Where's all the smart asses that were ripping on Yu Darvish earlier this year??

Brock Landers · 04-30-12, 09:09 PM

they could have won 10-1 tonight, left men on base in almost every inning

And this was without their best hitter!

WvGambler · 04-30-12, 09:39 PM

darvish is a cash register

2daBank · 04-30-12, 09:50 PM

i wasnt around to bash him here, but im man enough to admit i didnt think he would be anything special much like the rest of the hyped up jap pitchers... clearly i was wrong, bet on his ass today tho

Smoke · 04-30-12, 09:51 PM

I wonder how big his cokk is??

2daBank · 04-30-12, 09:51 PM

Us fans of national league teams love that your rangers will be back to lose in the WS again

Go Cardss

I could pitch for the rangers and be 4-0... not that he hasnt been good... but 4-0 means nothing when you get 7 runs of support every start you make

4 and fukkin 0, biiaattcchhess.

Darvish is 3-0 and has an 0.89 ERA in his last three starts.

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, since 1957 (when the first official rules for rookie status were implemented) only five rookie starting pitchers were 4-0 or better in April: 1968 Jerry Koosman (4-0), 1977 Jerry Garvin (4-0), 1981 Fernando Valenzuela (5-0), 1996 Mike Grace (4-0) and 2002 Kazuhisa Ishii (5-0).

Guy is clearly going to be Rookie of the Year.

Pujols

Detroit

LA Angels

The Texas Rangers are still an offensive force, leading the majors in hits, runs, batting average, slugging and total bases.
WE WIN AGAIN, FOOLS!!!!

when was the first time?

i think tex fans have been reduced to thinking winning the AL is the ultimate goal... Buffalo Bills of this generation

O.89 ERA in his last 3 starts, including against the Yankees. All he needed was one run to get the win.

Try again, haters.

dice k was the same way his first year

just sayin

dlunc3 · 04-30-12, 09:58 PM

he has been solid... no doubt about that

face · 05-01-12, 12:11 AM

personally, i love the kid, i am 3-0 betting on him, i will bet the juice, i think a good pitcher on a team with good bats vs. the anemic blue jays is a great idea. blue jays can't hit regular pitchers, they're gonna hit darvish? no way

Jeffie · 05-01-12, 12:46 AM

Yeah i finally watched him for the first time tonight, he has some good stuff. But honestly its way to early man i still see the angels winning the division.

Rangers haven't won shit but being first place losers.

ZetaPsi808 · 05-01-12, 03:53 AM

winning the AL pennant is very tough to do especially when you beat the tigers and rays in the playoffs

jjgold · 05-01-12, 05:31 AM

Texas is the team to beat

Best pitching and hitting in the league

Watch out AL

Ummmmm, might wanna check the stats, he gave up 4 earned runs in the first inning of his first game....and then 4 earned runs since in the remainder of that game and the next 4 games combined!

Kinda makes "7 runs of support" irrelevant huh?

then why did he say" 4-0 bitches"? most pitchers in baseball would be 4-0 with 7 runs per game of support... sure he has been solid, so point out those stats... dont say 4-0 and say the rangers win again when both those statements are foolish

BY FAR the best hitting team.. but these pitching numbers wont keep up

antifoil · 05-01-12, 07:18 PM

yes this is why pitcher wins are a terrible stat to prove how good a pitcher is. when someone does that, it shows how little they know about the true values used in sports. one can not help but assume they are also bad gamblers.

also in the playoffs managing become more prevalent, which will continue to hurt the rangers.

keyboarding · 05-01-12, 08:11 PM

Wins don't mean anything, even ERA is questionable. His WHIP is incredibly high and will eventually catch up with him, I think.

teaserpleaser · 05-01-12, 08:17 PM

Checkin in I admit I was wrong he is the real deal also see you soon opie getting moved to so texas to haul crude on may 8th so looks like I get to see more darvish
