Series Thread: Rangers/White Sox 4/22-4/24

[WastinSomeTime]

Yes, they are, but we've not faced a hitting team like TX.

I was really concerned how we would fare against yall's lineup (AL leaders). Haven't been disappointed, so far, but the Sox's bats have been anemic. Bottom of the list in O stats, so far, but we're kinda used to that. It's sad.

On the reverse side the Rangers were leading the AL in starting pitching based on stats supplied to us the other day.

Melky and Lawrie being your hot bats is kinda disturbing, one would think

Yup ... actually Melky & Adam Eaton are the only ones hitting the ball well.

I posted some sorry assed stats a couple days ago on our board ... nearly half our starting lineup is up close & personal with Mr. Mendoza. Pee-thetic.

Thought Frazier had been heating up the last few games.

Maz has cooled off, obviously we didnt expect him to keep up that pace

Long ball or famine, it seems.

He's been one of our Mendoza boyz.

Yeah I thought i noticed a bunch of averages starting with the .1-- in your lineups lately

Obviously. He'll adjust pretty quickly I would imagine.

 

[Bmurph]

Babip, I will take it AB

now how about a WP or passed ball

 

[Bmurph]

Can we PH for Prince here?

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Get a bloop hit to LF.

 

[romeo212000]

Yes, but we won't. He's actually been great with RISP.

It's maddening when you've had the stellar starting pitching (and BP to back it up) the last couple years, and your FO doesn't make the right moves to get some hitting.

Stuff like this:

Adam Dunn
Adam LaRoche
Todd Frazier yet

I certainly know how Seattle fans have felt for years, now.

He's gonna be fun to watch make adjustments, exciting young player

 

[WastinSomeTime]

To me the stats like those against Duke are meaningless as the NL and AL Prince are different players.

 

[romeo212000]

I think it's time for a day off for Prince, Banny.

That was us last year at the beginning.

He seldom rests Prince. Moreland is always the odd man out.

He can fuck right off right now though
