  1. Avg velo will be seem to be down though if you intentionally keep it on the low end (90-92)for the first half of your pitches, then ramp up (93-95) for the second half. That's just math, and will all depend on how soon/late he flips the switch
  2. One thing I really hate about hitters, when they come to bat just deciding before hand they wont be swinging, and watch crushable meatballs go right past them.
  3. Lets get the Cy Young version of Manoah tonight!
  4. My point is, beating the bottom dwellers shouldn't mean that everyone thinks the Rays are the best team in baseball like people that do weekly power rankings do. If they were 11-0 against top 10 projected teams, sure, let's maybe re-evaluate.
  5. I dont want to give them to omuch credit for their current record though, they really have played the softest schedule in the MLB. Their 1st 4 series were against projected 5th place teams in their divisions, 2 of which are projected to be bottom 5 in all of the MLB. Yes, its impressive they've ran the table so far, but lets not move them up to WS favorites because they've stomped on bugs. No matter their record when they come to toronto on Friday, if we take 2 of 3, them taking out the trash doesnt mean a whole lot as far as power rankings go.
  6. Up yours ya trogladytic uphill gardening bike!
  7. I dont care if they have the festivities, just do it before the scheduled opening pitch. Advertisers on TV dont want a massive chunk of audience gone for the first 30 minutes of a broadcast when nothing is happening.

    And San Jose is happy they don't have a bloody boat anchor contract that is now actually tradeable to the right team at the right time.
  9. Or, schedule it to happen prior to the scheduled first pitch. It's not like fans dont know there will always be some kind of ******** ceremony on the home opener. If they want to be there for it, theyll come earlier.

    He really turned that albatross contract around in a hurry. 1st 100 point season by a D-man in like 30 years.
  11. Am I the only one that hates the 20-30 minute home opener pre-game ********? I mean seriously, do the anthem, throw the ceremonial first pitch and lets get the show on the road ffs
  12. I'm telling you, 2 HRs tonight. I saw it in my tea leaves this morning.
  13. Yeah i know, and if he straightens out his command, he can absolutly be a swing and miss guy with that filthy change
  14. I'd be more inclined to punt Richards and keep both Pop and Pearson. I like Pop in the pen, just not as a high leverage guy yet.
  15. Under. Dude is launching at least 2 bombs tonight.
  16. April 11 Vladdy - 1 Point - mphenhef Bichette - 1 Point - Dylan, Chapman - 1 Point Varsho - 2 Points - Deadpool, Springer - 2 Points - JaysBlue, Belt - 3 Points - JohnHavok Kirk - 3 Points Kiermaier - 3 Points Biggio - 4 Points - JaysAllMighty, Spanky Off the bench: 10 Points Belt will turn his shitshow around, starting tonight.
  17. Love probably isnt the right word, but it sure is hard not to respect the hell out an organization that gets the results they do with far less resources at their disposal than other teams. Whatever system they have, they are always 2 steps ahead of every other org in MLB. Look at what they have done with Springs, taking a middling reliever who walks the planet to 2/3 starter who looks nearly unhittable. And if it was just one guy, sure, you'd just chalk it up to blind luck, but they seem to do this every f***ing year with someone, whether it's a pitcher castoff that turns into an ace, some s***** minor leaguer that turns into a legit back end pen arm, or a journeyman shitstick that suddenly hits 30+ bombs out of nowhere.
  18. I hate that I love the Rays...
  19. I disagree that Pop has the stuff to be a high leverage guy, he can't miss bats nearly well enough to be a high leverage arm. Pop could be an excellent multi-inning guy though that limits hard contact, but when he's on the hill, there's going to be balls put into play. he's certainly not a guy I want to bring in with runners on base.
  20. Yeah, not exactly a super crop is there. Third Basemen Ehire Adrianza (34) Brian Anderson (31) Jeimer Candelario (30) Matt Chapman (31) Charlie Culberson (35) Josh Donaldson (38) – $16MM club option with an $8MM buyout* Eduardo Escobar (35) – $9MM club option with a $500K buyout Evan Longoria (38) Mike Moustakas (35) – $20MM club option with a $4MM buyout* Max Muncy (33) – $10MM club option Justin Turner (39) – $13.4MM player option with a $6.7MM buyout* Gio Urshela (32) Joey Wendle (34)
  21. Yes, they were testing the roof a few weeks ago already
