  1. Every time Yolmer pulls one to right I think its gone. Must be the launch angle, cuz that exit velocity aint doing it.
  2. Dang TA hoping for a smooth delivery process!!! Congrats to him!
  3. Eh, I slightly disagree with this assessment. I think Anderson can hit for an average of something in the .260s for his career, with a couple .280-.290 seasons thrown in. I think in his peak years, he can be a 30 HR, 80 RBI guy. That definitely has value. I agree that he will always be a low on base guy. If he walked more, I think he would be the obvious choice for the lead-off spot in the lineup. Unfortunately, that's just not the case.
  4. Yall are overemphasizing everything. They scored 6 runs. The offense isn't the issue. The shotty defense and gross pitching is.
  5. Loving this rally, but why is Castillo not being pinch run for?
  6. Another thing I am noticing that seems to be a recurring theme from year's past: watching hittable pitches go right down the middle, typically early in the count, and swinging at pitcher's pitches the rest of the at bat.
  7. Management needs to figure out a way to get these players motivated before that clubhouse starts to become a poison
  8. Just frustrating to watch. All of this talk about "ride with us or die" and "shit or get off the pot," yet I see errors, pitchers getting behind constantly, throws getting away, no pressure on the basepaths, hitters not working counts,...yeesh
  9. Might be time to end the Jones experiment. His body failed him his entire career, and I think there has just been too much damage for him to be what he once was.
  10. This has been a well umpired game behind the plate FWIW
  11. Storms are coming. Sox better tie this thing up soon. Game is official.
  12. More rain is developing behind that giant system. Dont think its going away
  13. 90% chance thunderstorms Thursday from 1:00-7:00, of course during the window of the game 100% chance storms all day Friday 90% chance rain most of the day Saturday now. Up to a quarter of an inch they say. Source: Weather.com Of course this would happen.
  14. Possibly? I didnt know that was a thing, but I keep hearing their intention is to keep him in extended ST in AZ to get more innings in until they need that 5th starter. I know he had bad injury last year, but I trust him more than Covey to get the job done.
  15. I also think that once Santana is ready, one of either Covey or Frare gets sent down.
  16. Would they maybe push it to like 1:00 central? Not sure how logistics would work with that...but i see forecasts saying the bad stuff is starting around 3:00 central, right around first pitch.
  17. Because I am usually working when these spring training games start. Don't worry, i will when the season starts and we get night games in.
