Love the two walks

Huff (Rangers prospect) just murdered a ball to tie the game in the bottom of the 7th.

You are being a whiny bitch in this thread though. With all due respect.

It started early.  The soccer game. The Angels game. The futures game... COMMENTARY.

It's been too much. But typical

Adell battled back to work the count full and walk which led to a game-tying 2-run home-run. After, Sean Casey and Jim Thome are just loving talking to Jo in the dugout. I can't state enough how much people love to be around him.

Adell's plate discipline is awesome.

He should be our future leadoff hitter.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Rengifo is looking like he might end up as the leadoff hitter at some point which would be ideal with his combo of plate discipline, speed, and being a switch hitter.

Adell's power should have him hitting in the middle of the order at some point.

Nice diving catch by Adell

The way Rengifo played today he could lead off now.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Asmus said he didn't want to put that kind of pressure on him while he is still adjusting to major league pitching. I took that as meaning he will become the leadoff hitter if he continues to play at the level he has shown since June.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Adell with a chance to walk it off here.

[rafibomb]

Jo Adell up with 2 outs and a runner on 2nd with a chance to win the game.

Strikes out swinging and the game ends in a tie. Lol.

[tdawg87]

Franchise over.

[bloodbrother]

When it comes to the Future's Game, Jo Adell is no Hank Conger

TONY REAGINS?!

He has been getting on base often enough lately.   Since June 1, his OBP is just over .350.  I'm guessing that the lack of SBs is due to batting low in the lineup?

I think the lack of stolen bases is the result of team philosophy more than anything else.
