That's exactly what he said.

Oh....OK....wasn't grilling ya....just want more info than what's available apparently.

Jamey Carroll is saying the Reds and Rangers are in talks over Rios.

Wonder what pieces JD is trying to get them to send us in return.

 

[donaldson79]

That was one poor bunt attempt by EA for his second strike.

 

[Bmurph]

Score one for Hufflepuff! Potter blew it!

Screw Sogard!

It was a vague tweet. Wish there were more info.

Trade Rios for a sack of dirt. How do you not beat that out with your speed?

 

[DT LUNA]

Did Rios look like he was running hard?

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Beltre cold right now. It happens.

 

[romeo212000]

Well, made him throw some pitches at least.

 

[romeo212000]

Did Rios look like he was running hard?

Nope.

Did Rios look like he was running hard?

Yes

Slacking for certain

Did Rios look like he was running hard?

No.....But honestly....He never looks like he's running hard. I truly believe it's his style of running.

But don't get me wrong; he's not going to get too dirty either. And that's on offense or defense.

He glides out there, but I know for sure he's faster than what he showed on that run down to first.

Com'on Mik make those pitches count. It 's too hot

Exactly. It is how he runs. I don't think Rios to be someone who would not try his best. He is just very mechanical in everything he does.

 

[donaldson79]

For heavens sake Mikolas, throw the effing ball over the plate.

You just walked the 7th place hitter and it's 100 degrees. Surely you've noticed.

No kidding. Take a page from Williams and go after these guys. He is not doing himself any favors.

@OrtizKicks: Many of the Astros feel the front office doesn't care about winning now. That's a huge burden that Jeff Luhnow must overcome. Huge burden.
