ASB couldn't have come at a worse time ... but then again. Really we were playing the same baseball in the Royals series as we did during our mini-run. Pitching has been terrific. Bullpen has been terrific. Defense has been improved. And offense is a ghost. Even when it was 95 degrees and playing at the Cell ....

 

 

Let's go Rodon!

 

Calling a 5-2 loss. Probably a strike three called no swing somewhere in there for LaRoche. A hang wiff em out or two for Melky. Abreu swining strike three on a low and away pitch. Probably a couple two on, one out disasters that end in no runs. A solo shot when the game is out of reach. A base running mistake by someone. Good amount of strikeouts for Rodon but an inning where he walks 2-3 and lets in runs. Hawk complaining about the strike zone not being consistent. Stoney getting cut off on a point by Hawk. Robin just staring. Robin making a trip out to the mound, only to be talked back into the dugout by the pitcher, then the pitcher letting up a run and Robin calling to the pen a batter later, Robin calling for Dan Jennings in a pivotal point in the game for no reason, Dan Jennings letting up a hit ... you know, the normal.

Well that didn't take long. :lol:

Just turned on the game.

 

What the hell happened?!

Eaton gave them a free run, Rodon got wild when guys got on base, then the Cardinals really started hammering him.

 

Just one of those days, some really good pitches by Rodon but a lot getting away from him.

Has Cooper worked with Rodon at all replicating his release point? Because he hasnt seemed to make any progress since he was called up

 

 

In his defense, it's tough when you don't get consistent starts. He'll be fine.

I guess there's no harm letting Rodon gain experience since the team is going nowhere, but it's kind of painful to watch a guy with some talent stink on occasion.

They're wasting service time on this nonsense. Poor asset management all the way around.

Not only would he preserve service time in Charlotte, he'd get better coaching and would be pitched to develop, not to be better than Noesi.

Good post, GreenSox. Nonsense is a pretty cool word to describe what I'm seeing with Rodon this season.

He's not wasting service time. He came up after the deadline. They control him for 6 more seasons after this one. It's fine.
