Series Thread: Let's keep our hot streak rolling against the Angelless Angels

[saddles]

Tepid was referencing that he could be the one to replace Choo/Stubbs. Since Stubbs isn't officially on the DL yet -- no move has been made.

My guess? (now that Hoying is up) --- Profar comes up to replace Stubbs (but play 2B while Odor is suspended)...and Cordell will be promoted to AAA.

At one point I believe JD said they might send a pitcher down to make room for another infielder when Odor starts serving his suspensuon.

Everyone might hate it, but the only way Fielder is ever going to turn it (if he even can) around is with Beltre behind him in the order

Hopefully Hoying can do work tonight

#Rangers RHP A.J. Griffin is still at least a week from throwing off mound. He's throwing from 80-90 feet. Could be 3-4 weeks b4 return.

My guess is Profar gets some time at 2B, Cordell in AAA since Hoying is already here and on the 40 man now

Do they usually pull a player from a AA game just because he is going up to AAA though? Maybe they do and I have just never noticed it. Maybe it is just in case they decide to DL Stubbs. Hard to tell.

And the doctor may never find a knee. Sad, he wants to play in 2017 but I wouldn't have him as a DH.

Can't be much worse than what they are running out there every night right now...
The Rangers have a DH...that doesn't "H" very much. That's a problem.

 

[saddles]

I know everyone is happy to know this.


Actually, I am ready to see if he has anything. He sure did at one time. I definitely won't get my hopes up though.

Hope he will be ready. We need that kid.

It will be interesting to see what the 40 man move is in a little while. Do they DFA Wilhelmsen or Claudio? Do they need Stubbs if Hoying is on the 40- man? A trade?

No rua tonight?

He & Hoying will probably split LF duties.... Rua vs. LH, Hoying vs. RH

Roster management wise it doesn't make sense to call Hoying up just to turn around and DFA him especially as well as he's been playing in AAA

Profar is the logical choice to replace Odor if they decide to DL Stubbs or just in general over Alberto

I think Rua has to be close to spectacular before Banny plays him on any kind of regular basis.

RHP tonight, Hoying is LHed

No, I don't think they would DFA Hoying. Why did you think that?

Not worried about his hitting. It's getting around the bases that concerns me on those knees.
