9:20 in Phoenix. Be patient. Be hopeful.

You meant Moncada, not Jimenez.

I’d say keep giving him opportunities but have a real conversation about what he can and cannot do out there. He needs to know his limitations and stay in his lane. In the long run, his shortcomings in LF will be made up for it if he can play Batters Box 150+ games every year. Hopefully the news will be good later today.

Agreed. I’m surprised they’re seemingly going to roll with Robert at 2 to begin with after his September struggles. I would have thought he’d be at 6 or 7 to start, but the talent is awesome, so we shall see. No law against changing things as the season progresses.

I’ll give Lopez credit for being pretty durable and he actually had a 2018 season we can only pray Cease could match this season. Hopefully he gets his act together and maybe another team will want him.

Hopefully Keuchel can get some good innings under his belt. Cubs playing their regulars.

...and Grandal not catching much. I’m thinking the last spot is Collins vs Mendick. Hamilton can stick around until Engel is ready. cuts to come- Collins, Mercedes, Burr, Turley, Remillard, Reynolds, Beckham, Williams. Fry and Engel go to IL.

Loud mouth heckler in the stands. Alcohol is a hell of a thing.

If Kopech, Crochet, Heuer, Bummer, and Hendriks stay off the IL...I mean...wow.

That looks like a 4/1 lineup card vs Dylan Bundy BTW, still on Daylight time until the World Series is over.

I think they’ll stick with Lucroy, and two of three of Mendick, Collins, and Hamilton make the OD roster.

Well, some things have changed since Tuesday. Engel won’t be on the opening day roster. Lopez is probably going to get optioned. Jose Ruiz has a better chance of making the roster now. If they have to make room for Vaughn, Hamilton, and Lucroy, they’ll probably try to outright Turley and Zavala.

Nik Turley off waivers from A’s. Cordero to 60-day DL.

Engel out a couple weeks, per Tony.

Katz on 670 in a few minutes

Sox game at 8:40 tonight. On delay on MLB Network at 10p. Sox on 30 clubs/30 days on Saturday at 6, or when the Padres/Dodgers game is over.

Giolito will be on this podcast every few weeks. Kinda long, but not bad.

You mean MLB (not the MLB) is protecting the companies that actually pay them money for advertising? Bauer is a whining baby.

Also on MLB Network for the out of towners

Happy St. Patty's Day

Rooting for Mendick over Collins. Unfortunately the AAA season doesn’t get guys playing for real in May, but I’d like to see Collins get regular at bats somewhere instead of mostly sitting.
