Rangers vs. A's - Battle for the West

[romeo212000]

In all fairness ... none of the young guys who have pitched tonight were supposed to have to be pitching right now.

But I know what you mean ... not just pitchers though ... have been a slew of hyped position players who didn't work out ... for TEX.

Speaking of which ... CD 2HR 5RBI tonight.

Interesting how he turned it around when he left Texas.

If its working. Don't blame Parker. Blame our dumbass hitters.

Yup

If we lose tomorrow, LA will take 2 out of 3, and we'll head to Oakland with a one game lead after they sweep Seattle. With the way we are playing, you think we take 2 of 3 in Oakland. Not a chance.

Everything about this season hinges on tomorrow. Win and maybe we get things turned around. Lose and we end up being talked about with the great collapses in baseball history.

He actually has a better OPS than Moreland

If, and if, and if, and if.....

I know we're in Texas for the LA series. You think that's going to make any difference the way this team is playing? Think again.

 

[Hambombs]

Should of just forgot about the runner there. Get out of the damn inning! Forget the runner

 

[1502tuley]

Good night everyone. When we aren't screwing ourselves, the A's are hitting weak seeing eye singles where ever our players aren't.

Well if feldman and perez are pitching those games i would bet on us losing.

Just pray Harry has atleast 7 innings in him tomorrow. Dont want to endure ths kind of game for a long time

Yeah i agree nothing less than 7

We have Dempster Holland and Darvish and the Angels counter with Weaver Santana and Greinke.

Look, everything gets "righted" if we win tomorrow and take 2 of 3 from LA over the weekend. Anything short of that and this team will be on life support when we get to Oakland.

Do they even realize they're in a pennant race? I know Feldman and Perez had to pitch but the play is so lethargic it just looks like they don't even care. I guess 2 straight WS trips may do that to you but they look like bottom feeders right now.

The rate we're going Colby Lewis is going to have to pitch in this one...with his left hand.

I am going to go out on the limb here say we beat Weaver on Fri nite. Dempster got roughed up by the Angels in la, but I believe he will have a nice game at home and we win. Holland against Santana is a toss-up. Just dont know what Holland we will get. Yu vs Greinke will more than likely be a 2-1 or 3-2 type game that can go either way

And is Martin Perez really our best prospect starting pitcher? Because if he is, well, that's really unfortunate.

 

[jaar01]

You realize if Beltre wasn't being Beltre on Monday night, the Rangers are staring at a 4 game sweep tomorrow, at home, with the division on the line, against the very team chasing them. Anyone think this team is poised for a deep October run?

Do you pitch him Monday night against the A's again or do you go with Feldman?
