You have to be a really bad person / moron to have pitched that well... for Texas... and still get kicked off the team.

There is tea in China.

Agreed. As bad as Texas has had it as a rotation... you have to be a dirtbag of a human being to get dumped with a 3.88 ERA.

The sky's still blue.

Incidentally, on the day the Rangers dropped Ponson, I also dropped a full can of Coors Light on my foot (perhaps in subconscious salute to Sir Sid). The bruise is completely gone now.

The bigger question is 'what in the world is BBA doing with a Coors Light'?

      Bullpen 2024

      By interloper · Posted

      Hyde has not been shy about saying the bullpen needs to be better in his post-games, which says to me the org knows it's an issue. I expect Mike is keenly aware of the weakest part of his team. As he should be since he did virtually nothing to address it, lol. Love Mike overall, but none of what we're seeing is a surprise, and he should have done more.  All that said, there are a lot of moving parts happening soon, hopefully, if the injured SPs can make it back, and Perez. This feels like a very temporary bullpen right now.

      Let’s not go overboard here.  We are seeing a lot of encouraging things. That’s great.  Could he be better than Kremer or Irvin or Wells?  Sure, it’s possible. But we have a long ways to go before we can get there.  For now, you keep running him out there and see how good he can be.

      Let me get this straight - the thought of optioning an underperforming Hays is poor people management, but giving Heston a few weeks to see if he sticks is proper people management?

      There were 18 players in all of MLB who had an OPS of .850 or higher last year. I don't think people realize that is a pretty high bar.

      I think Kjerstad has a fair shot to go 5-for-5 rest of the week while regulars get rest for transcontinental flights and the Yankees series, but with health it'll probably be RF Santander, 1B Mountcastle, DH O'Hearn Monday against Clarke Schmidt.

      Yeah, he's getting a lot of whiffs which is good. I'm still dubious that he's going to be a long-term piece for the whole season as a starter and I'd love to eat crow because if he can help in an area where we need it, that would be huge. Stuff was a tick down from the first start but he was getting some uncomfortable swings.  He'd most certainly be better out of the pen than Ramirez or Baumann.

      I think “Silent J” could be one of the all-time great nicknames. Who originated it?
