Texas Rangers at Dbacks Series Thread

[Dback Jon]

Let's win another series!

Tall order tonight against Nick Martinez. He closed out his rookie campaign pitching very well and hasn't yield an earned run in his two starts.

I think they're gonna struggle with the Mendoza triplets batting 7-8-9. Tuffy or Ahmed is bad enough, both of them in the lineup together is turble.

 

[devilalum]

and sandwiching a good hitter in between those 2 is stupid. That guy'll never see a decent pitch.

Yup. Until either get going, it is better to concede an inning

 

[Chris_Sanders]

We win and I will be there to watch it.

After a spring training filled with reports about how bad he looked at third base Yasmany Tomas is making his MLB debut at the position tonight, as the Diamondbacks placed regular third baseman Jake Lamb on the disabled list with a stress reaction in his left foot.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Ouch - that is baaad news. What happened?

They're calling it a "stress reaction", which is far less serious than a stress fracture.
It sounded to me like they were describing Plantar Fasciitis... Hale says it could be due to the way he runs - which is uniquely rough on his feet...

 

[BC867]

'Hate to lose Lamb. He our 3B of the future. Hopefully, he can pick up where he left off.

Meanwhile, Yasmany finds himself with a real opportunity. If he fulfills it with a power bat, he could easily make Trumbo expendable in the middle of the order and in RF.

Career Minor Leaguer Danny Dorn called up

Not sure Lamb DL stint is serious. He's only on the 15 day DL and I think it's being done to give Tomas reps at 3B because he ain't an OF.

 

[carey]

Lamb has been great so unless it's serious....

 

[Phrazbit]

Ole!

Tomas looks a bit dicey out there at 3rd.

 

[AZ Native]

Yeah he was placed on the 15 day DL but I heard that the earliest return would be mid-May which is at least 3 weeks and many times ti drags on. Hope not, but they will probably take their time to see more of Tomas.

Who the bleep put it out that Mike bleeping Lamb was going on the bleeping DL. How does it benefit the bleeping DBacks to put that bleeping info out in bleeping public?!

Tomas, flying down the line.







Where is the sarcasm thing?

He is a big boy. Nice job fighting back in that AB though.

I'm astonished Hudson is throwing as hard as he is after 2 tommy john surgeries. He's touched 96 tonight. Pleasantly surprised
