You absolutely must ignore any blue print in any RW blurb - it’s useless and often flat-out wrong. Link to post Share on other sites

Baur10 2,142 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Rodney has to be nearing the record for most traded player by now. Or most teams in a career. Or both. Link to post Share on other sites

As a Trienen owner I’m a little nervous I don't think Rodney's a threat to Familia as setup man, much less Treinen. Just bullpen depth. Link to post Share on other sites

As a Trienen owner I’m a little nervous I don't see it. Trivino has been great and they haven't done that with Trienen. Other than Buchter, A's have no other LHPs in the pen.... that's Rodney's role.

Fuzzy_Slippers 3,933 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Looking at Alexander's numbers, they aren't very good. His K% and BB% are both mediocre/bad. However, he has been elite at keeping the ball on the ground. Link to post Share on other sites

MireLurker 285 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Found a bit about Jansen's heart history... man i hope this isn't serious. Quote Jansen spent a month on the disabled list during the 2011 season because of blood thinning medication he was taking to treat an irregular heartbeat. In 2012, he was out again after suffering an irregular heartbeat during an Aug. 27 appearance in Colorado. He underwent a procedure on his heart on Oct. 23, 2012, to return it to normal rhythm. "Once he sees the doctors, the cardiologists - we'll know more about his timetable then," Roberts said. Link to post Share on other sites
