That one was not obvious. When I was a kid, there were, I think, 14 ways to commit a balk. Not sure now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Rodon pitched great. So much better than some of the hacks we throw out there like Pelphrey and Miguel and Holland. Sale, Q and a healthy Rodon woulda made a division winning rotation this year IF you throw in 2 of our prospects: the likes of Fulmer and some of the guys we got in the two trades we made.

If we're in a world where we don't trade Sale, we also don't have most of our best players this year. Don't get me wrong, I want to win, but this team is a lot further than Chris Sale away.

This is a definite bright spot in what has been a miserable couple of months. Finally a stellar performance. Forgot Rodon likes to work fast. That is huge.

Another poor decision by an infielder not knowing the runner with Yolmer rushing I was surprised Anderson didn't fumble that grounder. It looked iffy but he fielded it cleanly and if Yolmer would have just concentrated on getting the one out it would have been no problem. Now, do we win? Or does the last place team find a way to lose before a big road crowd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
