Series Thread: Regarding Old Managers and A's, Rangers travel to Oakland

Thanks for Jake Thompson. Then Knebel turned into Yo, which might turn into more prospects.

It will be interesting to see what Texas does with Yo and Wandy.

Wandy cost nothing.....It's incredible. He was just picked off the scrap heap for a AAA contract...

But yeah Jon Daniels is a shitty GM for how he built this rotation....

It's amazing we have a major league rotation at all at this point.

Rev ... I think he did a pretty good job providing the resources. Don't forget that Darvish went down in camp and Holland started the season before he went out. Gallardo was the only programmed buy to fill in for Harrison and Perez. Colby was expected to nail down a spot and Nick Martinez the other. Fact that Wandy was picked off waivers and didn't cost anything is better than if it was paid for and arranged. Other teams had a shot at getting Wandy and didn't.

Fact that the team is where it is today despite further loss of Darvish and Holland is amazing.

Get your sarcasm meter checked bud.

I don't know if anyone watches college ball, but there's a damn good one going on between A&M/TCU on ESPN. It's game 3 of a best of 3.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm watching. Whoever keeps doing that weird howling shit needs to be punched in the face.

TCU's relievers fucked it so hard in the 9th. I hate relief pitchers. Guy comes in and cannot throw a damn strike. Nothing makes me more angry during a baseball game.

Oh. ... Sorry Rev.

 

[Justinkm83]

The ump is confused with the pitcher being 6'9". He's missed some strikes

 

[romeo212000]

I gave em a chance. I gotta get up at 6:00.

 

[RevSader]

Frogs gonna hop it off?

 

[RevSader]

Gonna pull this shit tomorrow when the Rangers are on?

 

[Bmurph]

Yeah, why would you not walk him?

 

[RevSader]

As soon as they bunted I knew he was getting 4 wide. Doesn't take a Ron Washington to figure that out.

 

[RevSader]

ESPN won't show the k zone. But that didn't look like a strike.

9 pm tomorrow?

Tough breaking ball but it looked in off the plate to me
