    In my book no "hot item" or rookie is anything special until he proves it. The graveyard is full of "can't miss" prospects that never made a dent in the game for anyone; including the sons of many major leaguers.  

    I can appreciate and accept the fans, maybe even the team, will be excited about it and that should work to my benefit, but; his entry into the show makes no difference whatsoever to my handicap.

    "Why are they batting him 5th?"

    Because of what they expect from him, LONG TERM, not necessarily what he is expected to do tonight. His skills and projections make him look like an RBI guy and that would be the proper slot. I don't lack faith in him but accept that he has not yet proven anything to anyone.

    Is it me or is Fike Miers the perfect pitcher for Vladdy debut?

    Mike Fiers is the perfect pitcher for most of the Jays lineup. His skill sets are slipping badly. Two good starts at the beginning of the season, both at home and against the Angels and Red Sox, neither of whom got off to a good start. The rest of his season has been a disaster.

    Ugly number for an overrated guy with a team that can't hit lefties.

    Reynaldo's brother in name Jorge, is -105 for the Royals. He's 0-5 despite a very respectable 1.30 WHIP and decent peripherals. He was the "key element" (I'm a genius)  in the Moustakas trade last year. Play the unlucky Lopez, name is Jorge tomorrow. Maybe you'll be luckier than he has been this year.

    That's arguable, but your point is not. I saw this kid at Salt River in ST and was quite impressed. Like you say, he has suffered from some bad luck and lack of support, but I have to rate him a "comer". Look out down the road, maybe tomorrow. He is not out of my possible card just yet.

    I didn't argue your point, I just took umbrage at the hubris of your self proclamation of being a genius.

    Sportsfans: There is a “key element” to my LAA/KAC I did not write up but have not seen mentioned on Covers all day. Most folks leaning toward the Angels are thinking “decent team – bad team” at a cheap price. Perhaps not overly exciting and a Skaggs/Duffy matchup probably doesn’t get anyone’s heart going pitty-pat either. No big deal, right? If Trout outhits Merrifield Angels win, right?

    Think again. Because they are the Yankees and both their sponsors and MLB want them on TV in prime time, the Yankees and Angels did not play the standard afternoon series wrap-up yesterday.

    So, the Yankees, Angels, MLB and the TV executives all get what they want, two major markets on the East and Wests Coasts in prime time.

    But, the game lasts almost four hours and at 11 P.M. PDT the Angels have yet to eat, shower, get to the airport, and make a three hour flight two time zones to the east, creating a five hour differential for their body clocks to deal with. Normal sleep and eating times are badly disrupted, and that, my friends, is known as a handicap. In my humble opinion that eliminates the simplicity of the decent team – bad team concept.   

    How many rocket scientist geniuses have you seen take that into consideration today?

    I'm glad you've noticed my "key element" insert prior to me being a genius. It was the play on words which spawned such a comment. 

    I'm willing to bet the Cheeseburger Royales all weekend. Last game they found their offense again by punishing the Rays 10-2. They actually have some good offensive pieces in place, unlike say...the Pirates or Marlins.

    Agreed. Te Royals problem now is just a couple of pieces and some maturity. Like the Marlins, they won't win it but will be a pain in the keester to the front runners, Ah, the beauty of baseball.

    Friday nights tend to be a good road underdog situation. Every body on the DFS forums are stacking the Twins against poor old Alex Cobb tonite. I never liked Cobb even when he was a Ray, but I know he's capable of baffling a team with bullshit on occasion. The Twins offense is hit or miss on any given day, and I think an Orioles bet is in good order tonite.
