Lyle Moooton

Colson leads off the game with a 115 mph single off a 96mph fastball.

Good call you’re right

In Hagen’s first start it took him a couple innings to find his release point and once he did he was quite literally unhittable. He didn’t get a chance this past weekend because he hit his inning pitch limit, but feasibly could have done the same. If the issue is being more consistent with his mechanics and release point - or at least finding it earlier in the game - that’s what the minors are for.

I seem to remember when we drafted James Beard comments on how weak his competition was with high school baseball in Alabama. That would make me apprehensive on putting much stock in Hall’s numbers.

Good to know, thanks

Still no Ramos

He was gassed, but I don’t mind pushing him a little. Good possible learning experience.

Robert is so smooth out there. What a jump.

It depends who the prospect is. I’d love Hope, but I also have no hope.

Colson lines out at 112mph to cf. tough break.

Oops.

Reyes’ slider looks really good.

Smith done.

Any word on the issue?

I don’t think it’s coincidence Robert had a good game with actual baseball weather today. Most exciting win in a while. I actually jumped off the couch when Baldwin hit that.

I expect we’ll see a lot of Baldwin and Taylor in the corners. Vargas could maybe cover left too, but I would guess they’d prefer to avoid that.

Think he can stay at short?

All 4 affiliates have double headers, no?

Watched McDougall instead withe the delay in the Barons game, and …wow. He looked filthy.

Really excited to see Taylor pitch. This forum is a breath of fresh air compared to the main one.

Oppor looked great. A little erratic at times, but lots of life on everything.

Without reading I’m going to assume it has to do with not being owned by a guy who does the Nazi salute. Anyways, sure. He’s been a good bat in the past. Maybe he hits and you can deal him for something useful. We had Nick Maton DHing today.

I’d guess something like 30-40% of top 1-5 picks have less than 1 career WAR. But anyways, why let stats get in the way of hyperbole. Enjoy the game, fellas. They’ll probably lose and who gives a s%*#.

lol I guess if you add the “got to the majors so quickly and put up a roughly zero WAR over 5 years” qualifier, you may have a point. otherwise, there’s like 25-30 3rd overall picks alone that have lower career bWAR.

He sucks, but he isn’t even close to being an all time bust.
