Hated him pulling Shields there, especially if you're bringing in another righty

Shocking?! really good swing

Awesome to see how much fun he's having. Teams really should trade for him now and get an extra 4-5 starts

I've seen probably 95 percent of Abreu's at bats in the majors. This is the slowest his bat has looked to me.

Nice for Yoan to get that after his rocket out

Nice contact by Yoan, right at Hamilton.

Yes

He is made of glass....not good. He's lost a ton of development time this year.

All things considered, this is good news

Yeah I didn't mean the marquee guys, but more the likes of Hansen/Dunning/Collins/Rutherford

Love the idea of trading some of the higher rated prospects for proven above average hitters with lots of control. Yelich was a prime example of this.

Thoughts on Robert's swing? Not impressed when you see the side view, as his timing looks way off. Besides the soreness, I think it shows why the power has been non-existent: https://mobile.twitter.com/2080adam/status/1013811407735967745

He's pulling off the ball. Same thing he was doing when struggling early in the year (remember home opener vs Tigers?). Instead of squaring up the pitches he makes contact with, he's hitting more off end of bat or fouling off to the left side.

Yeah you're going to have to throw in someone like Hansen and more. Gray has a ton of value still, as I believe he has the 5th best metrics in all of baseball

and Eloy just hurt his leg it seems on a swing and had to leave the game

But at least we know one person who was overjoyed for four more nights

Beginning to look a bit like the game that caused the 2016 collapse

2 caught stealing catching for Cease also

I'm with you, either put him as a reliever or trade him in a bust for bust deal.

He's not good at this whole pitching thing. Surprised people still think he has a shot as a starter

Really an awesome start given the weather, Rangers being on fire and the poor defense he got today. Smith called a great game. Love seeing 3-2 offspeed pitches, as it's not like our pitchers have good fastball command.

Gotcha thanks. Sick of seeing that injury this season

Rondon pulled from Charlotte. Wonder if he's coming up and Leury hurt his knee again?
