Thanks people, gl on your plays.
Brewers - I think because they see Baldelli is probably not playing with a hamstring injury. People see big names out and if they're not close to a team (with me and the Rays) they assume the worse.
What they don't know is he has been 1 for his last 40 at the plate and has done nothing but hurt this team offensively. Can't wait for new blood in the lineup, on top of that Texas is horrible on the road and has zero heart right now. Tampa is showcasing themselves for a possible move to Orlando right now and are lovin it.....Fossum in a pressure free situation in front of only 9,000 or so (max amount for Disney stadium), expect a solid outing like a few he's had this year where he's picked up both his wins (at home)..
Most pitchers are better at home then on the road, Fossum is the extreme. Last year 4-2 3.48, road 2-4 8.08.

Texas Rangers are in the worst possible f'ing condition ever.
This team is dead right now. I suspect the manager is a shitty fit, even tho the media says "Oh no, he is perfect." My ass.
I've been saying it for weeks = something is terribly wrong with this team. Inside and out. I hardly recognize the players in the line-up.
Fade deluxe. No heart, you are right. They are doomed.

Shit worked out to favor both of us billsfan.. :banger: is right.
Yeah Uncle Steve...more so than TEX today I loved TAMPAS TENACITY. Everytime the Rangers scored, Tampa came back to match or outscore in the bottom of the inning.
Baldelli out and Rays go on offensive explosion as thought. Gomes filling in goes 1/3 with a run, hit and a walk. That's more than Rocco did in 40 AB's.
Fossum sucked but so did Padilla, didn't have the outing plan but money is money.

I used to play on a softball team that reminds me of these TX Rangers.
Everyone waited for 'someone else' to take the role of leader, make some plays, get some hits, and most games, we all just stood there looking at each other.
I remember one game, in particular, I was coaching third base = I looked in our dugout, and I couldn't find ONE FUCKING GUY who I thought was gonna do something. I knew standing there, we were dead.
I get that same feeling with this TX Ranger team. As a matter of fact = I think I'm going to fade these guys for the rest of the season = I promise you this = given what they have and DON'T have? You will come out ahead to bet the hell out of whoever plays them, they are truly BAD. No shit. Everything about them is suspect. Just awful. I've watched them for 30 years = never this bad, I don't think. Money to be made. As bad a Fossum is? They smoke Padilla, holy smokes. That says volumes to me. Or, I should say, it backs up what is in my mind.
Good call.

US - I know what you mean with this TEX squad, I'm trying to figure out who their clubhouse cancer might be as I think they have to have one. They are a young team with as much potential (minus an ace) as Oakland but the difference is Oakland's young team is loose and fun. This Texas team is just dead. I'm thinking it's either Sosa/Lofton or the combination.
6kill - Probably, not sure yet. This Rays team hadn't won 3 in a row since like last August. 4 is pushing it. However, I love Kazmir in this spot against the despondent Rangers. They did everything they could to get the win today besides pitch, their star Texiera went 3/4 with a big HR and they still couldn't win. These kind of games take the air out of a team and Kazmir seems like a good choice for at least a 1* play.
