Series Thread: Your Texas Rangers at the Colorado Rockies 5/5 - 5/6

See there Texas, you can get these guys out.

Never mind that

Tulo and Cargo treat our pitching like batting practice...

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Now we know how the Astros feel...

 

[Justinkm83]

Extra base hits is the reason COL scores runs and we don't. We have a good average compare to other AL teams but we don't get extra base hits.

Might as well laugh. Crying has not helped

They also take advantage of sub-par pitching...

Yep

 

[Justinkm83]

We just could not have caught any team at a worse time. I don't remember ever seeing a team hit this over and over. They have scored in almost every inning it seems like. Double after double followed by a blooper and a HR

It looks like it doesn't matter where the Rockies play, they are going to hit. Or is it they just like our pitching.

I'd say you're pretty right with that assessment.

Hi Everyone, well....is our pitching that bad, or is this Colorado team that good? Seems every ball we hit get's caught. I was high on Robbie thinking this was his time, but doesn't look like it. Ogando is another matter, didn't trust him last year, even less this one.

 

[Justinkm83]

That looked familiar. A whole bunch of nothing. I've braced myself for a 4 game sweep here.

And they may be the third best team in the NL West.

And a 8 pitch inning for us. Great.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Well we showed em!!! An 8 pitch inning, he may have started to sweat!

 

[Justinkm83]

I don't care about this guys pitch count. Go out there and hit the first one you like. Our approach isn't working, and this guy has an ERA over 5. We might as well go out swinging.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

What's so god damn hard about getting the 3rd out?????

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

I hope Moreland is available tonight for more BP duty. Looks like he'll be needed...Colby already at 40 after 2.

 

[darrylgann]

Come pitch against Texas where anyone can appear to be a Cy Young!

Disagree.....our problem is exactly this IMO. Everyone doing something different.

The few guys who do see pitches - like Choo - then life is better. If not, hell we might as well just hung on to Pierzynski and let him have his usual 7 pitches a game.
