Snyder getting the start at 1B

 

[guitarmy21b]

Darvish threw some filthy stuff at Morneau, he looks much better so far

 

[guitarmy21b]

Atta boys Nap & Nelly! Earn papa them fantasy points!

 

[guitarmy21b]

Snyder got a hit!

Snyder > Moreland

 

[guitarmy21b]

Did a nice job turning that DP too

MY

Well Yu settle down and get that pitch count down. Still got this.

 

[guitarmy21b]

Pretty tough inning(3 hits and a walk) for Yu but somehow escaped with only 1 run allowed. Should be 2 hits and an error committed and no ER allowed.

 

[txrangerfan1971]

MY is not a great 3b choice I suppose. But his bat is really needed.

 

[txrangerfan1971]

I could not see it but sounds like Josh crushed one.

Yeah it was a big blast to RF, almost went foul

425 ft. cleared the stands in RF

Snyder looks a lot more athletic than Mitch

How's Darvish doing?

How's Darvish doing?

Gave up a hit in an otherwise great 1st inning, struggled in the 2nd, had a really quick 1-2-3 third inning. His delivery has changed since his first start, he's not bringing his hands up over his head anymore.

 

[romeo212000]

Sounds like he's making progress. I just want him to continue to get better each start.

 

[gregrey972]

Maybe I am just holding him to an unfair level of expectations, but it just seems like Darvish is a little wild and not able to hit spot consistantly again today. He has been kind of lucky to have only given up 1 run so far.

 

[gregrey972]

This just in!!! Darvish has lowered his ERA into the 4's!

It has been frustrating, but I know what he's capable of when he starts clicking. He had a couple rough ST outings, but put it all together in his last start against Colorado.

Yu Darvish is definitely not unhittable. But does not seem to give up the big hits too much. Big play at the plate gets him out of trouble.
