tntoriole Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 We can’t keep running this rookie out here hitless for weeks.. maybe the guy , Davis, they signed to minor league deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony-OH Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Oy, Rogers has no out pitch. So while they're trying to get him more velocity, may be teach him a pitch that misses bats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsFanSinceThe80s Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 (edited) 3 minutes ago, EddeeEddee said: Even the top young guys need time to adjust. The gap between AAA and MLB is maybe as big as ever. It's tough between the electronic strike zone being used at AAA and then relying on the human element to call balls and strikes plus any decent pitcher isn't going to stay in MILB very long these days.

Tony-OH Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Wonder what the ERA of pitchers acquired at the trade deadline by Elias over the last two years? When do we start questioning the pro scouts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet Elias was desperate and now we’re stuck with him for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Firestone Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 5 minutes ago, Tony-OH said: I'm a big Mayo believer, but he's not even hitting very hittable 94 MPH fastballs. Seems like the moment is a little too big for him so far. Not the first rookie we've seen look like a deer in headlights when they arrive, but disappointing none the less. I cant disagree and wont.
