Balta1701 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 7, 2012 -> 10:05 PM) There's no chance he gets non-tendered. He's arbitration eligible this year, and last year's performance was not worth a $3 million first year arbitration deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco72 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 QUOTE (sunofgold @ Apr 7, 2012 -> 10:06 PM) Getting into the late innings....our bench consists of AJ, Escobar, Viciedo, and Fuku....I think all four could be inserted right now and be instant upgrades. AJ for Flowers. Escobar for Morel Viciedo for Beckham (move Lillibridge from LF to 2B) Fuku for Rios  Do it. Do it. Call a timeout and swap in/out four players.  Flowers has looked pretty good out there, and Escobar is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His glove alone could get him that elsewhere. I'm sure there are teams in the NL who would pay him that for his glove and let him bat 8th. He's still got potential.

caulfield12 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Well, Rios finally made a play that Quentin and/or Viciedo probably wouldn't have, which could have ended up a double or triple had it gotten beyond him. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you're right, it's looking more and more like Santiago. It's one of Santiago or Crain, and based off Thornton's 8th inning experience, I'd have to think it's Crain and not Santiago, unless Crain is still a bit banged up. Â So really, I have no clue.

sunofgold Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 OK. Rios has hustled yesterday and made some catches today. At least he is doing something. Morel and Beckham have stunk it up the most these two games. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jphat007 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I didn't realize Texas had such a good pen. If their starters are even decent they should win close to 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
