And Robinson strikes out. Inconceivable isn't it? :doh:

He has poise. This guy will be our UIF for the future. To me his play is going to be the insurance we need to move Profar whose arm weirdly enough has proven suspect. Perhaps he is now a better fit at 2nd for any team

I wonder if Rua said or did something behind the scenes that upset management.

I think they want to see what the new guy can do

I’m glad Odor has been discussed.

I would send him down to the minor leagues until he demonstrates some success and consistency there. Bring him up, and if it doesn’t continue, I’d use him as a bench / role player.


Sadly, I already like IKF and profar much better than him.

I wonder if Odor has some rehab time just like DDJ did maybe a bit more. We really need to root for him to get better because he is entrenched in this teams chemistry

I understand that. But the point that me and others have stressed is how many more chances is this guy going to get?

A lot of teams wouldn’t play a guy who takes no walks, hits around .200, with poor defense for very long. Why should we?

Oh right or wrong he will get more chances and his teammates are pulling for him. He hit 30 hrs so that counts for something. I just hope he improves

Chemistry isn't that significant until we are contenders again. By that time, we have time to rebuild chemistry without Odor and Beltre.

Maybe it will count for trade value.

Didn't see it. Enlighten us please.

Sorry, had a busy weekend.

Guzman was called out on a play where he appeared to be safe (thereby extending the inning), and IKF had a Ball 4 called a strike, which resulted in him eventually flying out instead of being on base like he should have been.

Since your baseball analysis are based entirely on knee jerk reactions and short sightedness, that really doesn’t carry much weight.

My opinion on the matter seems to align with the consensus on this board tho. I’m assuming that doesn’t carry much weight either?
