herring argument with me. Nobody was talking about wash at all, yet you still seem to find a need to defend him. I'd say that says more about you than you want to admit.

You asked the question. Besides, it's a game thread and you're outta the box by inning two on most nights. Washington is mentioned all over the place. I'm fine with my opinions, as you seem with your opinions....they will vary in group forums from time to time.

I did ask the question because you brought it up for no reason, and you're still avoiding answering it. Again, it speaks volumes. Second, no I'm not out by the second innings most nights. That's flat out false. Thanks for playing.

Choice actually does pretty well in CF. He struggles in LF.

I agree with on both points. However, you're aren't saying he's as good as Martin are ya?

it all is a matter of how one looks at things. You go ahead and claim victory...that speaks volumes too

Of course not.

OK....just checking boss.....at ease.

It sure would be something wonderful if we got a decent outing outta Saunders. Not counting on it mind ya, just merrily wishing for the stars.

Just an FYI:

Gerry Fraley ‏@gfraley 9m
No sign of Yu Darvish as Rangers pitchers take early BP in advance of weekend series at Washington. Darvish had been scheduled for Sunday.

Gerry Fraley ‏@gfraley 4m
Lewis and Tepesch, who will start first 2 in Washington, are hitting. Also Scott Baker, who had 6 good innings in Darvish's spot on Tuesday.

Cause he's your best defensive CF/OF?


Choice would have been his replacement... and just no.

Picking and choosing aren't you. I never said that on the game thread until you brought it up after the game. Why don't you also quote me on that idiotic move of having Giminez bunt with 2 strikes, which he should not be bunting in the first place, or was it because there is no excuse you can give RW on that situation. Now that I was irritated during the game along with others. And if someone tries to come up with an excuse for it they must be on the team payroll. That was my game thread rant.

Why not ph for Martin. He stinks at the plate right now and a lefty was pitching. And why isn't Pettis in Rios ear telling him to lead off more with the lefty on the mound and his back to 3rd and yelling at him to go on contact. And having Giminez bunt with 0 outs in the 4th and a man on 2nd and the guy is hitting 444 and still have him try and bunt with 2 strikes takes the cake. Now I am not saying that cost us the game but that is a stupid, stupid decision and there is no defending that.

This us what I had in response to what you had Xx and it was after the game. It was not an in game rant but a response to what you threw out there.

Right-hander Yu Darvish will return to the rotation and take his normal turn on Sunday at Washington, the Texas Rangers said on Wednesday.

According to the club, Darvish said medication and treatment helped ease the neck stiffness that forced him to be scratched from a scheduled start at Minnesota on Tuesday. Darvish threw lightly in the outfield after receiving treatment and showed no signs of discomfort.

We all were entitled last night, Wastin. Still a bit miffed.
