Anyone forgetting about Milton Bradley? Headcase aside, the man nearly has a 1.000 ops. He's hittin' .322 with 9 homeruns and has 33 walks. Someone is lovin' Texas.
I think that's more offense than the whole San Diego lineup combined.

I admit that Milton surprised me with his ability to hit at Petco Park. He was their offensive MVP after the trade. I can understand the Padres' decision to low-ball him after his ACL injury, if they didn't turn around and trade for 40-year old Jim Edmonds.
Bradley has been overshadowed by the whole Josh Hamilton and his amazing feats this early season. He sure is putting up some huge numbers. Man if only the Rangers could ever get some pitching together they could be a force.
Bradley is good no doubt but just not the team player. I would love hitting in that park too.
Bradley has definately been overshadowed by Hamilton this year, no question, but I seriously doubt the Rangers would be a .500 team right now if it weren't for his efforts just as much as for Hamilton's. Bradley is having a great season, in some respects better than Hamilton. He doesn't quite have Hamilton's power, but he does a much better job of getting on base with nearly twice and many walks as Hamilton and an OBP almost 60 points higher.
The Rangers starting pitching hasn't been all that bad either, probably why they actually have a .500 record. Their five leaders in starts all have ERA's of 4.75 or lower, which sadly is impressive for a Ranger rotation. If Millwood continues pitching like he did against Oakland, and Padilla and Ponson remain sub-4 ERA guys, the Rangers might be able to stay in contention for a little while longer. Five games isn't too far out.

Yeah the pitching has more to do with the Rangers success than Bradley but his bat doesn't hurt.
Bradley hits his 10th HR of the season but of course it will be overshadowed by Hamilton as he hit yet another one.
Bradley added another HR!
If someone other than Sir Sydney would step up and make consistant good starts, the team woulod be better. Also, if they weren't in the same division as the Angels, their chances for making the playoffs would improve.

Ponson has actually struggled a bit his last couple of starts giving up 9 runs on 21 hits over 12 innings. Going on three days rest tonight I wouldn't look for that to change a whole lot. Vicente Padilla has been pretty consistant most of the season, just a couple of bad starts including last time out giving up 5 runs but he still managed to strike out 10 batters in that game.

3 walks and a hit for Bradley today.
Meanwhile the padres started Jody Gerut. Bahaha.

Apparently Bradley almost had a run-in with Royals TV announcer Ryan Lefebvre last night. Bradley heard Lefebvre making comments, that he thought were about him, on the TV in the Rangers clubhouse. Bradley was going to the Royals booth to confront Lefebvre but was intercepted by Jon Daniels and Ron Washington before he could reach his target. Lefebvre later said that he was talking about what had happened in the past with Josh Hamilton and how he had turned his life around, and not about Bradley.
