In case anyone missed it. Robert Stephenson made his minor league debut last night. 5IP 3H 0R 1BB 8K. Touched 97 with his fastball.

Rolen hasn't bumped anyone out of the lineup, unless you guys are implying his mere presence on the field is a downer to the other guys.

We haven't pitched well for two games, and we haven't hit well for two games.

Taking Frazier from third and putting him in the outfield took him out of his comfort zone. If you don't thank that misses with a players mind your crazy.

Frazier played a lot of LF in the minors, it's hardly a weird position for him. His struggles have more to do with teams having a scouting report on him.

Agree. Steady diet of breaking stuff, down and away.

First-pitch swinging. Why not?

I would disagree you bump him from 3rd to outfield. If you ask him which I'm not implying that I have, I bet he fells more comfortable at third.

Oh I'm sure he does feel more comfortable at 3rd, I don't think that's why he's struggling though. Word is out that he struggles with offspeed pitches, he'll see them till he adjusts.
