  1. Some random thoughts: 1. Biggio's consecutive game on-base streak ended tonight at like 33 games or something. 2. Great to see Jansen having success with the bat early on. He's going to be a cornerstone of this team. 3. Nice to see Tellez get off the schneid. 4. So good to see Teo driving it oppo. 5. Based on the eye test, Thornton, Borucki, Romano and Bass all look like legit arms. 6. I'm still fairly optimistic that Dolis will turn it around. 7. Espinal seems like a fun player. I hope he succeeds, but doubt he will.
  2. Maybe he reads the message board. Someone on here suggested it and Tellez shaved it off the very next day!
  3. Do the recent changes in the way the game is managed (shifts, openers, increased bullpen use, etc.) change this? I mean sure - back when you never shifted, ran your starters (good and bad ones) out there through the lineup 3 times, set & forget lineups, set roles in the bullpen (setup man, closer), etc....but these days it seems like there's a lot more decisions and options. Maybe because the decisions are so analytical based, all the managers generally do the same things? Maybe you can argue that 'back in the day' they did stuff like call steals and do hit and runs more? Just curious.
  4. He could have taken that 60 foot change up though...just sayin'
  5. Nationals Park is really nice.
  6. Jansen is easily becoming one of my favourite Jays. And I usually have no interest in catchers. Bo, Biggy, Jansen.
  7. Apparently Buck as on the Jeff Blair show and ripped Campbell for this tweet saying he didn't realize Jamie had any connections in the game. Saying that he's been in the game for a long time and know a lot of people and that he hasn't heard Pearson is starting Wednesday. Perhaps those connected with the Jays forgot Grandpa Buck's home phone number and had to mail him a letter advising of this news. I obviously got this 3rd hand because I mean who the f*** would listen to Jeff Blair at any point - but especially when Buck is the guest.
  8. unfair for him to say this when the PA was involved and shooting down options. This comes off very smug.
  9. I'd agree - but that wasn't what I was getting at...
  10. Good news is you can bring in 14 new players and it won't tangibly effect the on field results for the Marlins.
  11. Don't make me google a word on a Monday morning Boxy. That's rude. I realize it's not the ultimate solution, but it could be something they do to 'help' (even if it's only a marginal improvement).
  12. Wouldn't the Marlins team just get tested? You don't quarantine if you test is negative do you?
  13. Cool. Throws away across his body though. I'm also going to point out the horrendous strike 3 call by the umpire in the first video. Not hard to strike out 12 when you get calls a foot off the plate.
  14. If they can continue - could they make masks mandatory for infielders and runners?
  15. Just brutal. Sad if true. HOF will have the door open for him.
  16. While I f***ing hate Montoyo - I do wonder how much influence the FO has on Charlie's early season use of the pitchers. Perhaps they've decided they should treat this more like spring training? Could the high performance health team be dictating the bullpen use? This level of incompetence is alarming and makes me think there might be other factors in play that we aren't privy to.
  17. Except he didn't use one pitcher in back to back games that series - unless you consider Brian Moran a pitcher, which I don't.
  18. Dude you called for Moran to get more high leverage innings. Maybe just take the rest of the day off?
  19. Do you have to pause before a fake throw to 2nd base? Because Roe just didn't pause at all.....
  20. I tend to agree. That was instincts. Hopefully Vladdy works hard to get better at first. Seeing how fat he is - I wouldn't hold my breath. Trust fund baby who's success won't tangibly change his life.
  21. You DFA Moran as baseball eliminated the LOOGY. You put Cole in because he's throwing the ball well.
  22. Buck - everyone was surprised Montoyo took him on the team. Grant - give him a chance at high leverage innings Reality - Moran f***ing sucks.
