Cliff Lee Poisons Rangers, AL West is Angels to Be Had

by Rev Halofan on Jul 10, 2010 11:01 PM PDT in Angels Postgame

Angels are 4.5 games behind an aceless paper tiger in a Texas homerdome with 72 games to play, 15 against the Dallas Cocaine Cowboys of Arlington.

How bad is it for the Rangers since the moment they went "All-In" on Cliff Lee?

Tonight showed us that the Rangers are running out of gas, while the Angels have no 5th starter.

As far as I can tell, that means the Angels will take the division by 6 games and win their 4th consecutive American League West Title.

No one can ever accuse you of not being positive...

when the first 2 pitches he delivered gave balto a 1-0 lead.

i knew kazmir was a guaranteed L, but listening to the rangers broadcasters come up with excuses as to why cliff lee stunk up the stadium was just great.

Listening to Gubi make excuses for kaz sucking

was borderline Physioc weird.

A thing of beauty

Mr. Lee’s inaugural event.

Every 5th Halos game is now officially Groundhog Day

Same fucking Kazmir shit, over and over and over again…

I'd say the Baseball Gods are angry and demand a sacrifice

however… offering up Kazsmear will just piss them off even more

I enjoy the Rangers losing to the Orioles as much as everyone else here

But considering our own big pitching addition gave up 13 ER to the As and is rocking the worst starter ERA in the majors right now, I’m not sure now is an appropriate time to talk about Lee poisoning the Rangers.

But Lee did poison Rangers

``The Rangers want to apologize to all our fans who waited patiently through last night’s rain delay and the game and then were not able to see a fireworks show’’

see…
