I like Darin Erstad...really, I do. But he's killing me.
Perhaps Coach, if he's watching, can chime in, but Backe looks awfully stiff to me. Very straight up, not bending his back. He doesn't look comfortable.
You think change is in order?
He's on pace for 9.
I can't see what he's bringing to the table right now. On the field at least. There are certain guys that you keep around for other reasons. Guys who are good for the club even when they're not playing well, as the saying goes. Not sure if Erstad is one of those guys or not.
The live video available on MLB At Bat for iPhone is pretty damned impressive when connected to wifi. 3G, eh.
I get the sense that he's an "above-average" clubhouse guy, if that's what you mean, but yeah... he might be near the end of the line. I suppose Abercrombie would be the guy you'd call up to be an extra outfielder?
Well now, doesn't look like the pre-game clubhouse meeting had any effect on this team.
Time for the Rome karma to kick in......allegedly.......for Lance and his teammates.
Was cattle stampeding involved, Noe?Clarification: JIM Rome.
So, has anyone mentioned the significance of the Rangers deciding to wear battle red for this series? I've never seen these unis before, so I wonder what this is all about.
Why would the Rangers want to copy the Houston Texans?
It's all Wright now, baby.
DL / DH same difference...
that's just ridiculous
Educate the basketball guy. Do you pinch run for Carlos here?
In a tie game in the 7th at the Ballpark in Arlington? That'd be about as silly as bunting over one of the leagues fastest players with none out in the 7th in a tie game at the Ballpark in Arlington...
"Kill my landlord."
you can hold'em wesley
cute hit hunter.
where the fuck was that when the bases were drunk?
the pressure was too much for him in that situation.
Nice Tombstone reset.
Atta boy Michael! (Honorable mention there to Q!)
god i love michael bourn
I saw Arias waving a towel over Q. Homeboy looked ready to have a coronary.
why didn't arias come back out to pitch?
3rd gidp by kinslerand hh why did hawkins come out and not arias.
That right there is the reason I have no nails on either big toe.
...and why I will never eat again during GZ. Sweet Jesus.
wow, nice play miggy
so was that steal
Nah, that run means squat.
would get them closer to tying the game, it means something
And if he reaches base?
cooper wanted to apologize
unacceptable
Worrell reports that Backe left with a blister.
worrell?
Forget it, she's rolling.
