Series Thread: Texas at Cincy 6/14-16

Cabrera has struggled at times at the plate but he sure can play "D". Accurate arm. Nice throw by Roogie as well.

It was absurd some of the comments about Chavez after giving up his 1st run since April 30th and then he comes right back out and pitches his brains out. The guy has been a workhorse. Started the season off bad but got it together. I know it was frustrating to lose on a based loaded walk but him and Martin have looked really good.
Now the comments about Odor and Guzman I can understand.

Emotions sometimes get out of control and I think that was the case with Chavez. Pretty sure some of those comments were just blowing off steam.

Good at bats by the big stink tonight.

I said he didnt look good, he didnt and he walked in the winning run. I didnt say to DFA him and I said I hoped he would get back to the form he had during the scoreless streak and he looked great tonight and so did Martin. Just because some here post incessantly about some players doesn't mean that if anyone posts something critical about a player that they are bashing them. Every player is gonna have an off night, it's baseball.

Wasn't just one person, so I doubt his comments were directed at you

I would rather play federovisz or whatever his name is over some of our other catchers who are black holes.

I didn't mention any names. Comment though was "Chavez back to early season form". Even if you are right throw something positive in there about him as well. I think DT is right though in that we just get irritated with the way we lose some of these games so it is a comment in a moment of frustration. I know I get frustrated by a couple of our players.

Exactly.

Bullpen is doing well tonight, the recipe looks good so far.

 

[Nightcrawler]

Well on our way to #1, but I’d really like to take 2 from the reds.

Going 4-3 on this road trip would be great. I’m sick of hearing the “we suck on the road” stuff.

Doesn't it seem like the BP game turns out well more often that not in the MLB? Not sure why.

Can't say it any more

Maybe less pressure or guys getting their innings without men on base, whatever it is, it seems to be working out for the Rangers lately

Might be and knowing their role for the night could help. It is not get up and warm up then do not need you and sit back down and then get back up and warm up again. Not sure but liked it so far tonight.

At Globe life park but not watching Rangers game. Oops

Gallo might have caught that one

3 walks and a grand slam, Roogie deserves a little credit tonight

At least 4 runs worth
