Odor vs. Joey Bats Round 2!
- Thread starter Darnell's Son
- Start date
Hi, we are moving over from the October game thread. I'm sure E5 is thrilled. Anyway, this sucks. Hamels just isn't good enough, and even if the Rangers can catch up, he is racking up a big pitch count and will lead to the stress on his bullpen.
And there's the hit. Blown open. Glad we didn't trade Mookie for this guy. Understatement of the year.
It is just one game and it isn't over yet, but Texas looks like the overrated team I thought they were.
I was always, always against the Sox giving up our best baby for Hamels. (But that's sort of my MO, so I always assumed I was wrong.)
I wasn't necessarily against getting Hamels but I would've rioted if we gave up Mookie or X for him.
Hey, I thought the umps were particularly chosen for the post-season based on in-season excellence. Was I wrong?
What's up with the Texas D in the post season? They were awful last year and they've picked up right where they left off.
This is pitiful. While Texas is my least favorite state, I somehow still really like the Rangers. Sad for Beltre, one of my favorite players ever.
Cole going to have to take one for the team on this one already? no long man?
edit: nope - finally out of his misery.

To this day I think the biggest mistake they made is not signing him.
He proved more than worthy of a long term contract and the Sox might have Anthony Rizzo manning 1st base today along with all the young guys.
The American League is so wide open this year, get your heads and asses wired together Red Sox and you can do this.
Playing out of position will sometimes do that. And that just heightened my appreciation for Mookie Betts.
I don't see any reason why an OF should not have made that play.
true, Hamels melted down in this game and left the pitch middle middle at the end of an extended 2-out rally
if Toronto suddenly has it all together... well, let's get there first.
