he should've gotten out of the way, but they scored that to Acuña.

he hasn't made any errors and his OPS is .789. he's a lot better than I thought he would be.

just swing away, all his hits are swinging bunts anyway

Thought his last start of the season last year was good. 10 Ks, 1 BB, 1 ER on 80 pitches, only 4.1 IP. But his first start of the season last year was probably his best. 1 walk in 10 IP so far this season is definitely nice to see. If he can keep the FB at ~96, he's really dangerous.

He can't do anything. Just DFA and eat the contract

Solid defensive inning. Any one of those could've been a hit. xBA on those: .690, .510, .910.

Command lost. Cease could just as easily walk the bases loaded. Rough swing, Mune.

Burke has some nasty stuff. But I feel like his FB velocity can be all over the place. Pumping it at 96, 97 today but it could just as easily be 93, 94.

Acuña's speed is really refreshing. A tapper becomes a double....a triple!!! oh wait he K'd

nice looking crowd dylan cease has been copying my haircuts since he came into the league.

Which leads me to think an 'opener' is generally a bad idea because you'd think you'd want to use the better pitcher in a higher leverage situation than the top of the 1st inning.

That's the idea of an opener, right? So that you can face the hitters with the same-handedness and get a matchup advantage. There's no matchup advantage if both pitchers are the same handedness. The point was made that the 'opener' is generally a lefty.

Not sure I understand the point of a RHP opening for a different RHP. Unless Kay is the one starting.

.750 OBP game. I'm alarmed, why doesn't he hit a dinger every at bat

4/2 Games
Carlson, Fauske, Alcala to me. Big potential imo. McClain, Mogollon, the new guy Boston, LaCombe on a lower scale. Not much interesting in the way of pitching unless some guys come out of no where.

4/2 Games
Where is Lacombe starting the season? I might've thought Kanny but I don't see him on the roster.

Schultz gets the call, Antonacci up too!
It's an interesting comp. J-Ram's power seemingly came out of no where. Sammy "Sosa" Antonacci might be a similar case, he showed a bit of it this spring.

Maybe not, still rather have the extra year because why not?
