This I don't dispute, he's thrown out 1 of 10 since he's been here

But in his career he's been right around league average

I haven't seen you post one positive thing about Soto, you only chime in when its negative

And good job with the name-calling, real mature

i guess the same could be said when you antagonize, agreed?

i did say early on with soto his bat was a major upgrade. but your right, there really hasnt been anything positive from soto aside from a couple hits, which over time, every player gets them every now and then

really? I'm expected to go through all your posts and hunt for one positive thing?

Antagonize? All I said is don't be that guy that only pops up with negative statements but never anything positive

Even WMW manages to give the occasional prop for his whipping boys

All you ever do is complain about something

i dont expect you to go through my posts, but i do expect you to not generalize someone when you admittedly dont research their posts. maybe you only remember negative posts of mine. hell, i think 90% of all the posts from everyone (and me as well) in july were negative, and with merritt i might add with the level of play the rangers laid out there many nights.

this is a forum that some people take to different level. i will vent and praise players on the rangers. i havent made any personal remarks towards anyone, without antagonism. those who do are those who make forums bad. an argument about something that has to do with game is fine. but making things personal is bullshit. just my opinion....

You called me an asshole, I made no such attack, I would call that a personal remark, and that would make you one of "those people" who makes forums bad

And I've paid enough attention to your posts to know that you've been almost nothing but negative in the last month or so

I am straight forward with my posts and I offer evidence when I can, if I can't I try and make educated summations.

If you find that antagonistic, then so be it, sounds like a personal problem, I don't know of many people who have a problem with my posting style

OT: Is a hold essentially a save before the 9th inning? Meaning the same rules apply as for saves, but instead of a save you get a hold?

I have a FBL that gives credit for holds, and I've tried to figure it out (without looking it up)

Josh made up his mind he was gonna swing at strike two before it ever left the mound. Not good enough josh. Not good enough.

so you do know what that means! it's not hypocritical but i shouldnt have retaliated. like i said, i felt antagonized, and i retaliated (which i apologize for doing so, and calling you an a-hole) but i dont initiate it. i shouldnt have retaliated, but instigating by an unfounded generalization lead to it. anyways, i apologize for my part in this

" If a reliever comes into a game to protect a lead, gets at least one out and leaves without giving up that lead, he gets a hold."

Knew Josh was not going to get another good pitch to put in the upper deck.
