Time to clean this lineup up. Get rid of some guys

Suddenly Rodon has lost it

That sucks. He was dealing before he started losing his command.

Pull Rodon

Lock it down pen

Pen going to blow this one quickly

Ramirez and Saladino back to back. Gotta throw a semi competent bat in between them.

 

 

Perseverance.

 

Also this is why Robin is a terrible f***ing manager. He doesn't think before he puts a line up together.

 

Can't wait for Ramirez to be gone.

 

Just out of curiosity, what would you do differently?

 

Bat Sanchez 2nd with Melky between Lexi and Saladino. Bat Trayce between em? Avi?

 

You can't wait for Lexi to be gone but you're advocating one of those guys hit behind him?

 

Back to back Ks by Duke after the double

That's my f***ing dirtbag

Ramirez shouldn't be in the line up.

I can't complain about the lineup. It suck outside of a few guys.

Ramirez shouldn't be in the line up.

 

OK sooo, Saladino is out there as is Sanchez. Are you advocating Robin should be playing Beckham?

Yes.

 

Beckham sucks but atleast he plays team ball. Moves runners over and puts together competent ABs when he needs too.

Atta boy Nate.

Sit down Trumbo.

Ugh Avi is pure s*** right now

Yes.

He's also hitting a buck 41 in his last 61 ABs..... Meh, whatevs.

 

 

I can appreciate the fact that Trayce isn't getting worked over like most rookies, let alone ones that usually come through this system.

Try something different with his mechanics. This current approach will never work

4 good at bats

I do not think AVI will be much of anything but very average.

4 good at bats

Trayce is hitting it very hard. I'm interested to see adjustments teams make and how he adjusts

 

 

 

 

Ovah!

Sox win 4-2

Yes sir. But Rodon for President as well! He's special. Shut him down the rest of the year and let him enjoy this success.

Rodon pitched a total of 123.1 innings last year and this year he's at 122.2. As long as his arm, shoulder and finger (blister) are OK there's zero reason to shut him down. He,like any other young pitcher, needs to build up his innings and the only way to do that is to exceed the previous years totals. As long as Rodon is healthy, shutting him down would be stupid.

Edit: I was reminded in another thread about Rodon's innings total and I had forgotten about ST. He is getting up there in innings for a 22 year old in his first MLB season. If he stays healthy I would let him go to around the 150 mark and consider s***ting him down. I do think moving EJ into the rotation and getting starters an extra day off could help make it easier on Rodon, especially at the end of his first full season.
