  1. I'd rather see Swanson face the heart of the lineup in the 8th inning.
  2. I don't mind Richards here. Obviously this is the pocket they think he'll be effective against.
  3. Bad karma for Lowe not knowing how to pronounce his own last name.
  4. This should almost be a situation like football penalties, where the team can decline the pitch clock violation.
  5. You don't catch the Rays napping very often. Nicely done KK.
  6. I wouldn't wish serious injury, but the guy deserves some pain for pronouncing his name incorrectly.
  7. Varsho jumping for a ball that would have hit me in the head
  8. Who is this guy and what did he do with Jose Berrios?
  9. I hear that term on a daily basis, probably more often than bathroom. Maybe it's a regional thing.
  10. Whiffs are way up on the slider too. He probably should have been using it more in the past as well.
  11. That's a really subtle change and may not play out over a full season. You see that kind of difference even between starts for pitchers. Maybe it stays put throughout the season and represents a different grip or something, but I'm skeptical that it's anything more than just noise at this point. There's more to his increased effectiveness than a minor change in shape in my opinion.
  12. Same velo, same vertical and horizontal movement. There might be something different, but it's not obvious to me. It seems to be the increased use and effectiveness of the slider that is driving his success.
  13. April 13 Vladdy - 1 Point - Jonn Bichette - 1 Point - Deadpool Chapman - 1 Point Varsho - 2 Points - jaysblue, Stangstag Springer - 2 Points - JaysAllMighty Belt - 3 Points - JohnHavok Kirk - 3 Points - Dylan Biggio - 4 Points -TheHurl, Spanky Merrifield - 5 Points - wilko Off the bench: 10 Points -Grant Can't get any of starters right so we'll try this haha.
  14. Pop has a weird statcast page this year. Pretty much everything is exactly the same, but he's just getting way more whiffs on the slider and throwing it more often. Maybe it's a location thing.
  15. I just looked a couple of days ago and he was hitting like .180 with a ton of K's. It's funny how a couple of hits can change one's perspective.
  16. Varsho looks so short in the scrum after Springer's hit. 5'10 is 2 or 3 inches generous I think!
  17. I'm kind of shocked the Tigers didn't do a wheel play there. Jansen isn't the fleetest of foot and they could have had him.
  18. One of the rare occasions where a bunt is the right play.
  19. I have zero concerns about Romano this season. Manoah and Berrios are much more concerning.
  20. Great attempt at a tag, but that throw had to be just a touch closer.
