That has to be the quickest review ever.

Odor thats sloppy

Odor has been complete shit at the plate tonight.

I think we keep Choo. I think they would've looked to deal him if he hadn't made such a dramatic turn around.

I think it all depends on who they have in mind as a replacement. He will be at his highest trade value this offseason so if they are going to replace him soon they might go ahead and trade him. It may be determined on if they are successful signing a free agent or it might depend on when they think Mazara will be ready.

Takes a pitch down the middle then swings at garbage.

We'll need a LF very soon. Mazara to LF. Choo stays IMO.

Stfd correa.

If Gallardo is in the playoff rotation we'll be seeing exactly this

In the postseason with the stakes higher and the opposition better he might be replacing him in the 3rd inning instead.

way to come back and get him Ohlie

Maybe. Probably try to get four out of him. I think it depends on which team we're facing. If Toronto, Gallardo gets the ball. If KC, Perez gets it.

He never saw the ball on the pitch he swung on, for strike 2. His eyes weren't close to on the ball, he was looking in the damn Crawford boxes.

He and Brinson have looked good. Brinson did very well with each promotion.

Brinson may be pushing DDJ very soon.

STFD Johnnie Rambo!

That couldn't have been fun for Rasmus.

I was thinking in LF they go with Hamilton/Rua/another offseason acquisition until Gallo is ready at some point in 2016. I also still wouldn't mind them going after Cespedes. One important factor could be just what they could get for Choo. The OF situation should make for an interesting offseason. Lots of things to speculate about now. We could very well wind up with Hamilton , DeShields and Choo in the OF again next year.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Diekman has looked much better in his last few outings. Maybe It Is because they are using him for a batter or two and not an entire inning.

 

[DT LUNA]

One more ins. run will look real good about now

 

[Bmurph]

got it on the end?

I'd say that's a fairly safe bet. When Hamilton inevitably goes down to an injury either Gallo or Brinson gets the call. Still not sure where Gallo sticks long term. I think the rangers are happy enough with their OF prospects to avoid spending in FA this winter.
