Moore has had 4 good outings in a row. I believe CJ was saying he'd K'ed 7, now 8, in his last 8 innings, with no walks and no runs.......Maybe the long man in the BP is where he needs to be....Lord knows starting wasn't his calling.

No one specific but love it to be Choo.

Yeah, I just assumed this is who you had in mind......But I'm telling ya, we'll miss that bat, and miss it a lot.....Don't get me wrong, I'm all for trading him too. Eat the salary and send him, hopefully, to a contending type team, and make a hole for players of 2020 and beyond.

3 of 4 while Oakland surges.

Should prove to be an interesting series. If pitching holds we will be tough. Big if though

I'm not sure I've ever witnessed a guy coming out of it like this.

It would have been appropriate. Exactly two months earlier -- on June 19 -- Banister benched Odor after a late, loud night out in Kansas City that also led to the demotion of pitcher Yohander Mendez and fines for Martin Perez and Carlos Tocci. Before the incident, Odor had started to dig himself out of an awful hole that had dragged on for more than a year.

Since: It has been a rocket ride straight toward the top. The homer was his second of two hits Sunday. He also had an RBI single in the first. He walked in the third, extending his career high total to 34. And then, with the rain falling harder and harder, Odor got ahead 2-and-0 against reliever Noe Ramirez while hunting for anything up to take the sinking fastball out of play. He found a changeup and drove it 418 feet to right-center.

It extended his slash line since his return from the benching to .328/.405/.620/1.024. His OPS ranks fourth in the AL behind the three guys likely to end up on the medalist stand at season's end: Cleveland's Jose Ramirez (1.132), Boston's J.D. Martinez (1.130) and Boston's Mookie Betts (1.048). He is tied for fifth in the AL in RBIs (39) and sixth in home runs (14).

Was the benching a factor?

"I don't really think about that," Odor said. "I just try to play the game every day."
