Even with him platooning, I figure he'll hit 15ish homers for us. That would be pretty impressive, given he's never topped 9 in a season (and his next highest total is 6). True. But he was thought to have 25-30 homer pop coming up(did hit over 15 a few times in the minors) and I figure the change of ballparks helps a bit.
The Dodgers just dealt Harand and 4.2 mill to the Rockies for Ramon Hernandez, who was DFA'd a few days ago. Harang isn't a stud, but he's a fairly solid SP. Sending him alone for Hernandez is awful. Adding cash on top of it though?
Javy is 2-4, with a 2B and the HR. Soler is 1-4. Scott thru 5, 4H, 1UER, 0W, and 6K's. Facing McCullers Jr, who's looking very good. Amaya not in KC lineup, by the way.
At least Rizzo actually attempted to work a proper at bat. Eh, Starlin swung at a strike and took it to the warning track. Sure, it'd be nice if it came on the 5th pitch of the AB. But he saw a pitch he liked and almost got enough of it.......[expletive] Upton, that ball was killed.
