BBQ cookoff at the Grill: KC @ TEX 5/10-12

[DTC]

Have to think Semienissue is between the ears. Likely putting too much pressure on himself

Usually a fun loving call up loosens things up methinks

Yeah definitely between the ears. Dude has proven he has talent. Still in great shape. Still has good bat speed and power. Just trying way to hard. Dude needs to figure it out tho. He’s getting paid big $$

 

[saddles]

In hindsight we should have signed Castellanos, Seiya and Rodon instead of Gray, Semien, Calhoun & Brad Miller lol

We might be better to wait until we get a lot further down the road before we look back to see which scenario would have been better. I wasn't too crazy about signing Semien when we signed him, but I will give him awhile before judging what we got.

It he has two good years over the next 4 years it will be about what his history says to expect.

I agree, just being facetious

both he and Seager are use to having a set and good hitting order around them and they don't have that here so they have put too much pressure on themselves trying to carry the team

 

[DTC]

which Ranger hitter is going to stand out tonight?

 

[Kelleyman]

Semien had basically a MVP year. Even with outstanding prospects this is not a deal that we should be ready to flush down the toilet.
We have talent in the minors and hope they can flex pulling a new starter for CF, LF, DH,3B and maybe 1B. That is 4-5 holes at a minimum.
Those bikes are hurting our offense

Quite notably it will be Kole Calhoun.....0-4
LOL

 

[Kelleyman]

My money is on Semien or Heim

Seager

Semien not playing

 

[Kelleyman]

Semien not playing

Oops meant Seager

 

[Kelleyman]

He pitched around Seager
Hope Garcia makes him pay or dress a walk
Not much protection as of now

 

[saddles]

Would be a good time for Adolis to go deep.

He does not and here comes Kole This is a problem but maybe he can come through. As they talk about his intangibles lol

 

[DT LUNA]
