    Off days in the early season are often to allow opening day to be delayed and played the next day (since opening day is a big game and often a more expensive ticket). So the Jays and Marlins have no risk of getting rained out so they don't have an off day baked in after opening day. I'm not sure why the Braves don't start until Friday though.. As a fan of baseball as a whole, I wholeheartedly agree that opening day should include ALL teams.

    I liked his response to that though. "Shoot for the stars and you can land on the moon." I think there's a good mantra there to set high expectations for yourself and get as far as you can.

    Could you imagine how much of a snore it would have been had Judge agreed to do it instead?

    Raleigh also appeared to regress on defense last year as well which I would bet had some impact.

    Who are you? Do you work in baseball or just very passionate about it?

    My guess 1. Roy 2. Delgado 3. Stieb 4. Bautista 5. Tony

    Thank you, I swear I read the intro...Clearly I wasn't paying enough attention to it.

    Either I missed one of them further up or Alomar isn't eligibile for the list as I count 6 guys for 5 spots. Delgado Stieb Halladay Bautista Alomar Fernandez

    Jordan Walker seems like a guy who needs a change of scenery or a new voice in his ear to take off. The underlying metrics are there with insane bat speed but he needs to alter his approach and cut down on the swing and miss.

    I figured :)

    So was Pujols

    Something that imitates Estrada’s change up would be very exciting. At any rate, there could be some benefit to a pitch that’s different than normal too.

    I don't remember what podcast it was I was listening to but they mentioned Cease struck out 4 off that new changeup in his last spring start.

    There is a little museum area in the Braves stadium that has this kind of thing that includes the World Series trophies from when they won. It’s pretty great and I would love to see something like that in Roger’s Centre provided it is not in some area only club members can access (like the really cool sounding baseball card wall).

    Here's one I have had in my head for a while. Cal Raleigh hits less than 30 bombs this year.
  17. mphenhef
    He wasn't available for those games as the timing wouldn't allow him to be on regular rest for opening day. There is a reason Yamamoto and Skenes pitched in the quarters.

    I was going to say "To be fair, when is the last time the #1 and #2 ranked prospects won", then I decided to look into it and found it happened in 2023 with Gunnar and Corbin Caroll and 2018 with Shohei and Acuna

    Defense usually evaporates due to decreases in speed. Where Varsho gets his value from reads and routes moreso than speed I wonder if his defense will persist similar to KK.
  20. mphenhef
    I wonder how much of this is to keep him away from opposing teams, scouts and statcast setups in the early season so there is less data on his delivery point. I suppose pitching in the World Series means this is all out there anyway.
  21. mphenhef
    I think they either just had a baby or are about too.
  22. mphenhef
    That was about Trey in a sim game.
  23. mphenhef
    Most definitely. For all we know he could have just been throwing the curve he has been working on or trying something else.
  24. mphenhef
    Did the report come from Trump's truth feed?
  25. mphenhef
    I wish the Jays had signed that deal and figured out how to make it work on the roster.
