We are four humble men who love sports, but hate sports commentary. Peter Gammons is our hero and John Madden is our enemy. If you were to ask us our purpose, our answer would be simple: "We are forever locked in Mortal Kombat for the souls of sports fans everywhere. Statistics are our science and 'the immeasurable character of men' is the obsolete religion of blind faith. Our job is to prove that God doesn't exist and that athletes are merely cold, metal machines with no hearts or souls."

Why is Hamilton playing Center?
I just read that Josh Hamilton got injured in yesterday’s game. The thing that stood out to me in the article was that he is playing center field? I want to know why. Josh Hamilton can play center, but he is not great. The Rangers have many alternatives that are better in center such as Andrew Jones, Marlon Bryd, and David Murphy. Hamilton is their best hitting outfielder, so why not put him in one of the corner’s to preserve him more for his offense when one of the other corner guys are more than capable to play center.
100% guarantee you that Nelson Cruz will bump Hamilton to the corner (RF?) this year. I'm gonna predict Jones as the 4th OF and Either Murphy or Byrd playing the other corner.
ReplyDeletehahaha the Rangers signed AndrUw Jones
