K-Mo last 8 games

5 for 31. 11 strike outs. and ZERO rbis

somebody told him he has 98 rbis

and he froze

8 games is NOTHING
His whole sept has sucked

but yes, i’m aware of his overall performance.

I just hope this doesn’t carry over into the playoffs. Pitchers seem to have him scouted down to a tee, especially when he behind the count.

ok I MIGHT buy that argument if August wasn't his BEST month by far

so Kendry had an outstanding 450 abs and then instantaneously he’s figured out and is worthless???? I doubt it. He can hit a ML fastball, he is a great off-speed hitter, dude is just expanding his zone…. maybe because he wants those 100 RBI’s really really bad I dunno. He finishes this year and the postseason off this bad and then has a bad April and May and then I’ll say the league figured him out, but also who knows if he’s fighting some kind of injury too. A player tweaks his knee or an elbow or even a finger and it can mess him up good.

very good points

i need to stop being so fickle

LETS GO HALOS

Addios folks. Gotta go sign up some future Major Leaguer’s at registration for Waipi`o LL

Are you a coach, manager or league official?

Just wondering.

Official. I take care of the website.

my avatar has retired from the game, for now. www.waipiolittleleague.org

Cool, just wondering.

I coached and managed in LL when my boys were younger, and know how tiring and thankless a job it can be. This by chance isn’t the league that made it to the Western Regionals in San Bernardino, is it?

Not this season. That was a team from Maui.

But last season we did, and then we made it to Williamsport, and then we Championed the World.

And volunteering in baseball is some of the best baseball around.

Great job volunteering eyespy, and good luck to your LL.

Aloha Brah!!!!

roll call

checking in

Is it safe to say this is probably it for the Rangers season?
No. See Mets, 2007.
I went to second to last game

THAT was a baseball game
13 runs 1 hit shutout 14 K’s by Maine
5th inning fight by Reyes
Great game

well look at these odds BEFORE this game

http://www.baseballprospectus.com/statistics/ps_odds.php

"Never tell me the odds."
who said that?
Han Solo, Empire Strikes Back
figures I didn't know it

not a Star Wars fan

Spongebob, or Peter Griffin
wow tigers are really close to losing the division.
i hope the Twins make it only so it will guarentee Mauer the MVP

screw Jeter

what kind of chances do they have against NYY

if they do indeed make it, do they have the pitching?

if you ask me the Yankee's will steamroll the winner of that division
well considering Sabathia's next good playoff start will be his first

and A-Rod chokes in the playoffs, I’d put their chances at like 30%.

Also you can always go to betting sites to get a good idea about their chances. Vegas has NO rooting interest.

Hot Wild Card teams always have a chance.

2002 comes to mind.

Twins were 5.5 games out on September 13th
i think the triple was the final nail in hte coffin
was Bulger on our playoff roster last year?
i'm down on Figgin's offense lately
Mathis, HIT THE BALL DAMN IT!!!

Or no pizza party for you.

Wrong Mathis....

Had a rough night last night, nuff said.

A lot of good NFL games today.
whoa whoa whoa

GMJ 2-2 with 3 RBI’s?

Really?

and a running mess up

and a HR

he's been doing well

honestly I am becoming a fan

GMJ is attempting to increase his value
Oh man

Mathis vs Mathis.

I always wanted to see this match up

A nightmare worthy matchup
you can tell your grandchildren someday about that glorious event
Amazing

A truely historic moment in Baseball history

mathis has a nice looking swing.

for what its worth.

I think I saw that at angels stadium

our mathis lost that battle
angels won the game

Looks like Mathis won
FIGGY POP!!!!! :D:D:D
so much for that funk
WOW

Figgy crushed that pitch

Woooohooooo CHONE!!!!!
number 4, niceeeeee
Fig goes yard!!!!
give that guy a contract

and a 4 spot in the lineup.

remember Maicer in the 3 spot

those were the days

What slumping Angels offense??
haha The Figgy Pop shot
*************HOMERUN**************Chone Figgins!***************************
It's time

To get might Q an at bat

Whoa! Where exactly did that ball clear?

The short-porch in right? Over the 377 marker? Or was it closer to the 407 sign?

Not sure.

I think that was at least 370.

Arlington has a HR heavy park

Yes. Straight away right field between the line and the 377 sign is pretty close.

Plus the ball carries.

Torii has been looking really bad recently
last 30 days

he’s has our second highest BA most RBI’s and most HR

i disagree

you must be talking about his 1 error

in 270+ starts right? pffffft…

Was that HBP on Aybar on purpose?

A sign of frustration?

Very suspicious after giving up the HR.

Naw. Wanted to get inside on him

Probably lost the handle

i agree & some payback may be in order
nah just get through the next two innings

and fly home with a 7.5 game lead.

scoreboard and face-raped out of playoff contention

is payback enough

yeah, tarnish the game with an idiotic fight over NOTHING

it’s not Padilla pitching

yea I doubt it had any purpose

I mean the Rangers got rid of Padilla when he could still get people out.

I’d cut them some slack

Okay. Sounds good.

Just hoping that Aybar wasn’t drilled just because Figgy homered.

cm'on Matty , pluck one of them
I don't see any feathers...
why'd they take out Bulger???

2nd straight appearance Bulger only threw 9 pitches

Keeping him limber but rested
Gotta keep him rested for red october
M A T T P A L M E R
So there's still a chance for a Fuentes save??
Mike Plumber......

here to unclog the drain

How about that bulger inning?

stud of the inning award goes to the bulge

.208 baa

for the season.

that’s elite closer material

Man the last time we've hit double digits in runs was

Back in August 31st vs the Mariners

oh

way back then huh?

