caulfield12 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Morel seems to be through his back issues for now. Already glad not to see Alex Rios' name in the line-up, not the greatest omen for our supposed #3 hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Assuming it's the same Francisco, the Reds traded him, so the lineup may change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Apr 1, 2012 -> 03:52 PM) What, it's his last start before the actual season and he threw 105 last outing. Backing off to 70 is not out of the ordinary here, but if no one said that then everyone would assume he was hurt if he was pulled after 3.

I just thought it was funny you are assuming it will take him 70 pitches to get through 3 innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the official statement. He's scheduled to throw either 70 pitches or 3 innings. I guess there's a "Whichever comes first" or "Whichever comes second" somewhere in there, but that's unclear.

Princess Dye Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Viciedo has a chance (not to be pessimistic)...but a chance to be a colossal disappointment. Defense just there--oh boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 by the eye test, what would you say Peavy's fastball velocity is at? Same as after his injury or faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) Lets hope VissAYE-ado gives us a few months of lucky BABIP performance similar to 2010...and then involve him in a package deal midyear where we get something very nice back Like with Danks to NY for Granderson and Pineda!

Balta1701 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Konerko's in midseason "long at bat, you're not getting me out" form. And then he hammers the ball on the ground right up the middle, to the point the pitcher had to jump over it. Thing of beauty. Apparently Paulie is 14 for his last 23.

Balta1701 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Manto interview. Says that Rios was trying to pull everything last year when they came in so they're really working on having him go the opposite way. Beckham they tried to get him to simplify things down and he feels like things have worked better the last 2.5 weeks, refers to Beckham being "Really hard on himself". Viciedo isn't there yet but needs to get his at bats in. Konerko's fine, Manto hasn't had to say 2 words to him all spring, he's a machine. TFLOW working to get off the fastball to be able to better adapt to offspeed stuff. Escobar "not trying to do too much". Peavy in a whole heap o trouble in the 3rd.

Well, we've faced Fields this season, and I believe Anderson is still around somewhere as a pitcher, but I'm guessing that was Anderson. What other young players have we brought up since Walker was around who have completely washed out of baseball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the right thing to do with Flowers? I don't know that I see him as someone who needs "fixing". What if he's just a patient fastball hitter who has some pop? To me the main question is can he catch, and if so..I don't need major changes offensively from him. If he can't, then he doesn't play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) Waiting for someone to chime in with a "Peavy is worthless" comment at some point. 4 runs given up, 7 hits. Willie Harris appearance. Hector Santiago with two consecutive K's. It would be ironic if the ace of the team turns out to be someone who wasn't even in the Top 20 or 30 list coming into 2011, and neither Peavy or Sale. That's the fun part about baseball, though.
