Series Thread: RANGERS vs BOSOX 4/7-4/9

[jta4437]

Carpenter is definitely on my list.

Brian Wilson

 

[Hambombs]

people sometimes forget how good sizemore used to be. I remember playing fantasy one year and the rankings were Hanley Ramirez, Albert Pujols, Grady Sizemore, Ryan Braun, Mark Teixera, then Roy Halladay.


He was elite

He was. Offensive machine

 

[terpsfball09]

Not a big fan of brian wilson like seemingly everyone else is either. Too much flash and flare. Just go out there and do your job dude.

 

[Bmurph]

They originally gave Andrus an error on that ball in the hole?

Apparently the scorer at fenway may have imbibed a little before the game or they're just a dumbass too

 

[TheRangerDude]

Jose Valverde is another

pretty sure his career is over but Vicente Padilla was a pretty big scumbag.

 

[elziegreat42]

Why even have announcers if they aren't allowed to talk about the players? Put your TV on mute?

Really? You've never commented on and disagreed with ANY statement by Tom and Busby? Of course they can say what they want, and I'm also allowed to as well

Jesus Scheppers.........he's put the LO man, who sucks, on base twice now.

He seems to have pretty good movement on his pitches though.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

He needed to go after Nava.

 

[Bmurph]

Get it together Tanner, this guy can hurt you

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Brian Wilson

 

[jta4437]

He was. Offensive machine

Solid around player, nothing really elite about him, stole some bases, hit some HRs, a lot of his value came from his defense.

 

[Bmurph]

go up and in, or just throw that whatever works

What did he do?

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Much better than that Phillies 2nd inning.

 

[elziegreat42]

Bautista

 

[Hambombs]

Solid around player, nothing really elite about him, stole some bases, hit some HRs, a lot of his value came from his defense.

He was a 30-30 threat though. Also yes a good defender. He had a WAR of 6-7 every year

 

[terpsfball09]

I just feel like sometimes he cares more about his look and how "intimidating and unique" he is rather than just doing his job..

Huston Street is one of the guys I respect most. Small guy, nothing flashy about him. Clean cut and old school. Goes out there, doesn't get pumped up or anything after saving the game. He just does it and shakes his teammates hands

If YOU have such a problem with their topics, YOU can put it on mute, its also an option

Seems stupid to question announcers just making conversation about the guy at bat, which is part of their job

 

[jta4437]

Bautista

Which Bautista?

 

[jta4437]

He was a 30-30 threat though. Also yes a good defender. He had a WAR of 6-7 every year

I'd say both are good qualities but neither was elite, the fact is he filled up the stat sheet across the board, thats what made him a really good player
