We're really in uncharted territory here. I honestly have no idea at this point. Like you, I never expected him to pitch in the majors again. He's got to be down at least 20 pounds from his pre surgery weight. The notion that his velocity might improve as he is able to regain strength and muscle is a reasonable one, but not a sure thing.

From a pragmatic standpoint, perhaps Harry can take the long role pretty quickly. Have to think we are picking up a pitcher, with open roster spot although would not be surprised if it is a reliever.

They've explicitly stated they don't want Harry in the pen.

Granted but if they can't recoup money and as mentioned the offseason work helps with the velocity then perhaps theta can be a stop gap. Of course relief is not intended to be his ultimate destiny. He has nothing on his fastball tonight so far

That was unfortunate. Wonder if we should have squeezes seeing it was Martin

The Rangers can always be counted on to fail.

Leo was fortunate last time. He seems to keep hitting everything on the ground. Just hit it where they ain't the first time up. And there is nothing exceptional about Nova.

Believe it or not I think Elvis and IMO new leg kick had a decent chance of driving in a run

I'm so sick of extreme over shifts.

That ball wasn't going anywhere to begin with.
