didn't we play a lot of games early in the season with the roof open
Yeah

We are not the one who decides if they are ready but I really think Taveras is safe to bring up. Wish I understood how they determine when ready.i understand but isn't it time to see if they're ready? or do we wait until next season? or the one after that?
i would also bring Crim up. we've had a taste of their talent why not more?
same here i don't know how they determine when someone is ready but it's pretty obvious that most of those i've mentioned dumping aren't ready for the biggiesWe are not the one who decides if they are ready but I really think Taveras is safe to bring up. Wish I understood how they determine when ready.
possibly with Castellanos and Suzuki. not sure that Rodon would be a long run better solution than Gray. not ready to give up on Semien based on his track record but i would have never signed Culberson and MillerIn hindsight we should have signed Castellanos, Seiya and Rodon instead of Gray, Semien, Calhoun & Brad Miller lol
Maybe they look at how he handles the really good pitching??We are not the one who decides if they are ready but I really think Taveras is safe to bring up. Wish I understood how they determine when ready.
stick him in CF and at the top of the order, give him 50-60 games and he doesn't cut it release him. but the fact is he can't be much worse than what combo of of'ers we're throwing out there now. and Thompson and Harris in LF can't be worse than the combo we have out there nowMaybe they look at how he handles the really good pitching??
I wonder sometimes if they keep track of success vs a good pitcher. A bad pitcher in AAA with a low k/9 and slightly lower velocity is light years worse than an avg pitcher in the MLB with a higher k/9 and 94 mph
So if Taveras is absolutely crushing it vs the crappy pitchers but sucking vs the good pitchers he may not be ready.
I’m hoping he’s ready though, I’ve been rooting for him for awhile and have always thought he would be a breakout player
You and I may be the only fans he has.Maybe they look at how he handles the really good pitching??

Ha just snap your fingers. It would have taken long term contracts.In hindsight we should have signed Castellanos, Seiya and Rodon instead of Gray, Semien, Calhoun & Brad Miller lol
my gut tells me that those 3 would do better that this damn rotation of Calhoun, Miller, Sloak, Reks and White has produced and i would fill more comfortable with Garcia in RF.Gotta point there lol

of all our signings this off-season, Kole is the worst and we need to DFA him and move onTavares in CF and Garcia in right give us a pretty good upgrade defensively.
What I heard was they want to be extra sure with Tavares so once he is brought up he never has to go back down. I surely hope they are not holding on to him for Calhoun sake
Agreeof all our signings this off-season, Kole is the worst and we need to DFA him and move on
Have to think Semienissue is between the ears. Likely putting too much pressure on himselfYeah, Seager wanted to not be the only one brought it.. castellanos, Suzuki and Rodon would have been the same thing I would imagine