I wish that kid grew up an Angels fan......
Who and what is he doing?
he was wearing a Rangers jersey

and keeping score. Die Hard fan right there.

leather

flashed

Rich Corinthian leather?

I’d like to have an outfielder’s glove made out of the seats of a Chrysler Cordoba.

depends on who owned it
Jo(h)n Voight?

if so, call me and George Costanza interested…

The bite marks in the pencil

classic

FINAL NAIL

IN IZTURIS’ COFFIN

Until he starts tomorrow. ;)
Yeah, Izzy has had a really good year too
The Rangers chances for the playoffs are going away

the same day the Cowboys lose their Stadium Opener?

How SAD!

Wow check this out from over at LSB..........WTF?
Exactly how wrong would it be to wish Howie Kendrick had replaced a certain dude named Adenhart in a certain car right now? Hank is 7 runs below a zombie replacement at first base. Do you realize how terrible that is? Zombie’s can’t think, they’re slow, and they’re often ejected from the game for eating opposing baserunners’ brains. – Ben quantifies Hank Blalock

whoops probably shoulda edited out the guys signature.

but the first line is all that matters

That's texas for ya.
that's the internet for ya
yea the internet is where one

idiot can make everyone look bad. Most Rangers fans would tell you he was way out of line.

In fact I’m curious as to what the responses were.

only one guy responded.....

and said its probably too soon to say that

Cause at some point it will be OK?
of course not

but apparently some people think so

I agree so much!

I guess we could joke about Nolan Ryan’s son being hit by a car if time healed all wounds.

Some people are seriously deranged.

Yeah the moderators over there

Are usually very quick to nip this crap in the bud. But it’s still classless and tacky.

huh?

super low class, but how does he go from Howie to Hank Blalock? Missed a transition or something there…

The Blalock is part is his sig
the hank blalock thing is his signature.........

I shoulda edited that part out……….thats my bad.

Yeah

Showing their true colors

did he get people mad at him for it?
only one person responded.
Can i have a link please?
where is the link?
Looks like a mod deleted it.

I cant find it anymore there now.

I couldnt find it either
lonestar is an especially sore loser as a rule. LOL
OMFG

I can’t even dignify that with a real response. that is just sick, sick sick..

Texas toast sure sounds good right now, mmm
yea Claim Jumpers Texas Toast would go nicely

with our Free Wings!

Hey Rory, is there going to be a traffic grid-lock before the football game in Arlington?
My gamecast is frozen

anyone elose?

mine is too

listening to the game

I think those chodes at ESPN lag our gamecast on purpose
lucky

any way to listen for free?

i pay 15 a year

get to listen to any mlb game for the year including postseason

me too

middle of the 8th, with CIN predicted as the 100% winner.

huh?

After the game ending gidp last night

howie bounced back with his best game of the year on both sides of the ball

put that in your hat lonestar jon
HOWIE300

sure feels good

CIN is also predicting that texas blows at 100%
kendry

trying to swing even harder

whatever works

errrrr not.

hey Mickey Hacker you haven’t had to really do anything all season, how about now you get off your stadium cushion and get the dude to relax and just swing how he was swinging again?

Why are we going to waste Jepsen when we're up by 5?

Leave Matty in there

Jepsen is warming up in the bullpen?
settle down, Mathews is still in the line up

LOl

PRACTICE

“we talkin’ bout practice, man…”

- Allen Iverson

yea guys he's slumping

those are pitches he was hitting earlier, he just swung through a 91mph fastball

Kendry loves the slumpin
here comes jepsen

maybe he’s throwing lefty to save the right arm for the postseason?

K-mo looking great out there.
certainly living up to the

K part

Jepsen in.

Close the door on these chumps.

jets beat the pats by 7
the pats will never reach a superbowl for awhile.
but there are only 3 "elite" teams in the AFC

New England, San Diego, Baltimore…. OK make it 4? (Jets)

but anyway, that usually helps them.

oh yea

dem Steelers and Titans SUCK

you forgot titans, steelers, and colts.
whoops Steelers

possibly Indy

wow

even I didn’t figure that one. and I picked some crazy underdogs this week..

underdogs?

like the Bungels over the Pack, its unbelievable…

Brady got a dirty Sanchez
F' Brady, cheatin' lil wuss!

It’s a new day for the Jets

Anyone notice since the cheating allegations the pats are 0-1 in the SB?

But prior 3-0….makes me wonder at least.

K-Mo is close to 600 plate appearances

Perhaps he’s fatigued. Probably needs a day or two off.

It's The Big Bad Wolf!
Jepsen velocity? Is he hitting the high 90s?
TV has him

topping out at 95 right now

That's a little off for him

He’s been worked hard the last few weeks.

Only had Big John throwing at 89 though so I don't know how accurate it is
also I really do think Texas has a slow gun

I mean their star reliever was only at like 91.

texas has a slow gun though
Oh snap. Jepsen threw a Curveball
gaaaaaaaary

making abreu look like a hobo

TBH

Abreu would be way better in the DHing spot

agree, give him 8 million to come back next yr in that slot
abrew, liability in right.

of course, when GMJ makes a stupid error im gonna say the same thing.

once a month

you can call gary better than anyone on the team.

those days are wonderful

Light up the Halo!

2 out of 3 was a necessity! :D
