4 hours ago4 hr I feel like Kumar Rocker has been around for 20 years and he's pitched like 100 innings. I remember hearing about this guy his senior year in HS and then something went down with the Mets on draft night and blah blah blah.

2 hours ago2 hr Let me do what I can to help Schultz again tonight. I’ll make the same doofus pregame comments I made his last start, so he can again prove me wrong. I’ll go a little bigger this time: Why the hell are we pitching Schultz tonight?? It should be Sandlin. Sandlin is clearly better with a higher floor and ceiling. C’mon Venable, go with Sandlin.

Or Calcutta Time which was determined to be 5 hours, 53 minutes and 20 seconds ahead of Greenwich Mean Time. Don't even get me started on Madras Time. Speaking of India, I feel like Kumar Rocker has been in MLB for a decade but I've never actually seen him pitch.

2 hours ago2 hr Kumar Rocker is coming off a tough outing (5.2 IP, 7 ER) vs. Houston, but was pitching to a solid ~3.5 ERA until mid June. 90 innings and counting is a career high for him, so the Rangers are probably hoping the break helps him bounce back.His slider is very good and he throws it 38% of the time. It has a 40% whiff rate and just a .182 average against. Everything else (sinker/cutter/4seam/changeup) is vulnerable to getting hit pretty hard. Velo is a bit below average at ~94mph.Pretty strong splits, LHB are putting up an .857 OPS against him.TEX pen is still limited; their top 2-3 are fresh to protect a late lead, but they’ll have some tough choices to make if tied or trailing. Old friend Tyler Alexander is available, so we’ll likely see him.

Maybe a Blue Jays fan can put it to good use. Another contender for avatar was ‘John and Gordon Share a Glizzy’.

Burke talked about it today when he called into the score

Do we know exactly what the issue is?Not back related. He took a nasty foul ball off his lower leg last night and was pulled. Sounded like he tried to tough it out today but the smart thing is to sit. This game doesn't mean much in the grand scheme and Acuna can fill a roll hopefully.

Do we know exactly what the issue is?He said last night in postgame the foul ball got him directly in his calf. He said he isnt worried about it and that at most it would be a day or two. He also said he was going to try and show up today and play. Its fine to let him sit a game.
