A. Guti batting title, B. Fister Cy Young, C. Lopez Gold Glove.

Because he has a reputation as a kind of poor fielder, he doesn't do anything flashy out there
and he’s against some legitimately great 3B in the AL.

He doesn't hit well enough, and Fister probably won't strike out enough guys
Even if by some miracle he maintains. A sub-2 ERA might get him noticed though.
Hate to mention this in a game where he's pitching
But he’s posting a, uhh, 0% HR/FB ratio right now.

Our only run so far has been a doiley as well.
If it stays 1-0, the Rangers will have a taste of how we felt on Friday and Saturday only worse.
Well even though Fister obviously isn't this good
He’s 26 and doesn’t even hit arbitration for a few years. Kickass.
He can't keep this up
but it certainly gives me hope that he can be a decent back of the rotation guy for a few years.

JACK WILSON LISTENS TO THE LL PODCAST
"Won't see that often, Michael Young is about as solid as they get."
Career -12.6 UZR/150 at 3B
Why does everyone always skip over Michael Young when talking about the worst contracts in baseball?
Almost 4 years left on his contract and by 2013 he probably won’t even be able to play a defensive position.
Why the hell does he continue to be borderline mediocre.

By far and away my favorite draft prspect at the time.
"I might be a butt hoarder...speed skating butts that is." - wazzu93
If he gets to 120 pitches
then he’s given up runs.
I'm aware of that.
If he throws 20 pitches in an inning, chances are good that runs have scored or are scoring.
Judging by the congrats he got in the bullpen
Looks like we will see the DA.

Come on now, struggling at the plate, but just a tad unfounded.

I would like to thank the wolves that raised Eric Brynes ...
Im suprised those fan comments don't mention griffey or sweeney

One of the texts showed a person saying
Fister looked like a young Randy Johnson. I puked.
I just sent in an encouraging text.
I hope it shows up!
One of which was not a strike.

Dustin Nipper just struck out Ichiro. This just isn't our game.

I see that Jen wants us to have a fun-filled season.
Darien is encouraging some “Sodo Mojo”, and Mike reminds us that our starting pitching has been exceptional.
I love these scrolling fan-text comments.
Katal, they forgot the damn hyphen between fun and filled.

I'd sleep at the Internet, but I've found servers don't make for good pillows.

Figgens bomb coming up
Then a Guti double to bring him home.

I believe he is saying
that Figgy is incapable of hitting a walk-off
So you are saying a Figgins bomb
would be a double? And it’s Figgins with 2 i’s, no e.

Figgins!
I am getting pretty fed up of correcting people on this.

Sorry about it, but Yay! he walked.
Guti double please!
Figgins
He has been in the league for years now. They show his name on the screen. It is sewn onto the back of his jersey. F-I-G-G-I-N-S

I'm not gonna lie, I kind of like the wave
I don’t like it when it goes around 10 times or when I miss important events and people need to give up when they try to start it 18 times but there is something about the wave that makes me smile.

Should we even be surprised anymore?
This series is like some sort of cruel torture experiment

I think if a team plays the majority of it's games at a place like Safeco, it makes it okay to use steroids.
Who’s with me?

Hopefully a Texas Ranger catcher gets injured and has to come out of the game and is healthy again tomorrow

Or if Brumley had sent Guti on a ball he could have scored on
