August 23, 20196 yr I still can't believe the Rangers were able to steal Solak from the Rays. This is the type of deal Hahn needs to find but he would have to a. be creative b. self scout c. not over value his prospects. I'm not gonna hold my breath.
August 23, 20196 yr Just now, fathom said: Bunting in the 2nd with Detwiler on the mound. There's a method to the madness.
August 23, 20196 yr Just now, fathom said: Bunting in the 2nd with Detwiler on the mound. Stats be damned. Ricky's gut told him to play for 1 run like its 1957.
August 23, 20196 yr Wow...Stone was pretty critical o the bunt decision. Laying on the sarcasm thick with “you have to love the bunt from a left handed batter against a right handed pitcher in the second inning.” Edited August 23, 20196 yr by Blackout Friday

Plus with Jay, Skole and Yolmer coming up. Maybe that's what he means by knowing his guys. He knows the chance of a multirun inning are slim. How often does a runner on 2nd score with no outs ? Then throw in it's 3 guys who can't hit and even if someone does get a hit it doesn't mean it scores the run.

August 23, 20196 yr If Jon Jay can't hit a groundball to the right side there is literally no reason why he should be playing.

August 23, 20196 yr If Detwiler was an opener that would be a good 3 innings but I'm sure they will leave him in until he gives up at least 1 run.

August 23, 20196 yr So another wasted out. Rickey manages like he is facing Pedro Martinez in his prime.
