Is the Silver Boot still a thing? TEX @ HOU 8/9-11

I thought they already announced he wasn't going to pitch any this year

They did send him to AZ and I hope they change their mind. He can pitch some mildly competitive games there

You wonder which I do too but it is all a tad irritating and everything Public is all for show and nonbaseball. SMH

Sure hope they don’t baby Rocker

I suspect they will baby him next year as well.

he is throwing just not in games. expect to see him and Porter at ST and then both go to AA

I still think it potentially stunts Rocker development. His inning count is not high and gives him some more game experience prior to AA

I think he will get experience before AA, just not this year.

A lot of knee jerking as usual. Guy does great then pom poms come out. Things go bad send him down or trade him or put him on the bench. This is the time we see what we have. Let Cole pitch at this level for a few more starts at least. Even Perez got torched in this series.

Yes let him pitch. No reason to bring guys up for two games and send them back down.
