Is It Too Late for Eduardo Rodriguez or Chi Chi Gonzalez to Get Rookie of the Year?

paco · 06-06-15, 12:03 AM

I think Souza from Rays gets it

Up against some tough competition though, with Kris Bryant and the rookie on the Dodgers.

The two pitchers are American League.

Souza has a nice head start, let's see what happens the rest of the way.

I"m not buying Chi Chi yet. That was an awesome game he threw though.

Ghenghis Kahn · 06-06-15, 02:35 AM

settle down lt, only two games each by these rookies.

i thought archie bradley was the next best thing then he came back down to earth...

Cross · 06-06-15, 03:23 AM

Kris Bryant will take it for sure!

But these two had hype before they even threw one pitch in the majors. Not like your garden variety rookies like Bradley.

Joc Pederson

I agree he will win it

You guys keep mentioning National League guys, both of these pitchers are AL.

Bradley had way more hype than either of these two. Gonzalez is the Rangers 6-9th best prospect. Rodriguez is a Red Sox so they hype up everybody. Unless you are a Sox fan or a prospect hound you wouldn't know Rodriguez. He may have a punchers chance at Roy. Gonzalez looks great so far, but it's about to get hot in Texas and his bb/k rate isn't a recipe for success.

daneblazer · 06-06-15, 06:26 AM

Actually, Rodriguez may have a good shot. There just aren't many rookies tearing it up in the AL. Betts sucks, Souzas average is terrible. Preston Tucker would be the favorite now, I guess

Yeah i wasn't really up on off-season MLB news. I am much closer to in-season hype and heard talks about the two guys I mentioned several weeks before they came up.

Two guys that have actually lived up to their advance hype for a change.

Rodriguez has allowed a grand total of one run (on a solo homer) and five hits in two starts as a lefty that has hit 97 MPH.

Chi Chi's command wasn't great his first start (five walks) but he still didn't allow any runs on just two hits, and then tonight a Complete Game three-hit shutout.

not just no...

but fukk no

no chance whatsoever

Souza and Pederson are much locks to win ROY

those who say Kris Bryant should win over Joc Pederson clearly dont watch any baseball

LT Profits · 06-10-15, 11:59 AM

Rodriguez had his third start for Boston Tuesday night and tossed six scoreless innings allowing just three hits with seven strikeouts, although he walked three. Still, he has a 0.44 ERA and 0.73 WHIP in three starts with 21 strikeouts in 20.2 innings vs. seven walks. He has allowed a grand total of 8 hits and the only run he has allowed came on a solo homer.

upscope · 06-10-15, 12:02 PM

Don't think they will win it but there is certainly plenty of time for them to do so. No it is not too late.

Kid made Adam Jones look silly in the 5th

No chance this happens.

Rodriguez could if he had a great second half, but Bryant is the guy to beat.

For about the umpteenth time (

), Rodriguez is in the American League. And what competition does he have besides Souza?

Robber · 06-14-15, 09:15 PM

Yes I would count them out .

King Mayan · 06-14-15, 09:27 PM

Joc Pederson easy money..

LOL.

Bryant is a lock for Roy.

LT Profits · 06-15-15, 06:19 AM

Look like Rodriguez got roughed up badly Sunday, allowing eight earned in 4.1 innings. This could be a good thing as now we could see what he is made of by how he bounces back in his next start. Meanwhile, Chi Chi has allowed a total of one run on three starts. There are no locks in the AL with Souza the leading contender right now.

I don't think most of these clowns even realize there's 2 leagues with 2 ROY.

mpaschal34 · 06-15-15, 07:06 AM

maybe bryant is so good, that he'll win the ROY in both leagues.

Auto Donk · 06-15-15, 10:06 AM

shit, i thought this thread was about mexi-golfer chi chi rodriguez.....

htown1 · 06-15-15, 10:51 AM

Joc Pederson has been having an amazing year so far 17 homers I believe. No way an everyday player is gonna lose to a pitcher who wasn't their from the beginning and will likely only make 20-25 starts.
