The Brendan Rodgers experiment is infuriating.
His days have to be numbered.
He was really interesting coming out of college. Some teams had him as a top pick (obviously Oakland took him super high), but there were other dissenters on the advanced analytics side who saw him as a round 3ā4 talent. The bet with him was that heād continue to do exactly what he did in college without impressive bat speed or exit velos, without drawing many walks, etc. And heās done exactly that. Heās in that category with Arraez, such a fun kind of player.
Wait, what? Glenn Wilson? Iām waiting to google this.
Theyāve had Whitcomb playing 2B almost exclusively this past week or so, I do believe the writing is on the wall for Rodgers
Wilsonās MLB bio says his dad is Jack Wilson. That name doesnāt ring a bell for me.
Oof, yeah. Thatās a sign if ever there was one.
Long time ok SS for really bad Pirates teams
Lance is dealinā this (6th) inning. Impressive.
Dubon hitting for Walker.
Just what we need. Walker out
12ks for Lance and 6 innings pitched.
Need the good guys to come back and make his quality start count.
What happened to Walker? I was working.
HBP on his right hand his last AB.
I was drawing a blank. I remember him now.
I have a bad feeling about Walker. The way he yanked his hand away from the trainer and didnāt offer it backā¦.
ā¦and of course it happens right after he starts to turn things around.
that was a tough take, Jake. glad it worked outā¦
Was thinking the same.
Dubin looks a bit like Colin McHugh out there. Until he starts his manic windup, that is.
