    Rodon's WHIP is 1.64, but his ERA is 3.14.

    Dude has made escaping jams a habit this season.

    Larry Vanover's strike calls take too long.

    Don't think we're gonna need many runs to win this one, come on guys.

    Can't believe they're not going to be able to knock out Rodon... he's pitched tough, almost veteran-like.

    Reminds me of one of those seasons when we had Rogers Clemens and his ERA was under 2.00

    If only we were in the National league, he could supply his own run.

    Supplant half the roster! :p

    Remarkable to where they've gotten [but are now sliding back to the pack].

    Opening day/week rotation/lineup

    Keuchel
    <strike>Feldman</strike> McCullers
    <strike>Wojciechowski</strike> Oberholtzer
    McHugh
    <strike>Hernandez</strike> Velasquez

    Altuve
    Springer
    Valbuena
    Gattis
    Carter
    Castro
    <strike>Lowrie</strike> Correa/Marwin/Villlar
    <strike>Rasmus</strike> Tucker/Villar
    Marisnick

    Makeshift rotation and a hot/cold lineup. ON as a group and OFF as a group.

    Which is strange because he's been a broadcaster for over 15 years now...

    You could take somebody from another country who had never watched baseball before, and have him watch baseball for the same amount of time... from the same vantage points (press box)... and he'd be able to read fly balls better.

    And that's before even considering his years as a player... where I'm sure he watched his fair-share of fly balls.
