Are the Indians really that good?

[z3r0s]

anyone have a bead on exactly what the Dodgers opening day lineup is going to look like? More than a few tough calls there.

Actually I think it's pretty straight forward.

 

Rollins

Crawford

Puig

Gonzalez

Pederson

Kendrick

Grandal

Uribe

 

Possible Ellis ends up catching Kershaw

Van Slyke in for all LHP's (Crawford usually the odd man out is my guess) but I also can see the F.O. convincing them to make sure he gets 350 PAs. I also can see them getting Turner 250 PA's at least.

Carson Cistulli picked the Blue Jays to win the AL East and Devon Travis to win AL ROY.

[Ziggyy108]

Yeah they didn't do a good job about coming off as concerned about JH's well being. I mean they said that too but it seemed to be pretty transparent

[connorp]

Also re: Santana. How do you just get Winstol in your system..lol.. what an awful defense. "They must've put real steroids in my GNC protein powder".. basically......

...... "However, I won't appeal my suspension"

[fatcowxlive]

Dbacks are announcing Nick Ahmed at SS and Chris*** Owens 2B to start the season meaning Aaron Hill's on the bench. Looks like they're trying to unload him ASAP because they're not finalizing rosters until tomorrow Edited April 3, 2015 by fatcowxlive
oops

[fatcowxlive]

Chad Owens = Chris Owings?

 

Nope, Chad is just having a career switch!

 

goddammit lol

Most pick the O's to win the East..but I am so sick of media types kissing the Sox's butt. With that pitching staff, I can see Boston being a huge disappointment, especially if their overhyped offense disappoints like last season.

[tercet]

Who would have thought that Luis Perez was hanging around with all the Dominican Jays.. and Mark Buehlre in the Dominican Republic....

I don't know man....with the Red Sox luck I pretty much expect their staff to have career years. That's just the way it goes....

That heath Cummings guy seems pretty dumb.

[TheHurl]

Travis Wood just crushed one off Jeremy Hellickson lol

 

The guy has a career .355 slugging percentage, and says he never takes any extra batting practice beyond what's required of him by the team. Nine career HR's in 265 PA's. His numbers aren't much different than Alcantara last year...and much better than Barney

This is awesome. It was pretty clear why Ruth was so dominant in his time. He was the only one who didn't swing like a 10 year old, and all the pitchers had pretty s***** wind ups and releases. It was really cool how you saw common mechanics on both sides evolve through the years.
