FU Hamilton

Rod called that one wrong. He talked about maybe trying to sneak something by Hamilton inside.

 

[spockmaster]

go snort some blow instead of hitting homers, asshole. make sure you take your cokehead manager with you.

It wasn't far enough inside.

 

[tomdalton22]

that didn't take long!

Smyly pitching 1st inning,

kinsler comes out as a f'n whinebag first two strike calls on the corner, now a full count, grounder deep behind third and Cabrera gloves it, plants the feet, and throws a bullet to Kelly at first,

hotdogandrus gets 2 quick strike calls and he whines, Smyly pitches down and in makes the beardedmumza move his feet, grounder to Peralta,

hamilton fouls one, check swing strike appeal 3rd base ump, fouls another, comes inside but not low or in enough and hit deep to right homerun,

young with a strike call, bounces in, fouled back, ground single through the left side,

ffcruz fouls it back, fastball misses, strike call an inch closer to the corner black, chases a nice changeup,

Smyly with 24 pitches, few too many.

Was Cruz just staring down Smyly after he K'd? What a piece of shit he is.

most of them are, full of themselves and all the nuthugging press clippings

 

[spockmaster]

ive come to hate the rangers just as much as the bosox, yankees, white sox, twins, and indians.

 

[manchild98]

AJ is just hitting stuff hard.

Love to see the power from Jackson continue.

 

[amajjd]

2009 Ramon only STARTED 73 games.
2010 Ramon only STARTED 79 games.
2011 Ramon only STARTED 62 games.

All those other things you're counting are games where he either PH, or was a defensive replacement.

So like I said, he's a backup for a reason. Only 1 time in his career has he started more then half a seasons games, 2003, in which he hit .225 :lmao:

You got me there. Your right

As for the sneaky power, I was at the game last year when he hit the walk off HR.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Good ab for BB. Now get a hit.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Darn it.

 

[mjsb2]

Boesch Ks after fouling off ball 4 a few pitches before.

 

[spockmaster]

nope, strikeout. gotta love that .210 with no obp in front of cabrera.

Way too close to let it go.

 

[lonesometiger]

I thought about that too, but Leyland seems to want him as long man.

Can't argue with that he's done though, hope he can keep it up.

Your right with he has done. But,You Darn right I can ARGUE with how he been used. Look when your in as a long man then your team is either losing badly or there been an injury. Injury not going to happen too often. Losing badly, why,why waist a good pitcher on a lost game!?

Below throws 6+ good innings then IMO he needs to be starting. Putting a good pitcher in a nightmare lost game is really a bad managering job. That where a Schlereth/Balester pitches. BTW you only need one throw away pitcher.
