    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.

    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.

    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

    I'm telling you, 2 HRs tonight. I saw it in my tea leaves this morning.
  8. John_Havok
    Yeah i know, and if he straightens out his command, he can absolutly be a swing and miss guy with that filthy change

    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.
  10. John_Havok
    Under. Dude is launching at least 2 bombs tonight.

    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.

    I hate that I love the Rays...

    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.

    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)

    Yes, they were testing the roof a few weeks ago already

    He's been a beauty, but when you look at the numbers, it's easy to see why. He's not whiffing on pitches in the strike zone like he has been the past few seasons and in fact is contacting them at a career-best rate. Highly unlikely for that to continue, but even if he's at 80-85% that's money in the bank.
  20. John_Havok
    99-100%

    It's easy to just point and say the pen isnt good enough, but as with most things, context is important. I'll just post the entire pitching staff's #'s so far. That's over 36 innings in 10 games for the pen, which isn't ideal. 6 innings alone for Cimber, and 5 guys with 5 or more. Keeping that up over a full season would be less than ideal, but when yove had 5 of the 10 game where your starter gets wrecked (Kikuchi x 1, Manoah x 1, Berrios x2 and Bassit x 1) the pen is going to take some lumps.
  22. John_Havok
    No no, he should keep using it. Like…lots more
  23. John_Havok
    Kinda the same feeling of the road trip overall. 6-4 or 7-3 was about what you’d expect with the schedule they had. Angels series(2-1) and KC series(3-1) was exactly what should have happened, the only flip would have been winning the series against St. Louis to get to 7-3. No Jays fan should really be upset at the results of the road trip, but yeah…the path that got them there could use work.
  24. John_Havok
    The thing that’s most impressive is that out of all their wins, every single one has been by 4 runs or more. yes, they should beat those teams but baseball will usually curse you for 1 or 2 games out of 9.
  25. John_Havok
    Couldn’t catch the rest of the game after the 2nd inning, did I miss anything exciting?
