Rangers 2012

Fox 4 was saying he dissed the fans by not tipping his hat when Ron pulled him in the 6th. They then said he didn't know it was a custom to do so.

Yeah I don't think he knew about that. I didn't take it as a diss. Also, when the fans were cheering "YYYYUUUUUU" I'm sure he could have taken it as booing.

I am sure he is used to hearing YUUUUUU.

I thought kinsler cut off talks until the off-season. I guess money does talk! I'm happy!

I thought it was just Hamilton.

Big fucking deal.

Sky is still falling, Darvish is a bust.

That move was dumb when the Rangers made it, it's dumb today, and it's going to be dumb at the end of the season. I think it's the first time that Daniels has really put a foot wrong since the John Danks trade. I just don't see why the Rangers thought they needed him.

I don't think it's really going to be consequential to the Rangers' season, but I don't think he's going to pan out at all. Big waste of money even if he does a passable job.

At least that trade was in the heat of a pennant race and got ride of some other dead weight. And as mentioned above, he had a decent (if inconsequential) outing the other night.

I don't want to be a negative nancy here, but I foresee Feldman taking Feliz's spot in the rotation at some point these season. I guess we'll learn a lot tomorrow night.

I'm having trouble distinguishing from your posts if you're really a Rangers fan or if you're just a hater.

The first post was obviously sarcastic. I'm pretty sure the second one was too. Don't know on the rest.

Why would you say he is a hater? The first two are sarcastic, and the rest are just opinions on what he thinks should or should have happened. Every fan has their opinions on moves from the front office.

Very true.

Apparantly he told his agent he didnt care if he handled it behind the scenes as long as he didnt hear about it. I think they were so close that they decided to just finish the talks. Im sure Kinslers hot start helped boost the Rangers into action as well

I thought it was readily apparent that the first two reeked of sarcasm. These threads over the past few years have been full of people crying foul at the slightest hint of trouble, and I was poking at that.

The rest were just discussions of the bad moves that the organization has made recently. Don't get me wrong, I think all in all the organization has quite obviously done an incredible job, but the discussion was around poor moves at the moment. Daniels orchestrated one of the great trades in the history of baseball and I think he's done a great job so far, for what it's worth.

Feliz doesn't look super sharp, but he's getting it done so far, albeit against the Mariners. Off speed pitches have been everywhere from awful to nasty so far, I'm interested to see if he can start locating them better.

Looking at the gamescast here (AFN sucks ass again) he seems to be settling into a rhythm and not throwing quite so many pitches to get guys out.

amen!

Locating everything better, off-speed looking sharper. His season hinges on his ability to dial in that slurvey thing and his changeup.

I'm curious to see if he can maintain the velocity on that fastball.

my wife gave me a day pass.



I am not worried about the first few innings with Feliz. I am worried about inning 5 and anything after that.
