Series Thread: Your Texas Rangers at the Seattle Mariners 4/25 - 4/27

Did teams just recently start putting the shift on against Prince or something?

If it's news, it's old news.

If it's news, it's old news.

I'm just thinking prince had to have been beating shifts before this year while putting those numbers up, but the shift is killing him right now.

 

[romeo212000]

Hopefully that's not all Hernandez needs.

 

[romeo212000]

I'm sorry.....but a guy who refuses to do anything other than hit where guys are standing makes me nuts.

Maybe that's part of the fucking reason he should be hitting 4th, behind Beltre. Don't know if this helps, but it sure can't hurt.

He needs to be hitting fourth but there's no convincing wash. That coke must've fucked with his head too much.

 

[donaldson79]

Colby's got em popping up.

 

[romeo212000]

Colby's fastball is flat so far. That's no Bueno.

Surely, surely he has. But part - a big part actually - is he's hitting the ball on the ground and this has me a little concerned. He's gotta have lift and he isn't having any of it right now.

 

[romeo212000]

Colby better dig deep cause he's pitching like he's at a home run derby right now.

You're scaring me Colby

That's been better lately, but I see what you're saying. His bat speed looks the same to me, so has he changed his mechanics at all or something?

 

[donaldson79]

Seattle hit 3 balls which could have been homers (one was) and yet Colby really got out of the inning rather nicely. He's a "pitcher" in the grandest sense of the word.

I forgot to record the game. What did I miss in the first inning? I'm assuming Fielder hit into a DP

AGREED......just hope he gets that upper cut going and damn soon.

He better not count on that luck the rest of the game.

Fielder got screwed by the shift again. Colby is trying to pitch batting practice so far, but got out with only a lead off solo shot.

Quite and an assumption there sir. And ever so correctly I may add.

 

[DT LUNA]

Good AB Adrian

 

[romeo212000]

Hernandez is tired of Beltre owning him. Awesome at bat.

 

[romeo212000]

Make em pay Mitch.

 

[darrylgann]

Come on Mitch
