So did anybody catch the fact that Hamilton made the All Star Game?

After his courageous battle with drug addiction there's no way any true American can argue that choice. I think it's only fair to put him in the starting lineup of every All Star game for the next 100 years. Even when he's passed away, they should only play with eight fielders due to the respect such a great individual commands

[TheMACHINE]

Goodbye. :)

im only a foot behind you.

[Phillip]

finally a sweep

hopefully the hitters are finally getting into a groove. they need to bust out with a 10+ game win streak, and try to get some damn separation.

Holland was stellar. Who cares if it was against the A's, who can't hit shit. Complete game shutout is always good.

Also my god...one year and a day after a Rangers fan fell from the 2nd deck down the first base line (and survived)...another Rangers fan fell tonight, in left field between the two fences. This guy wasn't so lucky, and he didn't make it.

Go to the 55 second mark on the video linked. Apparently after a foul ball, Josh Hamilton flipped up the ball to the fan, who fell as he was reaching over the rail to catch it. I can't imagine how Hamilton feels. wow

Wow..that's incredibly horrible. :( Thoughts and prayers with his family. People have got to stop going out of the realm of safety to catch a baseball.

[Axe Murderer]

People have got to stop going out of the realm of safety to catch a baseball.

seriously, if i'm sitting there and i have to bend even a little bit, then i'm just letting it go. just not worth it.

Still, I'm not saying by any means that this guy deserved it. I've seen way worse when it comes to going after balls like that

r.i.p

[AnthonyM]

It's scary to think about how easy it is to just fall over like that. I agree that you need to be aware of that situation if you're in those seats and tell yourself that if a ball is coming your way that you need to make sure that you know about how far you can go before you fall over.

I don't know how easy that would be in the heat of the moment though.

If it were me, I'd probably just not reach over for the ball. Either way, RIP. The kid behind him is his son apparently.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Hamilton shouldn't feel bad, those announcers sound like total assholes laughing about it while it happened

[Texas Chili Dog]

Hamilton shouldn't feel bad, those announcers sound like total assholes laughing about it while it happened

Not sure how anyone wouldn't. A ball you throw to a fan is a little short, causing the fan to reach for it, fall, and die. It is by no means Hamilton's fault. But most normal people would be pretty wrecked about it.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Another update: the guy was talking to paramedics after he fell. But what killed him was a heart attack on the way to the hospital. This story keeps getting sadder.

[log in/log out goods]

I was more saying the announcers should feel a lot worse than he does for how they acted afterward.

That's true. I will assume they just didn't know the dimensions like our announcers do.

The temperature at first pitch tonight was 106. WTF it's after 7pm! FFFFFFUUUUUUUUU

Awesome win for the Rangers and Hambone. After the week he's had, he deserved something positive to happen.

[stretch]

so far so good tonight

holland perfect through 4...

[Texas Chili Dog]

Jesus...Holland is mowing them down and doing so with hardly any pitches thrown. He won't get the perfect game because stretch already said the magic words and jinxed it. But he could still get the [bleep] if he keeps pitching like this. Shouldn't have to worry about his pitch count. Only 53 through 5 innings.

[Spursfan092120]

fingers crossed

[Texas Chili Dog]

Holland seems to completely own the teams that don't produce any offense (Oakland and now Seattle). And then he gets obliterated by teams that can actually hit and score. His next start is in Anaheim. Holland has to be one of the hardest pitchers to predict.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Damnit stretch!!

ok Holland, you can still get your [bleep].

[Texas Chili Dog]

and there it goes. :(

Holy shit:rollin

[Texas Chili Dog]

This isn't even the furthest Holland has taken a no-hitter. In his rookie year in 2009, he had two outs in the 6th before giving up the first hit to the Angels. He finished with a complete game shutout with three hits allowed. 96 pitches (73 strikes), 8 strikeouts, and one walk. That is the best start of his career.

http://espn.go.com/mlb/boxscore?gameId=290809103

He will be hard-pressed to top that one, but he might be on his way. Amazingly, he has already thrown more balls tonight than he did that night. And he has been anything but wild tonight.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Back-to-back complete game shutouts for Holland. 8 wins in a row. Here come the Rangers. :)

[Phillip]

rangers are on a nice roll... gotta keep it going and get some separation from the Angels

[Texas Chili Dog]

Big win for the M's today. We're staying right there! :tu

nope

lol..i thought that was the one that ruined the no-hitter. That woulda sucked.

