QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 08:43 PM) Hill has a slightly higher OPS, same number of HR's, more RBI's, much higher batting average, and doesn't get to play in Arlington. Kinsler has more SB's. Hill's OPS+ is 2% better than Kinsler's. Not all that impressive. Even with Kinsler's easy to hit in ballpark, Hill isn't much better than him offensively. Hill may be having the slightly better year thus far, but Kinsler is clearly the better 2B in the long run.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 08:34 PM) You say that as if Aaron Hill is having that much better of a year than Kinsler. He really isn't. Outside of Kinsler's power and slugging, he's been pretty bad this year. Hill is having a career year. He's already had his breakout year. So Kinsler being kind of bad almost equals Aaron Hill playing over his head. I'd say Kinsler wins.

I would totally take that deal right now.

At least they made it close. If this was a blowout, I'm sure Ozzie would of had a big old tirade. We had chances in the middle of this game to go ahead and tie. We just didn't take advantage.

QUOTE (Cali @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 04:30 PM) Wise in Left Now? So an automatic out leads off the inning instead of Nix who has proven he can make solid contact.... Nice Ozzie.... That just makes no sense at all...

Eric Wedge finally got smart and brought in Wood.

Now Joe Smith is going to own us.

Why can't we hit Betancourt? Every other team does.

I'd like for it to be Poreda. But I see Colon getting the chance.

Did we just get a 1-2-3 inning?

This doesn't look good... Betancourt is warming. Not only do we not hit him, but he takes forever.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:50 PM) I doubt Paulie would have been bunting. Of course not.

Finally got a leadoff man out. Wow.

If only Dotel didn't give up that run in the 6th. Our style of play in that last inning might have been a bit different.

Is D.J. Carrasco still the best pitcher on this staff Ozzie?

Does this remind anyone of that 20-1 game we lost to Minny on a day very similar to this?

Getz probably would have been safe if he slid.

15 pages of posts and we're in the second inning. You already know something has gone really wrong.

Is it that f***ing hard to throw strikes?

If it's only 6-2 by the end of this inning, I'll be happy and we're still in this game.

We suck so much on getaway days.

This is f***ing ridiculous.

I think Clayton needs to go back to Charlotte.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 01:39 PM) Great, D.J. up in the pen. He's been crap lately. So glad we have Poreda. At least DJ can get some outs.
