I want to see LMJ and Fister get some more time at the plate. Lance looked solid in that D-Backs series.
Would love to see him on the road with Blum and allow Blum to call home games with Brownie. Ashby is bad enough on the road, but pair him with Brownie and it gets worse. Brown will be in the middle of a sentence and Ashby will just cut him off and basically finish it for him. Drives me insane.
No more analysts/former players as PBP guys. Get a PBP guy... and let the analysts do their thing. Bob Ford (radio guy) did great on TV. Eshenfelder was also solid. Stanton/Blum/PBP guy could do a 3-man team if needed.
Yeah. Because Stanton also offers decent insight (as he was a former player)... but when you have your PBP guy constantly putting in insight, it gets complicated, as you see with Ashby now. JD never did PBP.
In Rangerland, Mazara butchers a 1-out double in the RF corner, runner takes 3rd (faster runner would have scored). Groundout to SS scores the gimmie-run for KC.
Stating the obvious, but Marisnick plays CF-less with Gomez because he couldn't handle moving... he'd feel disrespected like Maxwell with Clyde. Doubtful Hinch even suggested the idea to Gomez.
