Sweeps and not getting swept is MORE important than winning series. This is what bugged me about Ozzie's Sunday lineups. Beat the crap out of losing teams. Never let up on them. Cleveland and Minnesota have kicked our asses but they never swept us so we only lose 1 game in the standings. You get swept, you lose 3 games.

a good base stealer like him isn't someone I'd want to walk with Moncada, Abreu, Eloy behind him

Man. Miguel Cabrera just looks done. And the Tigers still owe him $94 million over the next three years :lol:

Giolito seems to like him too. Could be a clue there.

Great series win to beat the teams you should beat.

I figured they'd lose the 2 games against the rookies but was pleasantly surprised. Now continue to play well against good teams.

Don't really have to. Not many good teams. It would be nice to jump ahead of the Indians though.

I get it. But it would be nice to knock the rust off of Dunning and see how good he can be.

As far as I'm concerned, Rodon is done. He's not effective when not getting a start every 5 days. He only gets command through regular work. At this point, either pen him or DFA him. He is of no use as a starter.

I totally disagree about Rodon. Way too early to write the guy off after an injury.

Collins had a good game. Looked like a real catcher. Not sure where the urge to give up on him for a try hard journeyman is coming from.

Because it was the first decent performance he's had. He's looked lost at bat and behind the plate.

Maybe getting steady playing time will help.

He just over 100 big league at bats, and he is about the only player on the roster will the skill set of a good batting eye/willingness to walk. He's barely caught, and he looked pretty good last night. It's a bit early to write him off.

He's not the hitter that Mercedes is. Far from it. As for his willingness to walk, that's because he has very little ability to hit. He's only laying because of Renteria's penchant for wanting left handed hitters in the line-up as witness the call-up of Delmonico who himself is a shitty hitter. And defensively, Collins is just plain bad. He doesn't shift on the pitches in the dirt but instead tries to glove them back-handedly.
