Maybe Dutch is more a NL league pitcher.....haha
You joke, but I did check on Corbin in that respect. His interleague numbers for his career are better than his overall numbers.

As far as Derek is concerned, since his resurgence during the second half of this year he has pitched 15 innings against AL clubs and has only given up 2 ER. Cole Hamels he isn't.

What are we going to do with DDJ? Thinking Gallo will be in CF and Calhoun will be in LF sooner than later

Maybe we keep him as 4th OF. Going to be interesting how rest of year plays out. Wonder if a guy like Heineman looks in ST

Would like to sign Corbin. Not sure Holland will help us.
Since making adjustments that were suggested by teammates Holland has an ERA of 2.21. He is a new pitcher.

I don't think Gallo can play there on a long term basis. A day or two here and there is fine. I wonder fi we try a stop gap for a couple of years.

I like Maybin or Pollock but to have a young guy man it is not bad. This is where I wish we had Brinson

Gomez could fill the gap until JPM, Thompson, or Taveras is ready.

I would not be against resigning him. He has made adjustments but of course I like Corbin better and I surely want to let some young guys pitch if ready

The way our team is shaping up I would like to pass on older and former players and stay on the path of younger players. There will be exceptions like veteran pitchers but what I see now is pleasing to the eye and young is key to contending.

There was a second adjustment as well. I can't remember what that was.

He was working angles off the rubber working inside and out. His velo is up a tick but not where he was in Prime. He has worked hard relentlessly and with humility. A great guy. Hope he does well

Loved Odor approach there. Might have been a triple

This guy for Oakland in CF is impressive. Let's find a guy like him

Looks like Elvis was on the left side of the base line all the way down.

Marteen coughs it up on 2 terrible straight pitches. So sick of this

Marteen has been a huge disappointment. In the beginning, he looked as if he would be a guy we would enjoy watching for a long time. He never got it together. A mental problem lead to his down fall and has not recovered.

Have plenty of pitchers to look at besides him. Just don't get it. He obviously needs a reset. If you are going to play Choo based on merit then he needs to be a blowout option and not treated aa a wining piece
