Texas vs Minny: Friday the 13th edition

Was going to correct this to Nap

That's what I meant.

Yeah like romeo said, he's been off and on so far. He's the early scapegoat for a lot of our fans this year(especially being the new guy). I like him I just don't think he should be closing. I lived in MN for several years and remember how good he was in his prime. If I had a 2nd favorite team, the Twins would be it so I always hope they do well. I'm hoping I can watch the game tomorrow through the Twin's broadcast, I miss hearing ol' Bert Blylevin. Y'alls commentary team is way better than ours.

I just checked out his stats for the year (Ouch!), I didn't realize he has had such a rough start. Hopefully he settles in a little bit and gets down to business.
Where in MN did you live?

so is everyone on here nervous about nathan yet?

at least we have ogando or adams if he stinks

I know, that is why I facepalmed myself. I read it as Young the first time, then remembered that Nap's first name is Mike as well. Always just call him Nap

Nope, I think he will come in focused and do well.

He's been filthy when he's been on. It's early and Rivera and Valverde have had ugly outings already. I'm willing to give him time to get settled in.

 

[Stinky Britches]

at least he is throwing strikes lol

strikes that are hit but we will see

Alexandria & St Cloud

Kinsler is the man! This is the year he puts it all together.

 

[Stinky Britches]

I should have saved my call for Ian.

He starts hot a lot. But I went with Moreland.

heck yeah, he got paid and wants to earn it. Good kid.

 

[jrs21]

I'll bet Nathan hopes he doesn't have to face Mauer, its gonna be tough to surprise him after Mauer caught for him for 7 years.

I'm hoping he gets some work tonight. Needs to get back on the right track after his last outing.

Is this the season that Matt has a breakout year? He seems to be criminally underrated by us Rangers fans. He had a great season last year and seems to be on the same track so far.

Yeah, we were just talking earlier in the thread about how he isn't on tonight. He's only put up 7 innings of 1run ball. What a chump!

He is quietly maybe the rangers most consistent pitcher.

 

[Stinky Britches]

this is the season our rotation is top two in the AL

at least

Hang on tonight and our starters are 6-0 in 8 tries. Only other team without a loss in their starting rotation is AZ who are 3-0.

Agreed. The only real knock on him last year was he kind of ran out of gas at the end of the year. That shouldn't be a problem this time. I think he'll lead the team in ERA, book it.

OT: the Standard insurance chick is scary. Back in the day she was pretty easy on the eyes, now she is frightening.

Still better than
