I watched him throw and was really disappointed. His pitches had no movement and got a lot of the white part of the plate.
But on the bright side, it looks like yesterday, he just did not have it. For whatever reason. A couple of adjustments and better location and maybe he can contribute this year.
As we look forward, do we have a bullpen that we can count on to get us critical outs at critical moments of games, or is the 7 to 6 loss to Seattle the true face of our bullpen?
The experts on the radio had us sending devers, Rodriguez, Velazquez, beeks and mata to Baltimore for manny.
Desperate dave does not build for tomorrow. He will burn us to the ground for a chance to win today!
I do not think it is fair to assume devers is a finished product after he was rushed to the major leagues. (Thanks desperate Dave!)
This year and next year, he is going to be developing into a more finished product.
I love the fact that he is working through his issues on offense and defense and I look for better results once he makes the adjustments needed.
I am extremely impressed with price’s ability to reinvent himself. He has just about mastered the cutter or splitter that he throws and it is becoming his new “out” pitch.
I don’t think there is any reason that pedroia should not be able to come back and be effective, once the knee is completely healthy.
If he has not damaged anything by coming back too soon, he should be fine!
I think it is completely unrealistic to think this team can have depth when desperate Dave has drained the farm system in order to load up on front line starters and anchored us with tons of dead money.
We may have more dead money on the books than the entire rays payroll!
Nice win tonight. Rodriguez looked really good. Command keeps improving and he is mostly hitting his spots.
Go beeks! Can not wait to see him throw. Hopefully the butterflies go away early and he has command control.
