Not sure what he was expecting there? A pitcher's pitch?

Robert sure does love the first pitch.

This is the kind of shit we're going to see in the college game, unpaid teenage labor being exploited further and pressured into ignoring the virus until someone gets really sick.

Very, very good to hear that they're looking to leave Detwiler in the pen, it's working, don't mess with it. Rodon was down to 85 MPH on the fastball in his start, it'll be a minor miracle if he's not out long.

Foltynewicz lost 4 MPH off his fastball from last year, he's broken.

A .297 average and .150 ISO strikes me as Madrigal at his peak unless he finds some magic muscle, I can't see him averaging those numbers over many years.

You fucking idiot, you absolute dolt, he was not released, he was designated for assignment, these are totally different things. HOW DO YOU HAVE THIS JOB!?

My Madrigal offensive comp is Marco Scutaro after he left Oakland. From 2008 to 2013 he averaged the following per 162 games: 35 2B 2 3B 9 HR 101 OPS+ 8.9% BB% 9.1% K% .287/.352/.391/.744

Yeah, I'm thinking Basabe makes it through waivers, I'm not sure anyone is going to add him to their 40 man roster right now when there's little chance he can contribute in 2020 though I wouldn't have taken that chance with some of the dead weight on the 40.

This is just stupid and short sighted.

Good thing they have that brand new, massive studio, though.

This is an extremely good post.

What an incredibly fun viewing experience, I'm not used to thoroughly enjoying Sox games, it's scary.

Christ, Avi's gonna walk it off, isn't he?

It's an enjoyable broadcast, take a listen to any random team's announcers and chances are they suck major ass, are completely uninformed, know nothing about the modern game and are boring as hell. Benetti and Stone are none of those.

Oh my god Colome

Madrigal took a second to get his glove down there, freaked me out.

Ok, his stuff looks phenomenal.

GULP

Iasognia has changed so many ABs tonight, that shit just cannot happen, MLB needs to address this.

Just a fucking embarrassing performance behind the plate tonight, fucking wretched.

Yeah, I mean the starters went 2 and 3 innings respectively, gonna be a long night when that happens.

Nice, he deserved that after getting fucked all night on shit calls.

He's looked really bad tonight! That's impressive!

Well my BPM is now stabilizing, thanks Yoan!