[Spursfan092120]

lol..i thought that was the one that ruined the no-hitter. That woulda sucked.

Nah..the no hitter was broken by a line drive single into Right Center.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Colby Lewis finished one out away from a CG shutout to match Holland the night before. Make that 9 wins in a row overall; 3 consecutive shutouts and 4 in the last 6.

MLB = f:lolcked

[Texas Chili Dog]

Kinsler lead off HR against Felix Hernandez. :tu

[Spursfan092120]

Looks like Oak-town beat the Angels tonight..with a win against Seattle it's back up to a 3.5 game lead.

[Spursfan092120]

OK..scratch that..that's freakin weird...Right when the game ended, ESPN had Oakland as the winner...guess it was wrong..

[Texas Chili Dog]

^ Angels and A's had a double header. Angels won the first and A's won the night cap. So with the Rangers' win, we gained a half game to make it 3 up on the Angels.

Finally gave up a run, but that's all. Got the 10th win in a row! Only 1 run allowed in the last 4 games. We were 1 up at the break. This has been a successful 2nd half so far for sure.

MLB = f:lolucked

[Texas Chili Dog]

Incredibly and pathetically easy four game road sweep.

:lol Mariners

[TheMACHINE]

Texas seems ready to put away the Angel's this week. eeeek!

[Axe Murderer]

i'm pretty sure the Rangers went into Anaheim last season on a similar streak (winning 13 out of 14 i believe) and ended up losing the series

hope history doesn't repeat itself imho

Yeah..definitely..

[TheMACHINE]

i dunno..fuckin Oakland bent us over and raped us.

[Texas Chili Dog]

The Rangers' 11 game win streak last season ended with a loss at home to the DisAstros. But we won the next two games of that series. So yeah, it was 13 of 14 before we went to Anaheim and lost two of three. It broke a string of 8 consecutive series won.

Oddly, our consecutive series won streak is only three right now.

[TheMACHINE]

Oh my!...our rookie vs Ogando. gg.

[Chris]

Ogando is a rookie too

[TheMACHINE]

mother fucker! Scioscia is gonna put the worst roster ever out there against you guys.

wtf is this shit:
Izzy 2B
Hunter RF
Abreu DH
Wells CF
Callaspo 3B
Kendrick LF
Aybar SS
Trumbo 1B
Mathis C

Chatwood

[TheMACHINE]

Pathetic...putting our best hitter 8th before our worst hitter.

[Texas Chili Dog]

I approve of this game. :tu

12 in a row; 4 shutouts in the last 6 games; 5 shutouts in the last 9 games; only 2 runs allowed in the last 56 innings.

Rangers are on fiyah.

[Spursfan092120]

Great game last night...dominated our biggest opponent in the division...When our offense and defense are doing as well as they are right now, I'd put us against any team in the MLB with confidence.

[Phillip]

great game

kinsler drives me nuts with his brainless baserunning though.

[Phillip]

cruz needs to pull his head out of his ass too. sooooo streaky

[Texas Chili Dog]

Shitty way for the streak to end. We blew that game.

[Axe Murderer]

trade phillip

fuck that guy

[TheMACHINE]

so yah..i changed the channel when Texas was up 8-3. =(

[to21]

^ Yeah what a way to end the streak.

Thank you, Holland and Hunter!

[Spursfan092120]

Fuckin BS game...pissed me off...I'm sure we'll be fine...but still drives me crazy.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Derek Holland must use this:

[Texas Chili Dog]

fuck man....we could have swept this series. Nobody can argue that Weaver was better than CJ today. Fucking one missed fly ball by Chavez turns out to be the difference. We had no business losing this series.

[Spursfan092120]

Today....was depressing.

[LakerHater]

I think both games were Chavez' fault!

