Ridiculous Darvish fires up Rangers

Odd headline. Darvish's record in Japan certainly indicates that he's a gamer and a team-player. The Rangers have to be happy with his record and attitude to date.

Fans sure are...

Campare Darvish with his adament refusal to leave the game and Beckett's unwillingness to pitch with a sore muscle but a muscle but not too sore to play golf. Who would you want on your team?

If it was in 2003 or 2007, I'd want Beckett, but right now I'd choose Darvish over Beckett.

**from New England***

Lets Go Mets...

I thought it was more odd that the Angels brought CJ to pitch the next day. I'd think that is more risky (you get tight after a start even if it's only for an inning) than having a guy stay loose during a rain delay and going back out there for a three or four more innings. But I was one of those who KNEW Darvish was going to be an effective top-of-the-line starter.

Josh Hamilton, is da guy Dat fires up da Rangers!!!

Your headline isn't an acceptable English translation of your story. At all.

Beckett is a tool. He once had the potential to be a great pitcher, but let his ego and childish attitude get in the way.

It wasn't for an inning...it was one-third of an inning. Besides, after CJ returned to his hotel room, he took a couple of Midol and was fine for the saturday start.

Seriously, what's so difficult about pitching on consecutive days? Relievers do it all the time and CJ was a reliever and a closer three years ago. He threw 22 pitches friday only went 5 2\3 saturday. it's not like he was expected to throw a complete game.

I think Scoscia took him out because it was obvious the Rangers were going to hammer him and Scoscia didn't want him to become even more embarrassed. Wilson is a self-absorbed, d - -k and always comes up small in big games. There is a reason why he wasn't wanted back with the Rangers after winning 16 games last season.

and i suspect the fenway faithful will make sure he knows the answer to that.

Why YU so Good!!!

He seems to be the real deal but Dice K taught me to reserve my judgement on the Japanese imports. I'll give it a few years before I judge. Obviously Consistency is the key
