There's almost a Newtonian law on this board whenever you get too belligerent or bellicose (this bullpen is nails! Rodon is crisp) that something bad will happen next. You know, Martinez also struck out the side yesterday in the 2nd when he gave up all those runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Yeah, trying to quick bunt a Rodon fastball up in the zone was not a very intelligent play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) Sanchez made the adjustment defensively and saved two runs. Rodon can't keep throwing this many pitches. Our shaky bullpen will get overexposed in the 6th and 7th. Edited June 5, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's be honest, it doesn't matter how good Sanchez's defense is if he's going to hit like a pitcher. I'm cool with giving him a few more weeks, but if he doesn't show something we'll have no other choice but to bring back Micah or give Beckham a shot.

chitownsportsfan Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I dunno man I really want to give Carlos 200 PA and see if he can make the adjustment to MLB pitching. His defense has been a huge boon to the staff. I kinda want to throw out the saber stats with him I think he's had a calming affect on the entire defense.

I'm describing exactly what the Rangers' announcers were providing to the audience (they should also be more familiar with their own stadium's gun readings). If I had a t.v. feed and could actually SEE what was going on, then I would gladly admit to being wrong...like criticizing the Astros' front office all last year.

I gotta admit that this is where I agree with Hawk. If your team is struggling to score runs why sacrifice defense? I like Gordon at 3rd because Gillaspie is just too inconsistent.

Under no circumstance does Davidson deserve a major league job. He'd be embarrassed by major league pitching, even in a platoon role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
