Erod threw up zeroes because of two great plays by Bogaerts and Betts. Combined with a bad hitting Rangers team , except for Beltre, it was a very average start at best. 3-2 counts aplenty, 2 out walks and hit, leaving with 2 on base. 105 pitches for 17 outs.You are right , he is ok as a #4, just don't look for much against a good hitting team. You are also correct, Price is just an older version of the same stuff.
