Lineup tonight:

Choo RF
Andrus SS
Mazara LF
Beltre 3B
Odor 2B
Gomez CF
Lucroy C
Napoli DH
Gallo 1B



My first thought was Beltre won't see anything good to hit with odor behind him.

Odor probably won't see anything good to hit either. Won't stop him from swinging at it though!

Kozma sucks, but his biggest benefit is that they don't care about his development and he's fine being a guy who may not see action for 5 straight games. With guys like Profar or Robinson, they want them being able to play and further develop.

If Alberto was healthy, he'd be here and Kozma not, but absent that, he's a fine guy to have around.

Kozma sucks and they don't have anyone else they don't care about wilting on the bench that can play the positions they need a body for.

He's not on the roster because they see anything interesting in him; he's just a cheap waiver claim pick-up to allow younger guys to develop in the minor leagues.

No kidding. Not sure why the opposing pitcher throws him a single strike the rrest of the year.

But even that is beside the point -- it's not like Robinson has shown any legitimate long-term signs of being a guy that is going to be an everyday big leaguer. He was a good, but not great minor leaguer, and he has played in 1 major league game.
Actually, he has 2 GP.

AND... he is on pace to hit 81 HRs.

Assuming he doesn't miss any significant time, it looks like Beltre will get to 3,000 somewhere in late July (home vs. Baltimore and Seattle) or early August (away at Minnesota). I'll say August 2nd against Seattle.

August 12th. Same night we retire Pudge's number. Will be a sellout

I understand about you guys complaining Odor but I think he's just pressing way to hard because of that new contract. I know y all remember the year after Elvis got that contract he was just God awful. He's obviously settled down and no one here would say he's overpaid with the way he's played the last couple years. I think Odor will live up to his contract but it's probably going to continue to be a rough year for him.

Turned on the game, just as Andrus started his swing. Got to hear Raymond's electrifying call.

Too bad we cant have Ortiz tackle Beltre to keep him from trying to leg out doubles. Get worried every time I see those ancient hammies and calves making am attempt

Yeah, Beltre about the only guy on this team that I have no problem going gingerly into second base and getting tagged out.

Hoping this is just rust with Hamels cuz he looks like ***** Lucky he's only given up 2 runs.
mhayden

Interestingly enough it's his control that looks the worst... which wasn't really the problem before.

Bad control AND bad stuff is... yuck. Still a positive addition to the rotation though.

From what I've read, it's his changeup that he hasn't been able to "re-discover".

Just turned the game on to hear them say he's not at his best but gets the good pitches when he needs them.

SO GLAD I didn't have Carassco in the game for my FBB team.

Never bet against the Rangers.

He's had several hard outs. Hoping he finds his command and get us through the 6th.

It's pretty damn obvious there's something different about the baseballs this year. Balls are flying out.

Smart play was to first - but Lucroy wasn't covering the plate so Elvis didn't even have the option.

Man, I really thought I'd love Lucroy - but talk about a guy that seems to be very, very bad fundamentally as a catcher.

Frickin Lucroy with his head up his ass. I know we're up 7 runs, but realize who is on third. Elvis had him easily if Lucroy covers home.

At this point, I dont know why he's getting more PT than Chirinos.

Well, other than Banny gonna Banny.

I feel like this is often the case with Dave Raymond
