ron883 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Assuming that Vaughn doesn't get.extended before the season, Yermin and Collins are definitely making the team. Backup C and DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two-Gun Pete Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 With this lineup, the only things that matter are: 1. Getting through this game healthy, and 2. Carlos Rodon throwing a metric fuck-ton of strikes, getting ahead in the count, locating his FB, and once again, throwing a metric fuck-ton of strikes. Him walking the fucking yard like Cease did yesterday would be an issue, IMO. IMO, the second key to this game is as important or moreso than the 1st. Fucking throw strikes today, Carlos.

This may be the most a human being has ever wanted pitcher to throw strikes in a spring training game. And I’m not judging. Just pointing it out.

And I’m not judging. Just pointing it out. Thats fair. As a fan, I really want this team to have a good season. I'm also tired of the younger SPs walking the yard, and holding up this entire team's ability to compete, by them not throwing enough strikes, leading them to not throw enough innings, leading to a heavier-tham-necessary workload on the bullpen. So, I want for them to strive mightily to improve their outcomes. Better? Edited March 21, 2021 by Two-Gun Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodon/Cease are so important to this team’s success. Even if just one of them has a solid season, I would really like our chances this year. And I completely agree that Rodon needs to work fast and get ahead of hitters. We know his slider is excellent, which makes his fastball even better if he’s ahead in the count.
