Looks like the Angels have another bad one with Hamilton.

And Pujols is still pretty good for 40 years old. But definitely not worth that kind of money.

Got my tickets for Saturday's Rangers-Royals game. As a bonus, it looks like Darvish will be pitching that day as well. :cabbagepatch

Shields is scheduled to go for KC so you got a lucky draw.

Jeff Samardzija has turned into a pretty damn good MLB starting pitcher. The Cubs need to lock him up for the next 5 years.

Darvish seems to always get off to a slow start. It's frustrating.

I'm sure if you let him know that it annoys you, he'll work on it.
Thanks for hosting a message board where we can express our opinions. Pass that on to Yu, as well.

Your troll skills have weakened as the years have progressed.
:lol

There are two go to things that people spout when I post anything remotely joking/trolling/whatever:

1.) A dig about me owning the site.
2.) I'm a troll.

You have accomplished both. Grats.

I have Yu in a FBB keeper league and I get all the Rangers games so I know all about the slow starts. However, usually after a shaky 1st and/or 2nd inning he shuts MFers down and racks up the strikeouts. He's the real deal. How long has it been since the Rangers have had a legit ace like him? I know you probably realize you're nitpicking, I'm just sayin'...

Oh, he has already settled down, but it's just frustrating knowing he can shut people down when he wants, but still comes out shaky. I am still extremely happy to have him, just a little frustrated that we have to go through this every game.

I probably should not watch every single game. It probably isn't healthy.

10 K's thru 5 innings. I suppose I am nitpicking.

He does start out slow every outing, though. Which my original point.

13 K and a 4–2 lead through 7. Those shaky starts are a bitch, though. :art
The two runs he gave up were in like the first 3 batters.

Chris Davis' numbers so far this year:

BA: .359 OPS: 1.214 HR: 19 R: 40 RBI: 50

Obviously he can't keep up this kind of pace (1.214 OPS, for example, is f'ing ridiculous) but everything about his game/advanced stats suggest this breakout if for real. #myfantasybaseballteamrules

Im pulling for him. It still hurts but good to see him come through.
