I'm sure he will find a way to blow it if he gets the gig. But at this point I'd give him a shot. Regardless of the numbers, I can't stand watching Dyson. Dyson sucks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Seems to constantly give up leadoff walks or hits, which usually come back and bite him. Moronta, Watson, Blach for all I care. Almost anyone else at this point. I would still like Moronta to get a shot, but I know that won't happen any time soon. Link to post Share on other sites

I would bet on Smith over Watson given Bochy's comments about leaving Watson where he is. Melancon definitely still in the mix. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dchamps 199 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Rondon with the save tonight for Houston in Tampa Bay. Brought in bottom 9 of a 1-0 game against the 4-5-6 batters. 3 Ks and an infield single. Giles hasn't had a save since 6/12. Can I drop him yet? Link to post Share on other sites

I hear you - I actually didn’t even see it, so I totally defer. Thought you didn’t notice at first and thought you’d like to know that he was charged with a hit.

But yes the above are right, he has some control issues. I would say the only knock for me on most of the other guys is they are thriving in their current roles. Link to post Share on other sites

Does it even make sense to roster Giles at this point in standard leagues? Rondon seems to have the hold on the position. Link to post Share on other sites
