Snore.....

 

MDs are giving Matherlys posts to insomniacs!

Just funnin ya Matherly. You're one of the coolest ones here.

 

You're going to drive up his NIL fee if you keep pumping him up.

Go GATORS!

His role is just as important as a starting role. Maybe more important, because he has influence in so many more games. Not being a starter here doesn’t mean he can’t be a starter in the bigs either. Dunning moved through the minors as fast or faster than any of the other guys on that team, and he’s a potential starter in the bigs. Rangers plan to start the season using him in long relief, but have said he’s a starter, and may move back to a starting role during the season.

He’s going to be asked to play many different roles in his career. If he shits the bed anytime there’s rumors of a potential role change, he’s going to have a short career. *not implying I think this is what happened or what will happen in his career. I think he just had a bad night, and that happens. He also didn’t get a ton of help from his d*

 

Boy some of the stuff you read on here lol.

 

On a positive note, I have to say how impressed I was with Waldrep's performance tonite vs Ga. He didn't get the win, but 7 solid inn and only 1 run on 3 hits. Second outing in a row he's gone 7 and saved the pen. Finally pitching like I thought he would.

Also, Sproat gave us 7 solid in game 1 and probably deserved a better fate. He gave up 4 earned runs on only 3 hits in 7 inn for a game ERA of 5, but that was a great example of how one stat does not say how well he pitched. Sadly, he didn't get the win either.

 

I mean Neely is pretty clearly in line to start next year. He had a bad game, for better or worse he took his emotions out after the apperance. Mariano Rivera blew 80 saves when he was considered the best closer in the game. It was just a bad outing. Just need to limit that outing to a one off, the best in any profession shake off those bad games (pitcher, qb, etc). No one can have success every time at this level no matter what.

 

Time to go back to Langford and Cags at 2/3 IMO. Our offense hasn't been clicking since moving them up. Halter, Kurland or Robertson at lead off.

 

Thing of beauty!!! Love seeing our youngsters come through like Robertson did last night!!!

 

I get all of that. A lot of what was in my post had to do with the post I was responding to questioning whether Neely was in the right headspace because of rumors of a potential role change. I said there’s going to be lots of role changes throughout a career and if that is what caused the poor performance, that’s not a good thing. I don’t think that’s what happened. I think the kid just had a bad night (plus a couple plays where his d could have helped tremendously and didn’t get it done). It happens to everyone.

 

Good idea as well.

 

Someone had to replace Milchin.
