Harold's Leg Lift

Madrigal can't steal a base to stay out of the force/double play. Station to station singles hitter is not a productive player.

One knee bullshit with a guy on 3rd base. Move your ass you pile of crap. Man I feel bad for Lucas.

He's not at Oregon St anymore, Jason. What happens in college does not always translate to the big leagues. God damn that drives me fuckin crazy.

Good job by Collins framing that swinging strike. Good god man.

It's hard to believe Paxton can look this good when his December velocity was down.

Here's a couple more cold weather HS names to remember. Colson Montgomery and Noah Miller. I'd line them up Montgomery, Miller, Mooney. It's a very good year for HS shortstops.

Lucas would think long and hard on that one.

Grandal or Collins: Death is not an option.

It's amazing what happens when a talented player finally dedicates himself to putting the work in during the off season.

They like some college pitchers who likley won't be avaialble (Ty Madden, Sean Burke, Jordan Wicks). They like Joe Rock but if he keeps throwing like this he won't be available either. I've heard they like some HS bats (Benny Montgomery, Wes Kath, Izaac Pacheco). I'm really hoping that's the direction they go.

You can add Jeff Hoffman and Eric Fedde in with that group too. Drafting TJ guys is a mixed bag so I doubt he would be in play for the Sox. I could see him going to a team with multiple picks so they can hedge their bets. Cincy at 30 looks like a good landing spot for him.

TJ for Jaden Hill. I hate everything.

He still has some mental hurdles to get over. He gives up some hard contact and then becomes afraid of the bat. He starts overthrowing and badly misses his spots then the walks start piling up. He has to learn how to forget what happened and focus on getting the next hitter out. It's called limiting the damage. It's an art of pitching that seems lost on the new age pitchers who are simply focused on throwing it as hard as they can.

Sorano...I mean Yermin no like spin.

This home plate microphone is on steroids. It even makes Madrigal sound like he hits the ball hard.

Cease is so easily rattled. Dude is a mental midget.

Ohtani is a freak of nature.

He's got more buzz than that, Kiley.

This one knee horse shit is going to be the death of me.

Collins should just eat that and not embarass himself with a throw.

It's too bad for Benetti that the We Lay it On Thick tagline is already taken.

Hope they keep hitting his bat.

Well stop doing it.

Leiter has 11 K's thru 4 and (of course) hasn't allowed a hit. Kid's crazy good.

Damn it all to hell. Hill walked off the mound. I hate everything. We know who to blame for this.
