Jake Rogers has one hell of a forehead. Should probably put Urshela there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kreidler stays healthy 30 days in a row, maybe, but I will have to see that to believe it........ The Rendon Plan is supposed to work like this. Sign the fat contract THEN get hurt and THEN after getting your guaranteed money tell the fanbase baseball isn't important to you. Kreidler messed up the order.

No matter who starts at SS, who is on the roster now, Javy should be a defensive replacement in later innings with the lead. That was lazy managing.

That’s makes sense on paper, although it is offset somewhat by the inherent advantage new pitchers have when they come into the game at first.

Sure, as well as playing handedness or hitting type matchups. But that rewards could be all for naught if a reliever just ain't got it that day. That's the risk.