[Axe Murderer]

i'm pretty sure the Rangers went into Anaheim last season on a similar streak (winning 13 out of 14 i believe) and ended up losing the series

[Phillip]

what a bullshit couple of losses

[TheMACHINE]

awesome series folks!

seriously we need to trade phillip asap

tired of seeing his crippled ass walking out there nonstop to blow the game. i wonder if stretch is on the market?

Hope Beltre's injury isn't serious. That would suck.

[Spursfan092120]

Adrian Beltre to DL; Chris Davis recalled

By Richard Durrett

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre was placed on the 15-day disabled list Saturday with a Grade 1 left hamstring strain. As expected, Chris Davis was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock to take his place.

Grade 1 is the least severe category of strains.

Beltre, 32, was running hard to third base in the fifth inning after Michael Young's double and felt the hamstring grab as he closed in on the bag.

"I just hope it's not as bad as it felt," Beltre said after Friday's 12-2 win over Toronto.

Beltre said the hamstring felt like it was cramping every time he moved it.

The third baseman leads the Rangers with 76 RBIs and is second in the American League in that category. He has 49 extra-base hits, tied for the most in the league, and is fifth in total bases at 196. Beltre has 20 home runs, just behind team-leader Nelson Cruz. He is second on the team with a 3.6 WAR and is at or near the lead among third baseman in a number of defensive categories. He leads all third baseman in total chances and putouts and has improved the overall infield defense with his ability to take hits away at third base.

Beltre is eligible to come off the DL on Aug. 7. The Rangers expect him to miss two to three weeks with the strain.

Davis is batting eighth and playing third base Saturday night versus Toronto.

Davis, 25, has blistered the ball in Triple-A Round Rock with a .368 average to go along with 24 homers and 66 RBIs in 48 games played. He has 58 strikeouts and 11 walks and has a 1.229 OPS. Davis has played third base and left field during his latest stint in the minors. He was taken out in the fifth inning of Friday's game shortly after Beltre hobbled to the dugout following the injury.

Over his past 26 games at Triple-A, Davis has hit .400 with 14 homers and 34 RBIs with 15 multihit games. He's played just 48 of the team's 100 games, yet his 24 homers are tied for fourth-most in the Pacific Coast League.

Rangers manager Ron Washington has another option at third besides Davis. He could opt to put Young back there. Young played the position for two seasons before Beltre was signed this offseason. Young gets most of his at-bats as the designated hitter, but said Friday that he's ready to play third if needed.

Beltre signed a five-year, $80 million contract with a vesting option for a sixth year with the Rangers in the offseason. He had a calf strain that sidelined him for part of spring training, but he's been a very durable player for most of his career, including this season. Beltre was the only Ranger to have played in every game in 2011, including 99 starts in those 100 games.

"He's a huge part of our team," Young said moments after Friday's game. "He's having a great year. He's a great player, great teammate and we want to get him back in there as quickly as possible. We'll have to find a way to chip away and pick up the slack. It's not easy, but unfortunately sometimes that's part of the game up here. Sometimes you lose valuable players for a stretch. We just hope this is a very small stretch. Hopefully, he gets back as quickly as possible and we can get him back where he belongs, playing third in the middle of this lineup."

Richard Durrett covers the Rangers for ESPNDallas.com.

To be serious for a second, I went back to check last year's Rangers thread to see when I started counting down our magic number. And it just so happens that I started it after the Rangers got their 58th win of the season (we were 58-41). And now this year, we have just won our 58th game to move to 58-43.

So why not? Magic number is also 58.

done deal..

Sources: Rangers deal Tommy Hunter
By Richard Durrett
ESPNDallas.com

The Texas Rangers acquired 36-year-old Koji Uehara in exchange for infielder Chris Davis and right-handed pitcher Tommy Hunter, according to sources. The deal has not yet been announced by either club.

The Rangers also get $2 million back from the Orioles, according to sources.

He has thrown 7 1/3 innings against the Rangers' AL West opponents this season and has allowed one run on three hits with nine strikeouts and no walks. He hasn't faced the Rangers in 2011.

Davis, 25, was the club's fifth round pick in 2006. He's consistently hit at Triple-A, but hasn't been able to translate it consistently at the big league level.
Uehara, who has closer experience, is making $3 million this season on a contract that includes a vesting option for $4 million in 2012 if Uehara pitches in 55 games. He's already appeared in 43, so it looks likely that option would kick in barring injury.

