He can still hit mid 80s on the radar gun.:myteamownercanstrikeoutyourteamowner:
I doubt it, unless they are facing a 2-0 deficit.
Even if they are, he's not pitching game three. They've got Garza there.Pitching Price on short rest would mean a game four start instead of game five.Normal rest...1: Price-Lee2: Shields-Wilson3: Garza-Lewis4: Davis-Hunter5: Price-Lee
That's what happens when you do something stupid like start Rocco Baldelli and his 25 plate appearances in the 6 hole.Bases loaded, 2 outs, bottom of the first.KBall gameWhy he's on the post season roster instead of Willie Aybar is beyond me.
You get to him in the first, and you have no idea what happens after that. Someone beside of Baldelli gets a hit and the inning is still going and maybe you put up 3-4 in that inning. And whether it cost them the game today or not, it's still an idiotic roster move.Because what happens in the 1st determines the rest of the game?Rays lost by 4
Yep. Honestly I didnt even know he was playing this year.How the #### does Rocco still have a job in MLB? He was terrible last year with the Sox and he can't stay healthy to save his life.
I know you've bandwagoned the Yankees, but your Raiders super-duper fanbase isn't exactly packing their stadium either.It was pretty full today. Saw some empty seats in the third deck, but those are higher than hell. I imagine the scalpers bought them and couldn't flip em. It was a good crowd, but the Rays gave them nothing to cheer for at all. Dismal game.Raider Nation said:
Don't care if he sucks or not. At least he's seen Lee in the last 5 years. Baldelli hasn't faced Lee since 2005.Aybar vs Lee 4-12, 1 double, 2 RBIAybar vs Wilson3-5 with an RBIAybar also had a great post season run in 2008 batting .353, with a .949 OPS, while Baldelli hit .200.Baldelli being on this roster is a joke. I don't even buy the perceived upside. He only played 23 minor league games this year for christ's sake. The perceived upside went out the door in September when they sold the 12 extra tickets the local goombas bought when they called him up when rosters expanded.
Quite frankly, Pena should be sitting against all lefties. That particular move is long overdue. Not sure about Jennings, but why not? Really no better options for the team against LHP.
