How does Martinez look? Fine way to start your MLB career, come in with a man on and Beltre at the plate, get an inning-ending DP.
Not bad. He's got good movement on his fastball. I'm guessing he throws the 2 seam variety. His slider has been effective as well.
Not to diminish the accomplishment, but beltre smoked that ball and Dominguez made a slick backhanded pick a step or so to his right.
Astros load the bases with no outs and chase Holland. Some Ranger schlub coming in.
That's Cy Schlub to you.
Gidp Schlub, apparently.
Springer is now behind in the USA Today MiLB POY vote that ends tonight. Seriously folks, get off your asses and vote Springer!!! Link in the TZ at http://www.spikesnstars.com/forums/index.php?topic=116061.msg480246#msg480246
Marwin definitely has a strong arm.
2 guys hit and Washington hasn't pulled him? what an asshole.
I love the fact that the rangers get time to warm up a pitcher.
I wish someone would step up with a big hit and put these fuckers down.
If that's more than just a cut on his face the Astros will have to call up another rookie catcher.
How does Elmore feel about Wallace's at-bat?
is anyone on this team the epitome of selectivity?
There's a joke there. Either that or a tragedy.
me no feel good about this inning.
You feeling low?
Just think about Brad and all will feel good.
I thought in the shift that the shortstop didn't still play shortstop.
Thinking about Brad has not helped the Astros at all these past 3 seasons.
Brocail is telling them not to be to down when they blow this game too.
I guess that would make it a Lo blow.
Stassi sent to the hospital for further observation. That's too bad.
Astros will be getting on a plane after this game. I wonder what that means for Stassi.
they beat the Astros not winning the world series. I hope they lose it all.
You just beat the worst team in baseball, again, and you act like it's the World Series. Pitiful.
you said it much better than I did, but that is what I meant.
I fucking hate the Mariners.
Do like that they kept fighting after getting down by 2 runs late.
For such an overmatched team, they don't think overmatched most of the time.
I'm not saying I hope the Rangers go into their locker room tonight and crotch critters have infested their clothes but they put them on anyway before they realize they are there and then sewer rats attack them and eat off all of their gentalia trying to eat the crotch critters and the players beat each other into unconsciousness with bats trying to kill the sewer rats but you never know what might happen.
And then they get swept by the Mariners. And the same thing happens to their fans.
He's down by 3% now.
That pisses me off... A lesser candidate winning means we just got our asses handed to us... The fact that it was the natural heir apparents to the rightful forced move-to-the-AL team only makes it sting worse...
