Rebuild done....It all starts with pitching
If they do that I wonder if they peg him as a relieverI winder if the Rangers will bring Teido up at some point this year. He will have to be added to the 40-man in a few weeks anyway.

I think if he can decide who starts and who relieves he can choose which position player will start. Not saying he would go overboard, but he might make a decision or two.To me CY decides who is active but Bochy decides who to play.
I imagine he would start as many innings as he would if he isn't called up because they would let him stay in Round Rock until their season is over. If anything they would just want to get an upclose look at him against MLB hitters for a few innings. I don't imagine the chances are that high though.If they do that I wonder if they peg him as a reliever
I think you underestimate Smith's arm to a degree and Langford's a good deal.Re next year squad
Lowe is out because he is not worth 10 million he likely would get.
Prefer Adolis at DH because he has lost a step or if. this changes that would be great and then Leody can be 4th OF or get moved and Adolis plays RF
Pray for Carter to be healthy and no longer fragile same with Jung
Need one more big bat
Smith can be UIF
Not big on Langford or Smith in CF due to arm. Carter is ok but will need big bark in RF
Other than catcher- all bats need to produce
7-9 should not be a black hole
can't think of a manager that would sit still if the GM started dictating who plays and who doesn'tI think if he can decide who starts and who relieves he can choose which position player will start. Not saying he would go overboard, but he might make a decision or two.
I definitely think JD did that.can't think of a manager that would sit still if the GM started dictating who plays and who doesn't
did we have a real manager when he was GMI definitely think JD did that.
Yeah, Wash admitted as much when JD told him to stop hitting Kinsler leadoff.I definitely think JD did that.
can't think of a manager that would sit still if the GM started dictating who plays and who doesn't
????and while CY is telling the manager who will play or not Josh Smith needs to start at least 140 games split between SS and 3B
I don’t think so. JD kept hiring managers that never managed before.did we have a real manager when he was GM
you brought up the scenario of him telling Bochey who to play I was just adding my personal opinion????
You said CY should tell Bochy that Smith should play. You took my opinion and added another player using the same opinion. Then you indicated a manager wouldn't sit still for that. You seem to be contradicting yourself. That is what had me puzzled.you brought up the scenario of him telling Bochey who to play I was just adding my personal opinion
sorry, i didn't realize that i wasn't allowed to add to your scenario. personally i don't think the GM should dictate playing time to the managerYou said CY should tell Bochy that Smith should play. You took my opinion and added another player using the same opinion. Then you indicated a manager wouldn't sit still for that. You seem to be contradicting yourself. That is what had me puzzled.
"while CY is telling the manager who will play or not Josh Smith needs to start at least 140 games split between SS and 3B"
I think I am just comparing their arms to DuranI think you underestimate Smith's arm to a degree and Langford's a good deal.
I think Duran might have a better chance to play CF than Smith though. Just a hunch.
This was Joe Maddens beef lolcan't think of a manager that would sit still if the GM started dictating who plays and who doesn't
