    People forget how young he still is. He has crazy talent, but he hasn't come close to refining it really yet. A switch hitter with his wheels that can play 2B/SS/3B/LF/CF has serious value on the bench.

    Had a .787 OPS against LHP coming into tonight too. Real interesting guy if he can keep his mistakes to a minimum.

    Kaz needed that break at the top of the 7th. Who wants to bring him out for another?

    Very surprised. Texas radio announcers are pretty good and fair.

    I still think Vilar is a regular SS in the majors, only need to be consistent with the throws as he covers a lot of ground and has a great arm, plus top speed and can hit from both sides of the plate.

    By the way, Kazmir has pitched great, only ONE bad pitch in 7 innings.

    You take out Kazmir. Top of the order for the 5th time through. You go to the bullpen.

    I would just not swing against Diekman and make him throw strikes.
