caulfield12 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Beckham nearly got called out there and got the benefit of the call. FOXTRAX says the pitch b4 to Gordon was clearly a strike...meanwhile, great improvement from Gordon considering he was at .153 just ten days ago.

caulfield12 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) Bad luck for Adam Dunn there, should have had two RBI's. So much for Dunn's bat speed. If Paulie can pick up the final runs, it would be huge to give Gavin four runs to work with an add another 2 out RBI.

For Dayan, I'm sure it's the opposite. I don't really think it's a question of Dayan's bat speed, it's the fact that his swing path is so long (like Dunn's or Lillibridge's) that he's just been in between and always a split second behind, like Dunn was seemingly all last season. He's got to go up there sitting dead red...whereas it seems like he's waiting for the offspeed pitches but can't quite dial it up for the fastballs. Great play by Gordon in LF saves 2 runs and keeps it a game. Edited May 12, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) Could easily be 5 or 6 to nothing if not for the very good play against Viciedo by Escobar and then Gordon saving two more runs with the leaping grab...plus, he's piled up so many outfield assists and kept baserunners from advancing numerous times. Floyd on cruise control again the last couple of innings. Don't stop now boys. Need to get AJ and Rios going again, as well as the Cubanos.

They can't bring up Kuhn or Corey Smith. Lillibridge I guess is the only option, but he hasn't shown much offensively, except for his stolen bases. Someone in Texas royally screwed up. Darvish and CJ Wilson both started and then that game's in danger of being a really long rain delay (in the bottom of the 1st) and both starters scrubbed.

SOMETHING isn't going to be converting a 1b to third. And I wouldn't get my hopes up about Dallas either, that guy is just a hitter at this point. He couldn't hack it at third. It is most likely Morel or bust, save a trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
