Series Thread: Phillies at Rangers (3/31-4/2)

[Justinkm83]

Knowing how much Wash loves to play his veterns, i say nope. Like somebody else mentioned unless Mitch gets hurt or JD tells Wash to play him, i don't see Choice getting much playing time.

I have to disagree with the last part. I think Wash really likes Choice. He seems like his type of player. I expect MM to be given some time here at the beginning, but I believe he'll be on a short leash.

The 4th OF on the Rangers generally ends up with a lot of playing time. Gentry got into 106 games last year and had nearly 300 PA and he was the 4th OF. I think it's probably early to be worrying about his playing time just yet.

There is no room for logic on this board...

I get emotional quite a bit, but I am trying to be more even keel. I get pissed in the moment and then try to step back and say "okay that game sucked, but let's not let it ruin our day."

Gimenez was designated for assignment. McCutchen called up. I liked him in ST.

Meh...Just another dumpster fire arm.

C'mon Chirinos. Keep JP on the bench!!!

Cannot really say I hate it given the situation.

Evan Grant @Evan_P_Grant Follow A half hour later, Yu Darvish is still throwing off a mound. This would qualify as an "extended" bullpen session.

Apparently he's going to start Saturday.

It's both surprising and not surprising. There have been lots of pitchers who throw hard but have no movement.

Think Mark Lowe cleared waivers too last week after the Indians or somebody waived him, was certainly happy to finally see him gone and so were the Angels fans

Was sad to see him leave LAA.

Okay that's just speculation he might start...

Elvis pitching and batting 2nd. Excellent.

For the Rangers or in the minors?


Nevermind. Just read your next one.

Thought I read Sunday from somewhere based on - 4 days rest from today = Sunday. (eventhough he's eligible to come back on Saturday).

I want to see what Williams can do on Saturday.

Gotta earn that extension somehow. Just glad his shoulder is up to it after not playing winter ball.

If possible, they think he doesnt need a "rehab" start. (since it was just a neck issue).

So any day starting w/Saturday (depending on how he feels after today that is)...he could start.

Williams? You mean Martinez?
