Does it seem our pitchers have problems when ahead 1-2 or 0-2 and then struggle to finish the hitter.

Not much to be done there, Rusin actually pitched very well in the 1st, he was hitting all his spots

My statement was far more big picture. Rusin actually isn't a bad pitcher.

As I understand you can, you can't be expected to pay all that money if he has no possibility of earning it bc of diminished performance due to injury
Would that be the case with Feliz then? His performance has certainly been diminished. Even Beltre up to this point seems to fit into that category.

Feliz doesn't have a contract that was protected by an insurance agreement, just simple arbritartion

Beltre's injury isn't career altering and you know that, apples and oranges

Every hitter in baseball knows he doesn't have one now.
Unfortunately that is why he has to pitch to contact or his pitch count escalates trying to put a guy away and not being able to

Arenado is a good defensive player as well.

Bacsik was going on and on yesterday about how much better the Rangers were on paper than the Rockies. Not sure what stats he was looking at, but as a far as their lineup. I don't buy that

This one is over in the 1st

Hey Bennie, remember when I said Nick would regress, and hard? Call me fuckin' Nostradamus, eh? Guess the peripherals did tell the story. We sabremetric zealots don't know anything huh?

0-2 FB. Great choice.
Yes that was a terrible choice. And into near enough inside. Not a pitch that jams. He has to keep the ball down. Just pitiful
