    I've always liked David Ross, even with the Cub connection.

    Apparently he’s having guys swing from their “obliques” too much…

    "swing from your oblique" is a new one, and I love it

    serious question—what does or should a hitting coach do and what should they be held accountable for?

    Hands, feet, legs, hips, head, eyes, setup, load, swing plane...others. Everything can go wrong.

    Video training.

    Do you think a vet who is stuck in his ways for years...will always listen to anybody very much?

    That's the problem. Some do, some don't.

    I’m totally rooting for all these playoff contenders to overswing or hurt themselves (like Rodriguez did last year)…

    Josh Donaldson has only 15 hits this season but 10 of them have been for homeruns. Talk about swinging out of your shoes. Maybe Maldy should take that approach. If you barely can hit the ball, at least make it count.

    Ok that's cool, they had the pitcher and batter mic'd up! I wish the AB had lasted longer so they'd have time to get into some friendly trash talk, maybe they'll keep it going.

    Holy **** these Ranger uniforms are absolutely horrible

    They look like a pro-men's softball team with a keg at every base.

    I would never wish back issues on anybody, even people I really don't like.

    Of course the rangers win on a wild pitch. I hate the rays
