Rodon has to be sent down tomorrow to resume starting. This is madness. Time to re-assess a dumb decision. It's OK to admit an occasional dumb decision.

poor kid

Minn has played dead against teams all year and they are just smoking the Sox.

Rodon's pitches today do not warrant K's. He doesn't have strikeout stuff for sure.

edit: whatever.

Get Rodon out of there. Horrible misuse of Carlos...he clearly isnt ready, at least for the role they've forced him into.

Exactly, I'm sure Guerra's rehab assignment is just about up. bring him back, and let Rodon get back to starting. Not a tough decision.

3-3 against the Royals.

I can't believe Rodon is still in. Like, RV out does himself on a weekly basis. This could easily be a 9-5 game if not for some luck there.

I'm with Hawk on that point!

200th passed ball already this year.

one of the worst sliders I've ever seen Rodon throw. OMG WHY IS HE IN.

That was a nice pitch finally. Please send him down after the game and do the right thing with Rodon. When he runs out of innings as a starter, he runs out of innings. It'll be unfortunate but who gives a f***?

6 more lifeless outs to go

Alright, let's get him a beer shower today. Put up a 4-spot and quit playing like pansies.

If JR still has a pulse, he has to do something. This is even worse than 2007/09/11/13.

Last slider pretty nice.

It was but let's be real: that's some of the worst stuff Rodon has ever featured. Laser show at times the least two innings. He should never he been left in like that in a 2 run game.

they are going to ruin this kid.

No they are not. He doesn't pitch back to backs, and they keep him stretched out for when he joins the rotation which could happen soom with the suspensions.

It'd be nice if we had a righty candidate to platoon DH with LaRoche. Meanwhile, the great closer is never needed. Start planning a blockbuster trade for Robertson. Damn we can get a haul for him. He is LIGHTS OUT!

He has no surplus value. THey'd be lucky to get a B prospect for him.

His stuff looks pedestrian, you must agree with that. He has to go down and start starting.

I officially nominate DA to replace Don Cooper.

 

F--- it, who cares at this point, can't get any worse.

Nice hitting by Melky today.

He is throwing 94-98 with an 89-91 slider. Stuff isn't his problem. It is pretty spectacular.
