GDT 4/15: Time to turn it around

I wanted someone like Shaw to be insurance in case Riley failed (Lamb was clearly supposed to be that guy), and it looks like the calls for Panda to be just that are going to get louder.

Here's the thing. We got Donaldson to play like an MVP. Ozuna to play like an MVP. Starting Panda will inevitably get his classic playoff performance once we are in the playoffs.

I was a Shaw supporter and a Panda avoider, but it is what it is and Sandoval has played very well.

Every time I see a pitcher with a pause in his motion when the ball is extended behind him, I wonder if batters can see the grip and know what's coming.

I wonder that, but I also wonder if raises the percentage for arm problems. It would seem to stop the build up in momentum resulting from the wind-up.
 
jose ramirez. Indians get Waters, Langeliers, Shuster, Wright and Riley. Does that get it done?

Eugenio Suarez. Reds get Waters, Touki, Davidson. Does that get it done? Reds have two other 3B just as good. Maybe upgrade Touki to Wright if they have to take Ender to pay for Suarez's salary.

I will say this bullpen is struggling without a healthy Martin. He's so important to keep things flowing.

Agree.
But everyone said before the year he was the only RH anyone trusted and he's injury prone.

I know they want to keep some guys stretched out. I know Touki is on the IL. But don't we need Wright and/or Wilson here?

Same. Plus, it reminds me of watching Hanson, which was the equivalent of watching a plane crash in ultra slow motion.
 
Can we try Newk as our new closer? lol Something no one thought anyone would be saying in April.
