    Pretty sure both Nola and the last pitcher (Tony Watson?) thought they gave up bombs, just look at their reactions.

    Have you seen Nate's minor league numbers and what he did to the Rays in his brief showing in the playoffs? The potential is there to be that kind of pitcher. Obviously with his continued setbacks he's nowhere near that yet.

    LeBron already owns a part of Liverpool FC which is owned by FSG, so I think this is just formalizing that arrangement.
  4. Orgfiller
    Yes. The rules in ST are basically made up.

    92 as a RHP with a sinker and no other swing and miss stuff in today's MLB is...an unlikely combination to pan out.

    "And that's where Kevin Smith is." I'm no expert on our minor league players, but I'm pretty sure Kevin Smith isn't half black/latino.

    Meh, the rotation has depth but it's still obviously a weakness since it lacks quality. You have one elite pitcher in Ryu and then a million question marks. Robbie Ray projects well and will likely be much better than last season, but with his command variance that's still a decent number 2 at best, nothing compared to teams like the Dodgers, Padres, Mets, Yankees if healthy. Then after Ray is where you have a bunch of guys who may or may not suck. On the whole, it's probably reasonably likely that one of Matz, Roark, Stripling, Pearson will be good, but unlikely all of them are. And because they're pitchers, even the good ones are going to miss time, which is where the depth comes into play. So then you're stuck with having a dozen #5 type quality starters following a great pitcher and a good one, and Ryu has injury concerns himself so if he misses a couple of weeks throughout the season then the rotation looks brutal.

    Safe to say Orelvis Martinez wasn't seeing breaking balls of this quality in rookie ball lol.

    Van Eyck's stuff isn't bad, fastball at 93-95 (sitting 94) which has yet to be squared up, and the curve has alright movement although not sure if due to his lack of command it's not tunneling at all.

    It's pretty clear the lost time has affected his development, at least his current readiness. Too young and raw to have that much time not playing competitive baseball.
  11. Orgfiller
    Do you mean Martin, since Groshans didn't hit that inning?
  12. Orgfiller
    I was literally just about to post this. There's nothing like Spring Training baseball. Hicks had to be removed after this, this was his only hitter.
  13. Orgfiller
    I agree. It's a very Aaron Sanchez-y package as it stands.
  14. Orgfiller
    Kloff showing a fastball with heavy sink, big curve, I think a slider on the K, and now a show-me changeup to the lefty.
  15. Orgfiller
    Honestly the best part of that play was the bomb Gurriel proceeded to toss into the infield when he realized the ball was still being ruled live.
  16. Orgfiller
    The precedents are being set these days with the post millennium starters. Roy Halladay didn't get 200 wins. Scherzer might not get there. Chris Sale - if he comes back from his surgery at a high level - probably won't even sniff 180.
  17. Orgfiller
    Martin has a 70 tool fighting the sun stance.
  18. Orgfiller
    Gotta love vetrin Tommy Milone coming into the game and destroying some poor teenager with crafty changeups.
  19. Orgfiller
    He basically sprinted to second on contact, it was a very low IQ play. On a ball hit to the shortstop you probably should be able to at worst take one step to second and have plenty of time to retreat. Vlad was out by 6 feet.
  20. Orgfiller
    I was hoping he would get it last year, and IMO deserved it due to being in a significantly harder division than the other contestants. I would really hope that would make his case, although I think he'd still need to approach or surpass the 50 WAR threshold so his dominance is spread out over a 10 year period in which 4-5 of those he was the best pitcher on the planet.
  21. Orgfiller
    lol Vlad

    It's a pretty dumb tweet. She's been in the league a lot of years and was obviously qualified for the job. We don't see these kinds of tweets for every new GM, much less ones with as much experience as Ng does. It has a very clear patronizing tone which I can see why people wouldn't be a fan of it.
  23. Orgfiller
    Does anyone believe this? I think most people just want Kirk to have frequent ABs which he might not get if he's the backup to Danny Jansen who we shouldn't be completely writing off just yet.
  24. Orgfiller
    The reasonable ones here are the larger bases, the electronic strike zone and the on-field clocks to keep the game moving along. The pick-off rule is an absolute farce. Naturally I hate the anti-shift rule, which I might be able to live with if they at least only keep it to infielders must be in front of the outfield grass, but would loathe if they actually enforced two infielders on each side of second base.

    Vladdy is roping the ball to all fields.
