Great, we're getting the "Hurt" opening on BaD radio tomorrow


I feel like someone took my heart and dropped it into a bucket of boiling tears


And at the same time, someone is hitting my soul in the crotch with a frozen sledgehammer

Low throw from Elvis, **** throw from Odor, terrible attempt at a pick from Moreland.
Are you kidding me? Mitch was forced off the bag.

And then a third guy walks on and starts punching me in the grief bone.

I think you guys are confusing the "pick" by Moreland with him just trying to stop the ball.

Even if Mitch picks that, the runner is safe -- the throw from Odor was offline, Moreland was just trying to save it and have a chance at getting the guy at home.

Lol at some of you coming out of the woodwork tonight just to say "choke job"

Where have y'all been all season?


I was actually here all sason, just busy the last month of it. And yes, this was an epic choke job and hopefully shined a spotlight on our weaknesses so that JD will fix them.

That's not an easy DP but with a catcher running that is a DP more times than not. Two errors on that play allowed the run the bad throw and not holding on to it.

If there's two "errors" on that play, they are on the bad throw from Elvis and the real bad throw from Odor.

Poor setup throw by Elvis. Worse by Odor. All Mitch had a shot at was knocking it down to leave himself some chance.

Well...good season boys. Just another complete team let down in the post season. Hopefully they can figure that **** out next year.

Anyone who saw anything different wasn't watching very close.

Terrible way to end the season, but they never did quit. Bush is your closer next year, that was some really great pitching after the lead off double.

Felt like I was a kid again watching Johnny Oates rangers get trashed in back to back years by the Yankees.

Mitch did a good job of keeping that out of the dugout.

No way. Moreland had it squarely in his glove and it got away. Watch it again.

If the ball is picked cleanly he easily gets Donaldson

Bush couldn't have done really anything more. Got us out of that inning if the play is executed correctly. They did just about everything they could, but you're in an effing hole when Hamels sucks and darvish struggles but you don't can't put together any clutch hits.
Agnzona
How long do you want to ignore this user?
It hit the webbing. A tough scoop but first basemen make those all the time. If he scoops it cleanly the runner goes back to third or is out by a mile.
mhayden
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I'm not sure how you can look at that last play and pick Mitch Moreland as the culprit.

It was a bad feed and a bad throw. If the SS and 2B execute, we're still playing baseball tonight.

If Lucroy doesn't have a passed ball, we're still playing baseball tomorrow.

I am probably on the board of directors for the Mitch Moreland Hate Fan Club, but that ain't on him.
Agnzona

It was a group effort. Low through to 2nd, bad throw to 1st, and Mitch bobbled it.

Starting pitching and lack of production from Lucroy, Beltran, and Beltre lost the series.

Nothing else

Yup.

Bad feed from Elvis, but he pulled his weight.

Bad throw from Odor, but he pulled his weight.

Possibly bad scoop by Moreland, but he pulled his weight.


Lucroy, Beltran, Beltre, Hamels and Darvish did not.

No baseball till April. Today sucks.

Really really sucks. Talk to you guys in Spring training. It's been a fun year

I get that everyone hates Mitch for his .233 batting average, but it's ridiculous to watch that throw from Odor and then blame Mitch for the run scoring.

Yep most of the big names never showed up to play. Blue Jays had their guys pound the ball and ours didn't. Simple as that

Sports can be a *****. Scrap and fight all year long, and then go out with a thud.

BTW, can we convert Claudio to a starter?

Did we have anything go our way this postseason?

Matchup
Times
Ump crew
50/50 calls
Strike zones

I mean holy **** that was brutal. Aggie baseball and Ranger baseball are not very fun in the postseason

When he started the 11th, I was going to post that Bush's appearance was reminding me of Ryan Hendrix vs TCU in 2015. But I couldn't bring that juju into the thread. Didn't help tho.

Hopefully it happens. Remember Tolly got the job basically because he had it all last year.

Also at least A&M won yesterday or this would have been a very ****ty sports week.

I think what bothers me the most is that we were barely even competitive. We had one lead, and it lasted less than an inning.


Then again, I would probably rather get swept than lose in game 5, if we were gonna lose

I didn't like the matchup but never thought we'd be swept after all the comebacks this year.

Been a fun season. Hate to end like that.

Enjoyed finding this thread. Never ventured to the MLB board before this year.
