Profar is picking up his power game.

That's good for I feel he will be at 2nd or 3rd before long

 

[Kelleyman]

Quite a turn of events 6-5 Rangers

And another turn. Unable to watch game as out of town.

Profar big game on eve of Andrus return Playing time based upon merit was what I heard[/QUOTE]

I'm sticking with sending IKF down, play Profar @ 3rd 50% of the time, see how EA looks and give him rest as needed, play him some @ 2nd, and DH a little too.

Don't look now, but Profar is only 4 RBI behind Maz.

 

[DT LUNA]

Our young guys just need some decent pitching to support them. Would make a big difference.

 

[donaldson79]

Wasn't Chavez supposed to be moved to a starting role at some point? Am I making this up?

 

[donaldson79]

Gallo's approach is disgraceful. Honest to Pete.

# 107 K's for Gallo this yr

Gallo's approach is disgraceful. Honest to Pete.

Not much to lose letting him continue trying to find the correct approach and if he doesn't, well you know.

 

[DT LUNA]

We may have found our future 1st baseman

But it doesn't necessarily have to be in Arlington in my humble opinion....Frankly, I'm more than fatigued with watching his BS approach.

I'd have his ass in the cage an hour a day learning how to bunt, slap hit to the left side, and if he gave me any attitude whatsoever, put his ass on a bus to Frisco.

This kid has a great approach at the plate and he's only 23. Plays an above avg 1st base too.

 

[DT LUNA]

Young Trevino has looked rather well I think.

 

[DT LUNA]

I'm out.

 

[donaldson79]

Young Trevino has looked rather well I think.

Here here.....We do have a few bright spots on this negative season for sure.

Take care partner.....get some rest.....We'll need ya tomorrow.

Over that time period Odor has a .703 OPS (.264 BA) and IKF is .560 (.212 BA), so not true

Profar's is .814 (.244 BA) BTW

Factoring in defense, IKF is the 3rd most valuable batter on the roster in terms of WAR behind Choo (2.1) and Deshields (1.9) and 4th behind Hamels (also 1.9), yes ahead of even Mazara in 14 fewer games

I was referring to entire body of work.

Odor is still hitting around .210

I'm for sending Gallo down.

Which is going to be higher. His BA or his strikeouts.

There's the what have you done for me lately defense, and in that case Odor is making a case to at least play ahead of IKF but definitely not Profar, and especially after today

His entire 'body of work' doesn't make any difference.........He's hitting MUCH better now and that's not debatable.

I've been Odor's biggest detractor for 18 months....I'm trying to give the young man a break, plus recognize the facts.
