After getting trounced the night before, 16-7, I'm not sure many Rangers fans knew what to expect the next game out. Anyone who picked a near complete game shutout by Derek Holland was either really high on Holland, or perhaps just high. I don't think anyone really figured we'd get THAT good of a performance from Holland. Oh, he's shown moments of greatness during the season. He's had some dominating performances for sure. But in the World Series in the next game after giving up 16 runs? No, that's a new level of greatness for the man who sports the goofiest 'stache around.

Derek Holland Could Pitch World Series Game 7 for Texas Rangers Thanks to Weather Postponement

The Texas Rangers had momentum heading back to St. Louis after winning Games 4 and 5 of World Series to take a 3-2 lead over the Cardinals. Now it seems like the postponement of Game 6 could kill that momentum. However, the extra day off could be a huge advantage for the Rangers’ pitching rotation. With some additional rest, Rangers lefty Derek Holland could now start a possible...

Derek Holland Does Harry Caray and Arnold Schwarzenegger Impressions During Game 5

Here is Texas Rangers pitcher Derek Holland doing Harry Caray and Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions. My first thought was that most people can do a decent Arnold impression and Harry Caray would be a little more challenging. Boy was I wrong. Derek Holland does a really bad Arnold impression and a pretty solid Harry Caray impression. He gives the standard Arnold grunt at the end...

Mr. Holland's Mustache

St. Louis Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak has been called a lot of things: bright, shrewd, sharp, a hilarious jokester, and a swell square dancer.Possibly we should add "ignorant" to that list. Allow friend of The Hall (and chairman of the American Mustache Institute) Dr. Aaron Perlut explain.About a year ago, I wrote that I had asked Mozeliak whether he was concerned...

Ryan: Club's young starters will only improve

Derek Holland was 16-5 with a 3.95 ERA during the regular season, while Alexi Ogando was 13-8 with a 3.51 ERA and Matt Harrison was 14-9 with a 3.39 ERA. Rangers president Nolan Ryan said there is another level for all three of them to advance to next season.

Ron Washington says Matt Harrison is still starting Game 7*

ST. LOUIS — The most interesting thing about this postponed Game 6 is that it gives us another 24 hours to talk about something that may not even happen. Should Derek Holland (right) replace Matt Harrison as the Texas' Rangers Game 7 starter, if need be? Will he? Texas manager Ron Washington pledged a few days ago that he'd be sticking with Harrison for that big start,...
