Kevin Milwood - In Pictures

Kevin Milwood started out with good stuff, hitting the corners with his fastball, making them run both away from bats and into the hitter's hands......

Sticking to his modus operandi (atleast his M.O. since 12/29/05.......aka day signed with Rangers) his tank ran empty in the 7th inning.  To put a positive spin....he usually only goes to the 5th, thank you air conditioned dome in Minnesota (is it still the Metrodome?)

I'm not going to justify my opinion on him, if you've been a Rangers fan since he's been here, you know what I'm talking about, just trust me huh?

So without further ado, I give to you the Kevin Millwood biography..........in pictures:

Last Night

Last night the world was introduced to the beast that is Josh Hamilton.

Also happening last night, my man crush for Hambone intensified to embarrassing levels.

I'm going to let it soak in a little longer before I put a full entry about the All Star events.

Mainly because the exact level of love for Josh Hamilton may come out, thus terrifying those who know me and may cause me to question my own sexuality after I see it written down in black and white.

I strongly urge you to watch this clip taken from the seats of Yankee stadium as Hamilton's turn was underway.

Rangers 5 - Angels 4

Click on me!!!!!!

 

 

I love this game.

Quickie....

-Big game tonight against the Angels as they come to town for a 4 game series.

A sweep on our part could be a bad thing.

Should we close the gap to 3.5 games, JD and company might start trading the farm for some rentals.

So, for the love of the Rangers' franchise, I am hoping we do no better than a push, going 2-2.  For the good of the franchise. 

Can't believe I just said that.......

-Neftali Feliz makes his AA debut tonight for the Frisco Roughriders.

 

Feliz is 20 yrs old and was promoted last week, skipping high-A Bakersfield all together. 

We got him in the Teixeira haul.  See an updated scouting report here.

More excited to see him tonight than the boys in Arlington.

Remember it's all about tomorrow with this club. 

Noone get all crazy thinking we're going to be in contention come September.   

I wouldn't be hurt if I was proven wrong, let's just do it with the current roster.......kapish? 

Stay the course gang. 

Be Good, Go Rangers-

Kinsler gets HOSED!!!

                       vs.                         

 

How in the world does Ian Kinsler not start over Dustin "Mini-Me" Pedroia in the All-Star game?

 

Oh, yeah, that's right......Pedroia plays for the Red Sox.

 

What a joke....

 

I'm sure all the Sox fans who voted for Mini-Me have been lifelong Sox fans as well........

 

God knows you're lying........

 

Be good and GO RANGERS!
