Ivan ‘Pudge’ Rodriguez
March 7th, 2009
I am sitting here watching the Panama vs Puerto Rico WBC game and wondering why we have not signed Pudge yet. He has already stolen a base and hit a HR, and looks to have thinned down a little bit from last year. Even if he is the backup behind Schneider he can help improve all of our pitchers including Johan and K-rod. He can DH when we play the AL and he can even give Delgado a rest against a tough lefty at 1b. There is no downside at all to adding him to the roster, so Omar go get him!!!
Update: Pudge ended with a walk, single, double and 2 HR….
what’s wrong with Ramon Castro? And Pudge Rodriguez calls a horrible game, always wants fastballs to throw runners out.
Castro is fine for now..Pudge brings more of an overall threat and would be good for every one of our arms.
