    We haven't been able to figure out Eovaldi since he was with the Red Sox. I think he took that blown ALCS game 4 against us personally.

    astros rocked him the following season after the alcs game 4 meltdown

    but you're right. ever since he joined the rangers, it's tough af to figure him out. rangers definitely fixed him

    While these are great, just to give you a sense of what Judge has done... What Yordan has done the last 2 months is still slightly below the average of what Judge has averaged the last 4 years, which is kind of insane. Yordan, of course, has been much better in the postseason.

    Don’t understand sitting 1 of your 4 viable hitters (and really one of only 2 currently hitting well) in a game against a division opponent.

    He hasn't had a day off in forever and the next 2 series are against much better teams. Division opponent doesn't matter much unless its the team that you're competing for the division with - and the Rangers aren't that. Going 0-8 the last two days gives him a nice opportunity to get a rest.

    Teams aren't ever going to treat games in May as must-win games.

    It's a real problem that this lineup is so thin. The replacement level lineup filler shouldn't start with the cleanup hitter.
