Jose Abreu Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 QUOTE (StrykerSox @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 09:48 PM) He's 6-21 with a double and a walk. It's not that exceptional and it doesn't negate the pre-ASB lousiness. I meant it more as he is hitting the ball better. And I know it doesn't negate anything, but my point is that he's at least trending upward a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I am guessing that when Leury is ready to come back we will see Engel sent down to Charlotte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can appreciate the optimism, but he just seems soooooo far away from the very solid player we saw last year. I want him to make it because he seems like an easy player to root for, but I keep having Gordo flashbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 QUOTE (Scoots @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 03:21 AM) Didn't shields used to be actually good at one point? Like an ace for the Rays? How has he become so horrible? I'm surprised guys like Holland and Shields risk their health at this stage of their lives. Both are set for life financially, but they are so bad they could EASILY take a line drive off the head at any moment. It's not worth it. If they love pitching, go pitch in the independent league like Scott Carroll with KC's TBones. QUOTE (harkness @ Jul 22, 2017 -> 03:39 AM) Anderson is unimpressive in so many ways right now.... Hopefully he figures out.. because "evidently" he has great talent. They need to send him down and forget about him for a couple months, til spring training. Let him properly mourn the death of his loved one and start again next spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie for Manager Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 21, 2017 -> 10:27 PM) Awesome tag by Moncada Best thing about Moncada so far is no strikeouts in his first 7 ABs. Maybe he is more interested and concentrating more in the majors than in AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