He is 1-1 with a 1.72 ERA in 47 innings with the Orioles this season. Uehara has 62 strikeouts to only eight walks in that span. The right-hander has held left-handed batters to a .146 average, while righties aren't doing much better at .171.

He has similar numbers home and away with his ERA higher on the road at 1.80 (it's 1.67 at Camden Yards), but opponents are batting just .155 against him on the road (.151 at home).

Uehara had 13 saves in 2010 despite a two-month stint on the disabled list, so he can close games if needed.

Hunter, who turned 25 earlier this month, was taken in the supplemental first round by the Rangers in 2007 (54th overall). He was 13-4 with a 3.73 ERA in 23 games (22 starts) for the Rangers in 2010 and was expected to start the season in the rotation until a strained groin forced him to the disabled list. By the time he returned, the Rangers' rotation was set and Hunter was pitching out of the bullpen. He is 1-1 with a 2.93 ERA in 15 1/3 innings this season with the Rangers.

a little info..

Rangers look to Uehara for relief
July, 30, 2011
7:09 PM ET

With the acquisition of reliever Koji Uehara from the Orioles Saturday afternoon, the Rangers are the latest team to wheel and deal before the trade deadline.

The Rangers had to give up a lot (Tommy Hunter and Chris Davis) to land Uehara, but the deal should definitely help them improve a floundering bullpen.

Entering Saturday, the Rangers’ relief corps was in the bottom five among American League teams in ERA, opponents' batting average, save percentage and strikeouts per nine IP.

Rangers Bullpen AL Ranks
ERA 4.42 11th
Opp BA .258 11th
Save pct 63.4 T-10th
K per 9 6.99 11th
>> Entering Saturday

At the minimum, Uehara should help the strikeout numbers.

He is averaging 11.9 strikeouts per nine innings pitched (fifth-best among AL relievers), and his 62 strikeouts are second-most among AL relievers.

Uehara also doesn't walk many hitters. His 7.75 K/BB rate this season is best among AL relievers (Mariano Rivera is second at 7.20).

In his career as a reliever (past two seasons), he's struck out 117 hitters and walked 13 in 91 innings. Last season after July 31, Uehara struck out 38 hitters and walked none in 27 2/3 innings.

Koji Uehara This Season
Ranks Among AL Relievers
K/BB 7.75 1st
K 62 2nd
K per 9 IP 11.9 5th
>> Entering Saturday

Uehara is also very hot as of late. He hasn’t surrendered a run in his last 13 games (15 IP). During that stretch, he has yielded only five hits while striking out 23 hitters and walking two.

Rumors are going around that the Rangers have either gotten Mike Adams/Heath Bell. I've heard two different stories, but if either one is true

:lolm:lolric:loln l:lol:lolgu:lol = f:lolck:lold

if Cj Wilson and Colby Lewis pull their head out of their ass atleast

[Axe Murderer]

looks like it's Mike Adams

[Spursfan092120]

Not a good game so far...Fox Sports was saying we could be getting Heath Bell.

[ducks]

adams is a great pitcher
he has the best era for a relief pitcher like yhe last 2 years
this year it is 1.17
adams has closer stuff

Wow...angels game was heated. Weaver ejected. Verlander no hitter spoiled by a bunt. Crazy ....lots of shit talking

It would have been nice if the Rangers rolled out a major league lineup today. Also would have helped of CJ didn't suck today.

[HomerFan092120]

Great move not only for Texas and their fans, but anybody out there who calls themselves an American. When the Rangers are on top, it's great for baseball and our economy. If you don't like the Rangers then get the fuck out of America!

[Texas Chili Dog]

Not Ranger related, but still baseball related...over the weekend, in the mail I got my recently ordered 1991 World Series dvd's. Every game in its full tv broadcast. And that means the full pregame and postgame. Everything except the commercials.

