Since the RANGERS are generating talk, lets see who everyone likes. My favorite is Michael Young.

It seems like no matter how many games C.J. Wilson loses people still love him.

Juaquin Jackson and Ramiro Martinez (who shot the Tower Killer) should have been on the test. And don't forget Jace Pearson.

To be honest, I haven't watched the Rangers in about two years. :nerd:

Probably because for all the hoopla about his ERA, he still has converted 24 out of like 27 save chances...Now in saying that his attitude last night might sour some fans

I swear ive seen him blow at least two saves and was at a game where he blew a 2-2 tied game in the 9th. And Ive only watched 5 to 7 games this season.

Tough to decide. The whole team is just fun to watch. Hope they continue to play the way they are right now.

Actually, it would be Josh Hamilton.

I agree with you. My favorite is Michael Young, but I enjoy watching Gerald Laird, Jarrod Saltalamachia, Chris Davis, Ian Kinsler, Ramon Vasquez, Marlon Byrd, David Murphy, Brandon Boggs, Josh Hamilton, and "Every Day" Eddie Gurdado.(I don't know if I spelled all the names correctly) These guys are a blast.

Coming into this year, it was Ian Kinsler...the more I've read and the more I've seen, the more I've grown to become a big Josh Hamilton fan.

And for anybody who's interested...Edinson Volquez's ERA month by month this year:

April: 1.23
May: 1.63
June: 3.45
July: 4.54
August: 9.00 (just one start)


Looks like the NL is getting used to him the more they see him.

:thumbsup: Definately not one they need to screw around and let get away. Gave the vote to Hamilton though.

He's thrown more innings a few times. He knows what a full season is like...he had three full seasons between triple A and Texas, was starting every September with the big club. So his innings aren't the issue.

I voted for Hamilton, but I'm glad you mentioned Eddie. For a guy that only throws in the mid 80s, this guy gets the job done day after day. He's the most reliable reliever they have right now if you ask me.
