Series Thread: Your Texas Rangers at the L.A. Angels 5/2 - 5/4

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Well let's hope this game gets Fielder, JPA, and Elvis going! Choice and Choo had awesome game, and hopefully Yu is out of his funk! Good game Rangers!!

JPA just said that he hasnt been worried about his slump because he's been hitting the ball hard every time this whole year.

fuckin joke

Good news. Ross and Perez are going in Colorado, so we should be able to keep the ball on the ground.

Good news indeed.

Yeah....hard not to call a bullshit on that one, isn't it?

BUT.....he did finally have a good day with the bat. He could have very easily tattered twice.

The game is being played again on FSST for those who might have missed the first one.

Someone was mentioning that they were concerned about Colby in CO. Was it Terps?

Anyway, I'm happy to see it's these two starting in the mountain air. And I think both of these guys were more disappointed than us with their last starts, so maybe combining seeing how Yu hung tough today, and recent memory, will allow them to nail the Rockies.

I'm trying hard not to let one game get me wound-up. But Lordy, I'm happy to see the bats be swinging.

Yeah....I went out to run an errand and came back....Walla. And ya know, if I were a huge Mavs fan and was married to the dismal game 7 today, I'd appreciate this. Good programming move on FSSW part.

Did I ever tell ya I was part of HSE, which has morphed itself into FSSW? Fun time. Good money too. And a long time ago as well.

Then again, what ain't?

It was me, but I saw the matchups and realized Colby would be facing the Rockies in Arlington instead.

Well, had Colby been on the hill up there, your fears would have been well founded IMO. But alas, it was not to be.

Now if we can go out and hit well in CO, and then come home for 5, life might just be good.

I think Wash was more worried about Colby and Harry batting than pitching in Colorado. Both coming off surgeries.

That was great, all around.
Fielder, Choice. (I don't worry about EA and Beltre)

Alright!

Alright!

I don't worry about Beltre, but EA is a different story. That contract is looking like a mistake right now.

Pretty small sample size to be worrying about a 7+ year deal.

I agree, but that's why I said right now. Don't get me wrong I like EA, but I'd like him to hit better than .270 w/ 0-5 HR's a year.

 

[Justinkm83]

I guess he's only making 6-7 this year, but still

I'm not worried about his homers that much. 5-10 is plenty for me with good doubles numbers and 30+ stolen bases and slick defense will make that contract worth it.

Very good point.

Hope so because Colorado has been on an offensive roll lately. Until today that is.

And he did not want Yu to bat.
