I think Botchy er Bochy is done with Duran at 3B

It was only a few days ago folks thought they were done with him in LF.

I just don't understand what you are basing that conclusion on.

I don’t know maybe the fact he’s not playing very much

One doesn't have a whole lot to do with the other.

Huff is playing even less and they haven't moved him off of catcher or 1B.

Duran hadn't played any 1B earlier this year and yet when they needed someone to play for Lowe, there was Duran playing 1B.

Then why hasn’t he been playing?

Hard to fault Semien’s game but as a leadoff hitter it would be nice to work the count a little.

He hasn't been playing because he has been in Bochy's doghouse. I said that earlier. That really has nothing to do with the conversation you commented on though.

Okay

 

[saddles]

Glad to hear he is more than a bat.

Walking a .219 hitter. This is where problems start.

 

[scotsman1948]

10 Rangers, 3 innings and 1 ball out the infield.

That is one thing Grossman is good at.

 

[DT LUNA]

Ryu looks like a pitcher easy to hit. Guess not.

Very true.

Lowe is the only one to get ball out of the infield so far

 

[Senator_fan]

10 Rangers, 3 innings and 1 ball out the infield.

And 2 pitches and it’s 2-0.

 

[scotsman1948]

Changed quickly Grossman hr

 

[fanman8825]

Duran continues to swing at pitches out of the strike zone. His lack of patience is so frustrating.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Changed quickly Grossman hr

Grossman has been very productive the past week being a part of big innings.

 

[DT LUNA]

Better score more runs while pitching is good.

 

[scotsman1948]

Both pitchers are being effective
