Rodo looks like he's on his game.

Carlos Rodón has moved back into 1st place in the NL with 225 strikeouts

aaaand a two run bomb off rode....

tie game B3

 

[Stokes1931]

Villar with the two run bomb

4-2 Giants

I like this Villar kid. He's already hit 7 homers in 129 AB. That's almost a 30 HR pace for a full season.

2 run VR bomb and we have the lead back.

Rodo is leaking oil tho...lots of pitches, he's walking guys.

Between AAA and the majors, David Villar has blasted a combined 34 home runs in 2022

Rodo with the SDI B4....

but he's at 82 pitches.

Five and dive.

 

[tzill]

Rodo pooping the mound B5...

5-2 good guys, but looking shaky.

I'm taking the dog for a walk.

 

[Stokes1931]

Why Marte is on this team, even in this lost season, is beyond me.

He is a useless POS. not a piece for 23

Still, Rodo had to go deeper in the game than that.

 

[Stokes1931]

Now if Shelby Miller can keep figuring it out, he might be a piece for 2023.

 

[tzill]

I think this Davis guy is a keeper

 

[tzill]

What we learned:
1. Miller might be a piece
2. Davis might be a piece
3. Villar might be a piece
4. Wynns might be a piece
5. Marte IS a piece...of steaming crap.

I do not like Wynns. I have no idea why they are pushing him so hard. I hope he is DFA’d/non-tendered/whatever in the off season, but based on the amount of 0T he is getting, I fear they go into ‘23 with him as the #2 catcher.

And yes. Marte is a bum who does not belong on a major league roster. No clue why they have had such a looooong leash for him but Jimmy Jack everyone else.

Marte has been questionable from the beginning. Yet they show incredible patience that is not given to almost any other rookie (not even Bart).

He'll go through free agency first.
