Cuz when we took the lead it appeared as though Rodriguez would be lifted and you want a better defender out there than Pearce, who would likely have been facing a RHP if he git up again
Sitting 189th in the freebie today on DK with 34 innings left. I stacked the Jays/Sox game with Solarte, Benintendi, Betts, Holt, Pearce, Teoscar and Diaz.
Kershaw and Matz pitching. Top 265 get paid. Really hoping for a bomb from one of the Jays here since Kershaw stunk it up
Pearson has been dealing with an oblique strain and may see game action in early May, John Lott of The Athletic Toronto reports.
Analysis:Pearson was reportedly dealing with a minor back issue, but Lott reports the young pitcher started the season with the oblique strain. The 21-year-old has been throwing bullpen sessions and could be nearing his season debut for High-A Dunedin.
Players of the Day: Cavan Biggio, Bo Bichette, Angel Perdomo, Kevin Smith,
Honourable mentions: Conor Panas, Patrick Cantwell, Danny Espinosa, Samad Taylor, Cullen Large, Kacy Clemens, Yennsy Diaz
Josh is just watching the future dollar signs dwindle with every DL day this season, unless he spends nearly no more time on it and rakes the s*** out of the ball for the rest of the year.
Dynamite commentary Barker.... sounds like he's pointing at Travis and Grichuk because honestly, who else is even struggling? Stroman I guess but he's not even pitching in this series.
Edit, I suppose Smoak could be tossed in there also given his recent woes
Not sure, but I do caution people when ever there's a power spike of a LH hitter in New Hampshire, as it's a very LH homer friendly park. It's 303 down the RF line and only 353 to right center, even shorter than the Yankees f***stick park by 11 and 32 feet respectively.
However, that doesn't yet apply to Biggio since they've been on the road so much to start the year, home/away splits are pretty meaningless at this point.
Players of the day: Brock Lundquist, Christian Williams, Vlad Jr, Cavan Biggio, Max Pentecost,
Honourable Mentions: Samad Taylor, Kevin Vicuna, Chavez Young, Harold Ramirez, Juan Kelly, Rowdy Tellez
Feel free to chirp, as long as you're willing to receive it back
As for average age baseball-reference.com has an entire section for all of the minor league levels. You can see the Ave gargle age of hitters and pitchers in every league every year. Technically, Noda is older than league average but by a few months, so it's not crazy. He's too old at that level to be considered a prospect though. 20 is about the max age I'll ever look at for Low A ball, but 19 or younger are the truly legit guys.
1. He's about league average age for the MWL
2. So are pitchers in the lower level league he was in last year, yet his walk rate has almost doubled.
3. You're retarded.
4. I'm not saying he's a prospect, just that his numbers are interesting.
True, which is why it's interesting. Pruitt I can understand given that he's a CF/speed guy. Not sure if Noda is getting them all on the backend of double-steals, or if the pitching batteries in the MWL are just awful at holding runners.
His walk rate is 37%, but his ISO is .083....that's retarded. Not sure what all these pitchers are afraid of
