  1. My guess would be the boss being cheap...and stupid. The whole team didn't hit last season so Candelario took the blame for everyone. I complained about it during the off-season and early in the season until I was told to give it a rest. But I still think it was a horrible and stupid mistake.
  2. Consistently is all he needs to work on. Power hitters are famous for slumps, he needs to keep them as short as possible.
  3. See? I told you to just have patience with Torkelson. He's still a kid...growing pains.
  4. It's his approach at 3rd base. He throws off the wrong foot pretty often and doesn't get much on a throw.
  5. I wonder if Bonderman is in shape? 🤣🤣
  6. What if Rodriguez and Lorenzen both get moved? More Wentz? And who's next up after him?
  7. The whole left side of the IF sucks. I mean, Schoop at 3rd base? Limited range and very weak arm.
  8. The way the game is going, a SP only have to give you 5 or 6 innings. Teams with the best bullpen are going to win more, if the manager uses them right.
  9. He's, like, our #8 SP on our depth chart. Maybe even ninth. But yeah, he sucked. But it was to one of the best offenses in baseball. Texas is pretty good.....
  10. Olson, Manning, Rodriguez, Lorenzen and Skubal. At least, until the trade deadline.
  11. Yeah, give Texas extra outs. Always a great idea.
  12. Manning was fine but Texas is slumping. We may have caught them at a good time.
  13. Nevin in LF and Haase on the bench? Hinch being a smartass.
  14. We actually won a game in Texas. I figured a sweep. Let's get at least a split.
  15. They only use a deadened ball when the Tigers are hitting. 😄
  16. Good article. I have been saying for a while that pitchers are (were) only conditioned to throw 100 pitches per start. Over that and it really strained their bodies. I was wrong, it's the intensity they throw with. Every pitch has to be max effort now.
  17. If Boyd is out, well be down to 3 starting pitchers. 4 with Manning. Hurry up Skubal and Rodriguez. And we can keep Olson up and send Wentz down to keep him sharp.
  18. Didn't somebody release him when they signed Chafin? Arizona?
  19. I didn't think there was even a chance to win this game as Boyd left the mound, injured. But....baseball.
  20. They promoted Keith to Toledo. Who gets 3rd base playing time there, him or Maton?
  21. Oh, I agree. He's very inconsistent. We'll know what we have by the end of next season. I'm just not sure it's time to run him out of town yet.
  22. Is there a dome for the Ranger games? I mean.....
  23. True. But it's really hard to give up on a 23 year old. Patience....it's not like he's blocking anyone. Unless they give Maton a 1st baseman glove....lol
  24. I don't agree. Tork has saved several errors with his excellent scoops of bad throws.
