Texas Rangers Thread

I just took a different read on it but it wouldn't surprise me if you're right. Still, I wouldn't be too shocked if they took it as disrespectable. Generate something out of nothing just to try to get the momentum back on their side.

I wouldn't blame them if they did.

Nellie is the anti Romo. lol I kid I kid

 

[yimyammer]

Since my Phillies choked, I am rooting for the Rangers for all of their fans that are here. It would be pretty [strike]cool[/strike] AWESOME to have The Mavs and Rangers AND COWBOYS in same year. Good luck.

FYP, I'm greedy

 

[Alweezy]

Man the way they're playing maybe it's finally our year guys

watch out for Milwaulkee... just sayin', hopefully they cool off because they could probably go head to head with us offensively and their bullpen is just as nice.


However back to the celebration party!!! We still got work to do, but man it's such a nice feeling to be taking care of business. Two wins away from a pennant. They really have to not lose focus now, because you know Detroit is going to give us everything they got tommorrow.

Your pitcher just gives up a Walk off grandslam and the Tigers would be "pissed" at Cruz for watching? That'd be a reach right there to me.


They got more than enough reasons besides some lame disrespect code. In a way Feliz and Ogando have disrespected the Tigers way more than Cruz did just then. Our bullpen is just going up there throwing #1 all inning long darn near daring the batters to try to catch up to it. That's straight disrespect right there.

Gotta love being a Ranger fan right now. I remain pessimistic. I was pessimistic until the world series where I thought we would have it last year. This year I will be a pessimist until we celebrate.

Just pray for the Cardinals, the Brewers are damn near unbeatable at home

What part of you may be right...I just perceived it that way...Detroit could too...Generate something out of nothing to gain momentum...yada yada yada...etc...was I not clear about?

Besides, Cruz may very well have "admired" his salami long past the acceptable time given in their so-called baseball code. The poor guy got drilled badly in his chest in his last at-bat. Who wouldn't want to 'stick-it' to their pitcher a little bit after surviving something like that?

They need to put Holland on ice for the rest of the playoffs. He can't be trusted...the guy might be the most mentally weak player in Dallas sports right now. Last year when he fell apart in the World Series, you could just chalk that up as inexperience and jitters on the big stage. Then in the ALDS vs. Tampa, you could just say it was inexperience again as it was his first playoff start. But for him to look even worse today is a huge setback. He just doesn't have it mentally.

There one other guy in Dallas sports weaker minded

There you go bashing Dirk again...sheesh!

Let it go man.

 

[cowboyeric8]

Those of us in here enjoy a non-bashing Romo thread. This one is about baseball and the Rangers. Please leave if you are going to bring up Tony. Get a grip man.

Boomstick baby. now if only we could get josh hamilton to consistently come thru in the clutch...

I think he has been pretty consistent throughout the year and playoffs. You aren't going to get a guy winning it for you every game.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Yeah Hamilton has been solid. They've gotten contributions from almost everyone so far...the only no-shows have been Michael Young and Mitch Moreland, who is probably done at this point. If the Rangers make the World Series, Moreland is out of luck since Young will be playing 1B on the road.

Mike is ready to bust lose anytime now, he is getting good at bats, just not so many hits. He is just too good of a hitter not to have in the lineup. We are winning which is what is important. Mitch had the HR but not much else, but yes he will only pinch hit on the road if we make the series.

Mike is ready to bust lose anytime now

As I noted last night. Napoli, then Beltre, and now Cruz put the team on his back and almost won the game single-handedly. Next it will be Mike's turn.

I've got two guys from Detroit here in the office. After the Lions beat the Cowboys they felt compelled come ask me about it. (they know better than to really rub it in) I noticed they've been avoiding me after the last two games.

 

[Stautner]

he was waiting to see it if was foul. There was no reason for him to run. Foul or game over even if it was caught.

My first thought was that he was watching it, and I could understand the Tigers holding that against him, but after watching again I agree he was waiting to see if it was a fair ball or not. He should have done the Carlton Fisk dance.

 

[Air Force One]

watch out for Milwaulkee... just sayin',

They didn't look too scary last night
