I'd normally agree but he really came through in the 2005 post season. But then again that was 5 years ago.

 

if you want to base things off of 2005 performance freddy would be a SP for us this year. obviously you have to go with whoever is hottest. i would also try to go LRLR or RLRL...

Based on what we've seen so far, what would our ideal rotation be if we were to make the playoffs?

 

Danks

Floyd

Jackson

Buehrle

Too bad the Twins destroyed Cliff Lee today.

I wish Freddy would teach Edwin the splitter. I think that would be a ridiculous wipeout pitch if he added it.

His slider acts a lot like a splitter.

Cowley: Vizquel left the game with an upset stomach. Day to day.

Rangers trying to make a late rally. Down 6-1 with a couple runners on in the 7th.

Most pitchers that throw splitters lose their gas.

He should do what Chan Ho Park did earlier in the year.

Alexei got screwed there. Strike 1 was a ball.

I think KW cries poor just for the hell of it. As far as I know, JR is the money guy. Read this quote, JR hasn't mentioned anything about a lack of money but KW is looking for loose change:

 

Whenever I've talked to (Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf), it's less about money even though we are stretched right now," Williams said, speaking in general terms. "We are stretched, and quite frankly we're looking at walkups every day to see exactly what we're going to have available to us. But he certainly hasn't given me any reason to think there are any restrictions right now on dollars."

Too bad the Twins destroyed Cliff Lee today.

i mentioned this early today but i will repeat. cliff told the rangers he was gassed in the 6th inning of his start a few games ago (v yankees). previously he had 8 or more innings a number of games in a row. he is exhausted right now and the rangers may sit him a few starts down the stretch to get him refreshed.

Chipping away in Arlington. 6-2

Gordon with a forgettable night.

Jackson + Cooper = f*** Yeah

i am not sure if copper had anytning to do with it but he sure looks a lot better than peavy

Right now, he looks better than just about everybody.

The dude's definitely been a HUGE bonus for this team. Been pretty damn impressive.

0.96 ERA in the AL so far works.

ERA of a dozen...

Sweet, power from Rios!

If his power stroke is back we are going to have a fun September.

Who gets the 9th? Harrell?

Rangers cut into the lead. Now 6-4 in the 8th.
