    Re: 2008 Texas Rangers

    It's pathetic that Josh Hamilton is in 6th place in the OF for the All-Star game. If he doesn't start the All-Star game I'll be pissed, he's had a better year than Ichiro, Manny, Abreu, Ordonez, Vlad.

      Hamilton is having a better year at the plate than anyone. He damn sure better start.


      Also, Rangers are above .500!

        Hamilton - .326 - 14 HR - 61 RBIs
        Ichiro - .284 - 3 HR - 15 RBIs - 24 Steals
        Manny - .286 - 10 HR - 35 RBIs
        Vlad - .246 - 7 HRs - 28 RBIs
        Magglio - .325 - 9 HRs - 35 RBIs
        Abreu - .298 - 7 HR - 36 RBIs.

        As you can see...Hamilton has the best batting average, most HRs & most RBIs and even has double the RBIs of Vlad.

            Well...Rangers look like they may be represented well in the ASG...

            Kinsler 2nd, Young 2nd, Catalanotto 5th, Hamilton 2nd...Rangers called up Eric Hurley from AAA and will replace Sidney Ponson, he is one of our best prospects IMO.

              Good that they called up hurley. Getting ready to vote Hamilton, Young and Kinsler in now.

                Good job Rangers win again after being down 5-1 for the 2nd day in a row, this time with a David Murphy Grand Slam

                  Wow. And I'm not even that much of a rangers fan. I just like their offense. Their pitching is terrible though.

                    Eric Hurley had a decent debut, 6 IP, 6 H, 4 ER, 0 BB, 3 Ks..Although he did allow 2 HRs . 2 out of 3 isn't bad.

                      Texas hasn't been playing bad, its nice to see C Max Ramirez & 1B Chris Davis both up in the majors and both have already hit HRs since being up..(Ramirez 2nd Game, Davis 3rd AB).

                        This team is just odd that they can't seem to get past .500. Of course if you'd told me before the season that they would be .500 around the all-star break I would of taken it gladly.

                        edit* Nice win tonight against the Yankees. First time in 2 years that the Rangers are 2 games above .500.

                        I was on the edge of my seat the entire game after Arod hit that homer. I was just sure we were going to blow it at the end. Specially when we couldn't score Young from 3rd with no outs.

                        Tomorrow night against Jaba should be a good game.

                          Nice win over the Yankees again...Pitching has looked good lately...Hurley definitely has a bright future.

                            no doubt. This has been a fun team to watch this season

                            it would be nice if they would have kept John Danks, Chris Young, and Adrian Gonzalez...but the Rangers have a lot of young talent and they seem to play the right way imo. They are heading in the right direction imo.

                                Big series against the Angels this week. If we win we gain a lot of ground. If not, then we might as well start looking towards the trade deadline.

                                Just heard Hurley won't be starting tomorrow, it will be rookie Matt Harrison.

                                Looking forward to his debut, hopefully he'll have a good outing.
