A fun win last night. Did a little good for us all. Strange how decent pitching changes things. Yo had a good performance and the pen came through some how. Scoring for the most part has been adequate. Last night highlighted what a little decent pitching can do.

Keep thinking someone will show interest in Choo

Interested in his bat sure. But his contract not so much.

let him go

 

[THUNDER]

Be nice to win in their house or anywhere for that matter.

They're doin better'n i thought they would.
I had 'em losing a huner't this year....

 

[THUNDER]

Gallo being looked at.

Why? Dude is a train wreck. He strikes out in almost every critical situation, and he ain't even hittin his weight.....

because they figure the Rangers don't know how to deal with him so bring him there kick him in the butt and straight his ass out

Kinda like Chris Davis or Mitch Moreland, who had a huge hole in his swing?

Adequate point.

Moreland frustrated me more than any other b/c he knew he was a much better hitter when he used the alleys, admitted it repeatedly, yet he go months at a time and look a whole lot like Gallo. It never ceased to amaze me how often he'd do this.

I always wondered, "if you know you're a better hitter by doing this, and you've seen yourself succeed in doing so, why wouldn't you want to do this all the time?" I'll never understand that.

All the more reason to change a bunch of our coaches in the off-season.

Major and minor league level.

Moreland had 1 swing , and it drove me crazy. It was soooo predictable.
He started his swing from his ankles on an upward trajectory at about 60 degrees.....he had only 1 opportunity to hit the ball if it was thrown in that exact location only!......Much like Freddy Freeman, although Freddy can make adjustments whereas Moreland never did.....

Anyone noticed that Gallardo has pitched two straight quality starts, and without a run if I'm remembering correctly.

Have noticed.

Would have to eat some of the money as we did Hamels.
