A few major league teams will throw out worse lineups than both of those this year. We've got some enviable depth.

Nice catch by Lukes

[Spanky99]

Dinger for Cavan, he almost had an oppo in the 1st.

He's been really good this spring. I'm expecting a big season out of him.

Casey Lawrence had his tits lit in the other game.

Ditto.

Nice work by the Gasman.

I really hope these baserunning outs are just the team experimenting in ST. Even if it is, it is getting tiring because the experimenting has been a total failure so far. It seems the team is surrendering an average of 3 baserunning outs per game.

What happened in this game? Guys work on s*** during the spring every season.

Springer Dinger!!!

Just a matter of time before he calls it a "career".

Merrifield got CS at 3rd base (2nd time this spring at least). Bo got picked off at 2nd base. What exactly is the team learning here? Do they really intend on being aggressive when on 2nd? That's just retarded. Stealing 3rd is one of the dumbest moves in baseball.

Looks like another rough day for Big Nate.

I don't think we need to be concerned about the game's best third base stealer suddenly forgetting how to do it. It's not stupid if you do it at a 92% clip, even before considering the expanded bases.

Well then, it's ST man. They really do work on this s*** during the spring, timing the pitcher, leads, working with the clock, there's so many variables.