I was 6 years old and this was the first World Series I watched. Or at least I don't remember the '90 WS if I saw any of that. I remember seeing a lot of Braves games on TBS that season, and liking them because of that familiarity. So I was rooting for them (as much as a 6 yr old can) against the Twins. What a time to be introduced to the game of baseball. That series still is the best WS I have ever seen, and is absolutely one of the best WS of all time. It doesn't get much better than the "And we'll see you tomorrow night!" call by Jack Buck after the Kirby Puckett walk-off HR in Game 6. And of course, the 10 inning shutout by Jack Morris in Game 7. Just a ridiculous series that was. 5 games were decided by one run; 3 games went to extra innings; 5 games decided in the home team's final at-bat. Both teams were in last place the year before. Imagine in 2012, the Mariners and Astros meeting in the WS. That's pretty much what it would have been like.

Since the Rangers have the night off, I'll have to watch a game of that series tonight. It only cost me $20 for the entire dvd set, so I think it was well worth it.

[stretch]

Rangers are going to be deadly once their lineup gets healthy again. They have gone from having a crummy bullpen, to among the best bullpens in baseball.

Roster is looking good, and if they stay healthy, going into the postseason they should be tough once again.

Andrus
Hamilton
Beltre

Napoli/Torrealba

Kinsler and Hamilton need to get their heads out of their asses. Hamilton has done nothing but get empty, useless hits lately, and wasting away at bats by swinging at pitches he has no business swinging at. Kinsler has just blown complete ass in a way that cannot be described in words. Almost makes Chris Davis seem like a nice option.

Adams definitely fucked shit up tonight..pissed me off...he's supposed to be that guy we signed to help put us over...hope this isn't a sign of things to come. I'm not worried about Kinsler and Hambone so much...they'll see their way out of this slump..just hope it's sooner than later...we can't afford any more losses like that.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Let's not forget that Cliff Lee got shelled in his first start with us. Adams giving up the HR doesn't worry me. What worries me is Colby Lewis and how much he has sucked. He should have given up a lot more runs tonight than he did.

Also, I hate playing in Detroit. Can't ever win there.

[Texas Chili Dog]

on another note, Chris Davis went 2-5 with a HR for the O's tonight. Tommy Hunter gave up 1 run in 1 inning.

Napoli has been on a tear lately. Great to see Cruz also has been more dialed in lately.

Kinsler needs to get his stuff together, and they need Beltre back badly. He always seems to come up with big hits when they need them, or with multiple guys on base.

Ian Kinsler has hit 3 or 4 balls extremely hard this series. When you're in a slump, even well struck balls turn into outs, I guess.

Finally got Uehara and Adams in a situation where they can do what they came here to do. Most late inning relievers like to protect a lead. We were tied or behind in all of their previous appearances with us. But we took a lead into the 7th. Uehara came in, then Adams in the 8th, and Feliz looked really good in the 9th.

Nice DP by Feliz to get out of that inning.

btw, I think Ron Washington needs to consider benching Andrus for a game and putting in Blanco to send a message that the defense he has been playing for the last several weeks is not gonna cut it the rest of the way. Elvis is making horrible fielding errors that he normally makes.

Yeah..that might be a good idea, but is this the right time? I mean, as close as this division is right now, I don't know if taking one of our mainstay starters out would be a great move. Though I could be wrong.

[Spursfan092120]

Chavez, Kinsler, Andrus in the 11th? One hit and Hambone's up? I think we have a good shot in this inning.

[Texas Chili Dog]

Yeah..that might be a good idea, but is this the right time? I mean, as close as this division is right now, I don't know if taking one of our mainstay starters out would be a great move. Though I could be wrong.

It's sorta like a NBA coach benching a star player to start the 4th quarter because he played shit defense in the 3rd. Every player has to be held accountable. No excuses. Elvis is normally excellent defensively. So when you see him make all these errors, then you have to wonder if it's a mental thing. He's not just making one or two errors. It seems like he makes an error every single night now. I'm more than willing to have Blanco replace Andrus for one game if it gets Elvis' head in gear. Hell, you don't even have to keep him out the whole game. Wash could insert Elvis in the 7th or something. Just don't start him.

[Texas Chili Dog]

hahaha and as I say that, Elvis gets a bunt single. C'mon Josh, end this!
