That slider he got Torres to look at was just mean. He really likes using that change up against lefties too.Quote:

It does look like Merryweather will be closer, though I wouldnt be surprised if they just go with matchups. Possible they went with Romano against the top of the lineup.Quote:

I just hope they don't overthink it. IMO both of them might do better with defined roles, Roman has had control issues and Merryweather health issuesQuote:

Grich with winning RBI's in both wins. Holdiing the Yanks to 8 er's over three games is pretty impressive, especially with our 8th/9th starters in two games.
Looking forward to seeing our top three break out. Hopefully we see our true offense in the next series .
We'll see as the season goes on. One may be more suited than the other in a specific role.Quote:

The pen is looking great to start the season. Atkins sure knows how to build a great bullpen. Dolis is the wild card though. If he can get his control down, he’s another solid arm. Surprised to see Thornton in there but I guess Stripling is the spot starter.Quote:

Agreed. Couldn't understand the posters who wanted him gone. To me, an .800 ops bat with above average defense, and 30 homer power is pretty valuable. If Rowdy doesn't come around soon, we can rotate our OFers through the dh spot until he gets back in a groove.Quote:

I see what you did there.Quote:

Nice to get out of that.
I know that Rangers suck but Matz looks really good
