    Temporarily? As needed to give him and Brown some innings off?

    Don't really know yet as far as I've heard.

    Pena's SLG is higher than Abreu.

    In the mother of all ironies, France is in line for the W.

    Singleton may strike out 1/2 the time but the other half would be better than Abreu.

    We're 2/3rds of the season through and we've seen zero improvement from Pena and J. Abreu at the plate.

    that's not saying much is it?

    both are struggling or not hitting up to everyone's expectations.

    This is such a huge game, keeping the Yankees right where they started, 5 1/2 games back of us. Time is starting to run out for them.

    That's a completely insane statement you just made.

    Rangers already 5-0 on the Marlins. Another sweep for them.

    Added JV and Urquidy to the rotation, France to bullpen and Bielak to AAA.

    Yeah Abreu's .811 OPS the previous 2 months didn't help us at all.

    He's had an abysmal week, but it stupid to suggest he's shown "no improvement"

    That's the point

    Rangers have two similar players but we have Maldy bringing up the rear.

    That doesn’t seem fair; everyone’s been b****ing about him in this thread the whole time

    It's not saying anything actually.

    56 RBIs vs 39. I mean that's not close.

    Y'all need to stop talking out of the side of your ass.

    Not you, the other dude.

    Ahhh yes, the infamous (which means "more than famous") "he can't possibly be worse" fallacy.
