Shit. Young scares the shit out of me..

Rod just said if Hamilton steals 2nd he'd walk Young and pitch to Cruz.

Or he could have left Coke in there, seeing as though he used to be a starter.

Radio mentioned they are worried about having everyone in the bullpen with a high pitch count.

I'd guess that's why Coke got cut off at 28 pitches.

Come on fat guy..

 

[manchild98]

Avila eats that one. No throw attempt.

 

[tigermud]

Texas is going to have steal 500 steal attempts this year I think

 

[Mitchrapp]

Do you walk him with 2 strikes.

 

[manchild98]

Do you walk him with 2 strikes.

This is one of those hindsight questions. I'd pitch to him. Valverde is supposed to be your horse too.

Day off tomorrow with the light hitting Mariners coming to town......let some of these guys throw multiple innings.

 

[manchild98]

Nice job Papa Grande.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Whew..

You said....You want Leyland fired because he's not trying to change how Jackson is hitting the ball.

The point is he's HITTING THE BALL! You don't mess with a guy who's biggest problem has been making contact.

FFS...

Half(8) of his hits came in that first series again Boston. Boston hasn't exactly been mowing em down with that staff this year. My point is that to me it seems like he's going back to last years swing(minus the leg lift). I'd just like to see him stay on top of the ball more and take a little off the swing. Maybe finally learn to drag bunt for situations like that last ab.

 

[tigermud]

Can we please score a f'en run now. please..

 

[manchild98]

I really, really, really want us to win this game.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Need a surprise home run. Maybe Kelly?

Jackson isn't the main problem right now, he's much improved and no longer the automatic out he was last year. it's the rest of the team not getting it done.

Jhonny Boy, Donny freakin Kelly, and Little Buddy due up...

Wonder what the Vegas odds are...

 

[kalinecountry]

If we don't score and end this, top of the 11th inning we could see the new # 54 Thad Weber.

 

[tigermud]

JP doesn't have a HR yet this year.

 

[Mitchrapp]

What the hell, fkn Inge.

 

[tigermud]

And still does''t these f'en first pitch hacks are really pissing me off.
