Series Thread: Homecoming for Hamilton and the BoSox are in town

[Windingmywatch]

Pitching has a funny way of working itself out. However, I think one of Gallardo or Wandy gets moved at the deadline, especially if Harry is healthy and effective.

Both Gallardo and Rodriguez have to be moved (or perish the thought Colby) prior to the deadline or there aren't spots for Holland and Perez.

I don't expect Perez to re-join the rotation till later, and Holland isn't coming back till August.

Return of both Holland and Perez is going to be engineered around the trade deadline.

We'll see what their rehab progress has to say about that.

Odds of Harry taking ______ spot:

Colby? Not a chance.
Gallardo? Not until Gallardo traded prior to deadline.
Rodriguez? Ditto Gallardo
Martinez? Possible but not likely
Gonzalez: Most likely.

And after we figure out who Harry bumps ... who does Holland bump after the ASB? ... and then Perez?

Harry might bump Chi Chi ... but Holland and Perez are going to have to wait until Gallardo and Rodriquez are gone. TEX needs to keep them in the rotation to maximize their trade value. Means both of them are going to get the best defense and offense behind them as well.

To me this is all so wide open so it just depends on who is performing well on a consistent basis.

That's exactly right. Time will work a lot of this out.

Would it offend anyone if announcers in baseball parks wore nice Polo type shirts instead of coat/ties?

Buzz/TAG sure look better and more comfortable to me today.

Just wondering.

Hamilton given the day off. Not a bad idea.

Why would anyone ever wear coat and ties to the ball park?

 

[RevSader]

Damn...

 

[romeo212000]

Wandy needs to get that fastball down.

My bet is those guys certainly wouldn't. It's the required uniform to go to work apparently. Like it's 1986 and they have some IBM desk job or something.

Makes no sense.

They got two hits, and two of the outs were very hard hit balls.

 

[RevSader]

I love you DDJ....Never change.

 

[RevSader]

Thanks Houston...thanks so much.

Between Holland, Perez, and Harrison being possible replacements you would think they would be able to trade Wandy and Gallardo at some point in July.

Choo saw a lot of pitches, but that was a bad at bat.

 

[RevSader]

Choo...that was awful man.

 

[romeo212000]

Choo has cooled off big time since that little hot streak. Swung at 4 pitches way out of the zone.

He used to have a good eye. He got himself out there. Needs to at least move the runner.
