  1. better this week than opening week. but he can't nibble that much. He was trying to get cute.
  2. Robert missing some fastballs today. Hope it's just the spring training dog days. He might be out guessing himself I guess.
  3. An extension announcement on the broadcast would be nice... Vaughn can come out of the dugout with a giant oversized check thats memo is "hey Gio...we're rich, biatch! "
  4. same thoughts. Not a fan, but the results looked great yesterday and maybe motivation, plus Katz, plus some more oomph on that fastball makes him at least a solid pickup until Kopech ramps innings in August.
  5. do we have B game feedback on him...or is this the first game?
  6. Agreed. Outside of his first outing and that promise, I just see a very hittable FB and control yips.
  7. glad to see Cease's line and that curve...but that Cubs lineup is meh.
  8. For sure. In a utility role he is gonna be great and realistically why sox didnt pursue any of the lefty utility guys so many wanted here
  9. To be fair there are about 50 humans on earth that can lay off that pitch...but yeah, he needs to be one to be elite
  10. I am guessing this is the last weekend of pointless lineups and starting to see some reality next week. thank god.
  11. Man, rodon and cease have zero room for error with Lopez still sucking. My first gulp of spring training
  12. yeah, he completely transformed his body and almost no one has seen him since. "Elite" body has been thrown around, but his skills need to catch up to it before publications notice.
  13. NOT once has the full starting lineup played together. RELAX people. good lord.
  14. Yermin has proven himself. He at least gets the start of the year at DH, right? Unless Vaughn gets said extension, he has to be the answer.
  15. that play isn't going to go over well here... Eaton misjudged a liner pretty badly.
  16. i live 5 minutes from the new Braves park...I can confirm people drink quite a bit...and I am glad to see how much cheaper our beers are there! Pre and post gaming in ATL is the real problem though. the park is literally an entertainment complex with like 12 bars built into the outside of the stadium...and 10pm and later is just a puke fest.
  17. Since AAA is delayed...you can't manipulate time at all, correct?. Looks like AV is the starting DH. You are NOT waiting until mid may/early June and taking the division seriously to play games.
  18. If he is willing to sign...you do it. I can't seem to find who is agent is? Anyone have that and see any reason why he wouldn't be eager to get going. He already has the 7.2 mil draft deal, this would set him up for life.
  19. Wanted Vaughn up again with runners on. This is silly.
  20. perennial 30 hr/ 40 steal / gold glover 265-280 career BA, and a 5-6 WAR player every year. He hits his peak in 2024 and from 24-27 he will be a top 10 player in the league with a 7-9 WAR peak a season and at least one MVP. He should be a #2 hitter in most lineups, but because Anderson/Moncada, he probably settles in as either a #3 or #5 hitter. Personally I put him #1 and watch him turn into a Soriano 40hr fastball leadoff crusher. But this team is too talented for him to bat there.
