Rangers vs Second to LASTROS.

[saddles]

Actually I've think there's been 3 other teams who's had 59, and we'll have to go to 60 to break it.

But it's splitting hairs b/c we'll smoke 60 too.

Watkins is reporting that we have tied it at 59. Padres did it twice and Cleveland once. But then, that is Calvin Watkins. We will blaze right by that though.

And it only took like 20 injuries to make it happen...

Nah. He would have been called up anyways. Adduci's injury sped it up 3 days.

 

[Justinkm83]

After the year he has had I would definitely say he is ready.

I've been saying they should call him for awhile. Carp is a waste of a spot. Rua may not succeed, but at least we'll have a better feel for him. If he does then we have an asset.

Yeah I figured it would be Sept 1 as well. There was no rush, but now that Jim is on the DL why not.

Rua will tie the major league record for 58th player to play for Texas this year. When Holland starts next Tuesday he will break the record at 59. Go Rangers!!

Now I'm depressed

I noticed this morning he was 4-5 w/ a triple and 4 RBI's last night. Hoying was 4-4 and a BB.

Here is something more depressing...Texas could win the next 29 games and still only be .500.

Now I'm depressed

It took that many?

[donaldson79]

Perfect run and hit there....way to go EA

 

[romeo212000]

That is what Elvis needs to be doing.

 

[romeo212000]

Dumb Elvis. Dumb.

 

[donaldson79]

Why on earth?

 

[romeo212000]

Why on earth?

There's a difference between being aggressive and stupid.

 

[donaldson79]

Now that one would have gotten him to 3rd - or more - very easily.

 

[donaldson79]

There's a difference between being aggressive and stupid.

No argument here.....That was totally stupid

Life is tough but it's a lot tougher when you're stupid.......The DUKE

 

[donaldson79]

For just the 1st inning, there have already been some odd and good plays too.

 

[DT LUNA]

Back to back hits. Good job Choice and Robertson.
