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

I really think he was safe, but they shouldn't overturn it when it's that close

There was an angle they showed that made him look out, and another that made him look safe. I think when the call is that close it is best not to overturn it.

That's exactly why I say that. Might get him pouting.

Not disagreeing. But at some point in life - and granted he's only been here for a few weeks in the grand scheme - he can't just dictate that HE gets to play 1st base each and every day or else I'll pout.

Choice was not looking for anything inside. That completely caught him off guard. Oh well, he would've never caught up to it unless he was sitting on it.

I'm not disagreeing. Just pointing out why benching him might not work.

Not surprised that our networks would show favorable replays for our respective teams.

and I'm getting the Mariner feed, ha.

I would bat him 4th first and if that doesn't work, sit him down. Something has to be done.

Is it me, or has Martin been K'ing an excessive amount these last few games?

 

[seahawksfan234]

Stunned that the Mariners first man up actually got a base hit.

Not just you. I agree.

Actually I think we're agreeing. Just from differing angles or perceptions. It might very well be best to let this play out for weeks and weeks. After all, it's not like he's not seeing the ball well. It's the results I'm having a difficult time with.

Like I said, this isn't meant from a punishment/banishment standpoint.

It's a good thing MM is there and not Fielder.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Disgusting to think that Almonte has been the Mariners lead off hitter for a majority of the season.

 

[romeo212000]

Gotta put that in your pocket Elvis.

....Life is a matter of perspective after all.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Mariners caught a break there. Unlikely anything materializes out of it though. I think you guys are better off just pitching to Corey Hart. He has 4 HR, but is only hitting .246 currently and Seager has been on fire these past few games.

 

[romeo212000]

I think I'd rather face hart.

 

[darrylgann]

Should of held on to the ball, Elvis.

 

[Justinkm83]

What? Why in the F would you walk Hart to get to someone that kills the Rangers. L L doesn't mean shit here.


How about bringing in a righty to face Hart

 

[darrylgann]

Nice Mav moment there!

 

[seahawksfan234]

I was wondering the same thing. Hart is 0-3 today and is .246 on the year. Seager has started off really slow this year but has been on fire the past few games.

This is the Mariners and he is now behind 0-2 so it'll probably work out fine for the Rangers.
