I'm confused. Weren't a lot of people screaming for Cedeno to be demoted to AAA?

 

I can't keep track of who wanted Cedeno, Izturis, or Theriot manning SS...

 

RHIAB has some sort of weird vendetta against Theriot.

That's another play Ronny Cedeno probably makes.

 

Are you serious??? Dude, didn't I show you earlier that Cedeno was a much worse SS in the minors than Theriot was?

 

I've seen Cedeno make that play a few times this year-that kind of ball is when he usually does his little spin move.

 

Ok yah, I agree Cedeno has more range, but Theriot's defense isn't nearly the liability people are making it out to be.

 

Maybe not, but that's 3 plays already tonight where a SS with more range makes plays. Theriot needs to improve upon that if he intends to stick there.

Perhaps the "smart managing" thing to do would be to play Izzy or Cedeno when Marquis and Zambrano pitches. And Theroit when the others who don't pitch as many groundballs, pitch.

Theriot's the best of the options. Cesar has been a complete flop offensively and defensively. Ronny might be a suitable backup, but he hasn't shown that he's a prime time player.

 

I'm willing to give Theriot more than a few innings to stick at SS.

No. But he's not the offensive savior a lot of people make him out to be.

 

I have no problem with him being on the team.

He prefers a guy with a .100 avg and .125 obp as opposed to one with a .339 avg and a .362 obp

 

Theriot isn't BAD at SS. He was obviously good enough to play it through college and halfway through the minors. People act like he's never played there before and I can't figure it out.

Yeah exactly, me too. One of those plays he just looked nervous. When he might have been able to make a DP. He's just not used to playing SS, and on the grand stage to boot. Give him atleast a few more starts to see if he gets comfortable. GO RAMMY!!
