A little more work?

The guy has tossed what 150 innings so far this year.

I think he's a "Japanese" Nolan Ryan.

Great fastball, but will always have issues locating it.

I think other teams have learned that you need to wait-him-out.

He's still not consistent though. He'll be fine and I trust him but you can't deny he has hid bad starts and innings more than an ace should. Because of that, he still needs some work.

OT a bit but, i wonder how Trout can win the MVP when his team will be hovering around .500 and fighting off the mariners for the last place in the division?

Angels need to stay away from the playoffs though, no matter how bad they're playing they have the NY giants written all over them.

Weaver/Grienke/Haren/Wilson rotation and Pujols/Trout in the lineup? I can see that team making a run if they get in, lol.

Gotta agree, beat the Angels down and keep them out of the playoffs.

Detroit can be dangerous also, if playing well.

You do realize he is throwing a different ball (size, texture, weight, and density) than he has thrown his entire life? Yu didn't have control issues before switching balls / leagues. I don't think there is any question that Yu needs more time to adjust to the Major League baseball.

Dempster with a good outing. Exactly what we need from him. And everybody is making good contact. Looking strong for the home stretch. Angela are 9.5 and the As are 5 and losing tonight. Looking good right now.

I have been trying to figure this out all day. Who is face? Hamilton or Young?

Why do the rangers give up the early lead in seemingly every game?

Young. He is also known as PADMY (past a diving Michael Young).

Normally its what the Orioles do. And its because the pitching sux early on.

Beltre w/ 3 HR's already

 

[cowboyeric8]

Beltre is going all Hamilton on the O's right now. Haha. 3 homers right now, I'm hoping he can get one more.

Beltre is soiling some couches tonight! Good times. If this team can just put together the pitching, hitting and fielding look out.

Good to see Moreland's second grandslam wasn't taken off the board like his first one was.

Yeah that non-game was so weird. The make up game was the one with the fan who fell out of the stands, which wouldn't have happened if the it would have been completed the first time because the boy originally went with his mom.

 

[RastaRocket]

Just incredible what Beltre and Hamilton did vs. the O's.

 

[cowboyeric8]

Beltre hits for the cycle, and Harrison was excellent having a no hitter through 6.2 winning 8-0
