14-4 huh? That sounds really impressive until you notice they played the following teams...
Cubs (75-87)
Brewers (77-85)
Marlins (80-82)
Pirates (57-105)
Astros (76-86)
Wow. Not a winning team among them. That 14-4 don't mean a damn thing.
And you still have given me a reason your pitching is "just as good" when you're gonna throw Tommy Hunter out there. No mention of the bullpens either?
I think you're the one in for the eye-opener.
Yeah, it may not mean a whole lot, but I don't think the rangers are going to be "scared" of putting their pitchers in the line up. their # 4 man did basically nothing both series so far anyway (excluding game 6). Having the line up be Andrus, Young, Hamilton, Nelson, Kinsler is going to look a whole hell of a lot better than Andrus, Young, Hamilton Vlady, lol. Nelson>>>>>Vlady right now, dude is lights out, and it will be lights out San Fran. Its actually going to HELP the team, lets see you walk hamilton with Neslon behind him:laugh2: San fran is screwed bud, its going to be a masacre, little timmy lincecum is going to be crying and its going to scare your 2-4 pitchers and they are going to fold to nerves, series over. Tommy Hunter will be our #4 pitcher and yeah he won't be lights out like our 1,2,3 but that should not matter considering San Fran can't hit anywhere near what NY can.
As for bullpens, idk, san fran may have the advantage, too bad it does not matter when your 1-3 can go 8-9 every night and you have holland who can come in with hunter and shut it down. Also got Feliz who will be a solid closer, especially, again, against weaker hitting. Your hitting scares no one.
You are in for quite the eye opener. The Rangers were 14-4 against the national league this year. I am sure they are terrified of playing against a team that has just as good starting pitching as they have just seen and even worse hitting. You wish it was a coin flip, SF would have a much better chance that way.
