Fat Boy Blanton on the hill again LOL

[Big Bear]

you know what to do

[tavesims]

idk about Blanton, fading I assume right

[BigD46]

I faded him and Francis already. The lines aren't bad even if both gas cans are pitching at home.

[Vasco]

Angels crush Holland too. Over 8.5 looks good. Angels could win a 6-5 type game. Over seems safer.

[Vinnie Paz]

guy cant possibly get shelled every game, bet he throws a fukkin gem tonight

[PerfectGrape]

From last game:

Blanton said he's dealing with a mechanical issue that's affecting his fastball command and, to some extent, his velocity. He's usually at 89 to 90 mph, but on Tuesday, he was mostly hitting 87 or 88 mph.

"It's just a tick off, and that tick off has brought the [velocity] down a couple miles an hour, probably from trying to feel it, not trusting it," Blanton said. "And the location is not there, too. It's a little bit of a combination of the two."

[Bbfromgpt]

Sounds to me like he's lost confidence

[Big Bear]

Sounds to me like he's lost confidence

yeah he has. He used to be a good pitcher.

But the Angels bats have been heating up. So i mean the Angels could end up winning 7-6 game or something like that but if Derek Holland is on , it wont be close.

[face]

good luck, also on rangers

[face]

that a boy blanton, keep it comin

[Barnes & Whine]

Has Blanton even won a game in the last 3 years?? LOL

[drfunkmaster]

holland sucks... unreal.. wild pitches, every time i look he is walking players... . and rangers cant bring anyoen home.. 8 hits and 2 runs. unreal... against this fat blanton penetrate Need rangers for a 6 team parlay.. not happening..

[BigD46]

fat boy settled down.

hopefully he still has a bad inning left in him.

[drfunkmaster]

rangers aint winning this game by getting hits and starnding them on base. Unfvcking believable. get rid of Holland..

[drfunkmaster]

God damnit... who is managing this team... penetrating bums!!!

[Big Bear]

Bang!

[Big Bear]

you know what to do

bump. 0-7 on the year.

i'm sharp.

[BiffTFinancial]

One of the many things that i love about fading Blanton is when i go to fangraphs before his start to get my numbers, and i type in Blanton and two results come up: Joe Blanton and Cy Blanton. There could be no more ironic name to see next to Joe Blanton than "Cy"

[BigD46]

6 hits allowed through 3 innings yet it's still 0-0. Fat Boy Blanton's being lucky!

[face]

How many runners are these whitec0cks gonna strand?
