Series Thread: Texas vs Arizona Sneaky Snakes

Nice to see the effort from Elvis on the bases.

 

[RevSader]

Don't gimme that OLEY bullshit.

 

[romeo212000]

What the fuck? How do we completely abandon our approach from the first inning that we were getting hits with?

 

[donaldson79]

A solid #3 will tickle me to death. Don't look for him to ever be #2.

IMO, he's pretty much incapable of being a # 2. But I'd settle - be very happy with it too - if he was a solid # 4, and sometimes acted like a number 3.

 

[RevSader]

I like Goldy more than most of the people on the Rangers roster...

 

[RevSader]

Hell, I like Trumbo a lot more than most of the Rangers right now...

 

[RevSader]

Good 2 strike pitch that time.

 

[donaldson79]

Now that was truly a nicely pitched inning.

Walks Goldy - semi-on purpose I think - then K's to end the inning.

 

[RevSader]

Beltre hit that one harder than the D'Backs did that whole inning though.

 

[romeo212000]

I love Beltre!

 

[RevSader]

Beltre does it all.

 

[RevSader]

Also why must Choo get raped by the strike zone? He sucks enough without having to be brutalized like that...

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Tired of Choo being shafted by the umps. That strike 2 put him in a defensive mode.

 

[RevSader]

That was really bad defense.

 

[romeo212000]

Pussy ass umpires. Line up over the plate. Quit hiding behind the catcher.

 

[romeo212000]

What a frustrating fucking inning.

 

[RevSader]

Think you hit the wrong button. Beltre really does do it all.

 

[RevSader]

Nice swing Tomas...

 

[RevSader]

They do not have a beat on anything Nick is throwing tonight. He has them way off kilter.

 

[romeo212000]

Interesting thing about Nick. Looking at his FIP vs ERA you might think he's just getting really lucky. You might even go as far as to think hitters are just swinging at bad pitches and they'll adjust, but Martinez really pounds the strike zone. As of yet, I don't see that there's much for hitters to adjust to.
