Is Melky for real right now?

[G-Snarls]

Great hit and run call!

 

Also great call on the stop at 3rd!

 

Nobody out

 

Smart move

 

I almost #LoveThisTeam right now

[G-Snarls]

Is Melky for real right now?

 

Sure as Hell looks it

 

We might actually get the player we THOUGHT we were getting

[Stangstag]

Bases juiced for big E

[G-Snarls]

Loading bases for Edwin is NOT recommended

Not this time .

 

LAWRIE TIME DOEEEEE

[gruber92]

I don't see much difference in Redmond vs Rogers from a results standpoint. Totally different pitchers in that Redmond is far more about mixing pitches and command, while Rogers is more of a power pitcher. Rogers has better overall stuff I think, but Redmond knows how to make his stuff play up.

 

What worries me is that Redmond has to have exceptional command to be effective, where Rogers can get away with more mistakes.

[G-Snarls]

Love Miggy's shades

[G-Snarls]

Lawrie with good plate discipline

[gruber92]

Sure as Hell looks it

 

We might actually get the player we THOUGHT we were getting

 

What a massive impact this will have.

[fatcowxlive]

Well that was a let down haha, FC RBI though

 

SIERRAAA TIMEEEEE

 

EDIT NVM LINDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TIME!

[John_Havok]

Lawrie got the RBI there, but really he should have let one go ... Was not a good pitch to hit

[G-Snarls]

Lol Buck "Cabrera was really unselfish moving to 3rd"

 

Well it's kind of true

 

Perennial MVP candidates can probably get away with refusing to do so

 

He knew it might hurt his reputation defensively and might wear him down more physically

[G-Snarls]

Will I Am and Britney Bitch!

 

Work Bitch video is fapworthy

[fatcowxlive]

Victor Martinez as a catcher is so throwback for me, I used to love him in his Cleveland days.... then he became a Boston First Baseman..... ugh

[John_Havok]

That's true.

[Jays]

Buck just said the Jays are walking more because of Seitzer. The Jays are 28th in the majors this spring in walks.

And they were 9th in all of baseball last season

 

LOL love it when a stat chack can prove these guys are dead wrong

[G-Snarls]

Redmond back out

[G-Snarls]

Redmond hitting his spot almost every single pitch

 

Nice

[G-Snarls]

They pretty much have to put Redmond in the rotation

[G-Snarls]

Buck: Esmil Rogers has 3rd most strikouts of any pitcher in Grapefruit league

[fatcowxlive]

I agree. Just like last year hes giving us a chance to win. We got do worse with 5 starter. I just wish the first 4 were more talented.

 

Dickey's going to have a good bounceback year, Buherle is going to be a very solid pitcher, Hutchinson (with the Dickey effect) will be unbelievably good and Morrow's a wild card (if he stays healthy and isn't unlucky he should be good)

He has 80 MLB innings and appears a "safe" choice

 

Plus no options right? How did we get him anyway I don't even remember.

[fatcowxlive]

Jesus look at that movement

[Jays]

They pretty much have to put Redmond in the rotation

 

I think so. Out of options and he wasn't bad last year and this spring. Just finished striking out the side.

[G-Snarls]

Dickey's going to have a good bounceback year, Buherle is going to be a very solid pitcher, Hutchinson (with the Dickey effect) will be unbelievably good and Morrow's a wild card (if he stays healthy and isn't unlucky he should be good)

 

Yep

 

I actually feel much better about

 

Dickey and MB are work horses. Hutch and Redmond seem solid. And if Morrow gets hurt we have Rogers, Happ, McGowan, Stroman.

 

I'm no longer sure Ervin Santana was really of any need even though I (obviously LOL) thought so 6 weeks ago.

Reds had him last year and DFA'd him in like January or February of 2013. O's claim and a month later DFA him and Jays claim. Couldn't break the team so they DFA him and he cleared going down to Buffalo

[G-Snarls]

matt tuiasosopo made the 17 hour flight over to Australia for opening series, as soon as he got there they told him he was DFA'd and he had to make a 17 hour flight back

 

ROFLMAO.........that's so bush.

ROFLMAO.........that's so bush.

 

Is this true?!?!?!

Redmond? He was DFA'd by cinci last spring, claimed by Baltimore, then DFA'd again and Jays claimed him.
