Simply stunning to me Brandon McCoy went undrafted. Thought he would be a definite lottery pick after seeing a few games of his early in the year.

It was decent, but holy cow did the previews give away too much of it. Previous Jurassic World was way better IMO.

First season definitely better. Second season wasn't bad, just first season was so much more entertaining.

Well yeah, they can't tell Jerry they saved him 3 million like they could last year

Absolutely hate the two Bulls picks. Have followed carter since high school when he had interest in GT. He disappeared far too often at Duke, as I though they were better when he was off the court sometimes.

It's crazy how much Larnach swings like Hafner.

Real nice swing on double. Like seeing the ball travel far off the bat.

Giolito isn't qualified it appears.

Their outfield is underwhelming besides Springer. Marisnick has 136 at bats for them and is hitting .176

You mean like this Mr. Parkman

Apologies to the Call family if they're on here...yes appears to be. Good news for all

I hope they're not doing the rotating outfield thing with Robert/Gonzalez/Rutherford/Call. The first 3 should be getting all the playing time possible with Adolfo at DH.

If the gun was slow, then that's exactly what he was at. I know I've said this a lot, but once he figures out how to elevate the ball with 2 strikes without losing velocity, his strike out rate is going to skyrocket again.

Did you expect him to be 99-100 consistently as a starter?

Doesn't this feel like deja vu from last year

Don't get me wrong, I'm very content with what I saw from Kopech. If he had this same umpire with the command he had last start, he wouldn't have made it out of the first inning.

Avi is ready. Another homer, just missed another.

They have such different fastballs, it's not even worth worrying about for you. Kopech had more swings and misses on it tonight than I saw Giolito have all year.

On the tv gun, he hit 97 once. 95-96 with every other fastball in the zone. Every fastball up and out of the zone was 91-92. Again, it could be the Charlotte gun is 2-3 mph off.

Well yeah, look at the outfield and catching crew they have. Timmy hasn't hit for power in a while. Also it's called facing great Indians pitching. I do think one thing that is becoming obvious though is they need a power upgrade at 3rd next year.

I would take Adley over Madrigal and Larnach this year. Keep losing Sox

Not worried yet, as this seems to be a Sox thing trying to sacrifice velocity for command. It's not like Kopech ever averaged 97-98 fastballs last year over the entire game. His fastball also has far more explosiveness than Giolito.

It's the same velocity he was throwing at in April. When it's hitting 91-92, it's clearly mechanical. It's blatantly obvious when watching. The stuff is clearly good, just not as electric as last year.

He's throwing a ton of fastballs. sliders haven't been close enough to the zone to get chases. In terms of pitching in the majors, he better learn to pitch effectively up in the zone if he's not going to have other-worldly velcoity. 95 at the belt being the only pitch you command is going to get hit very hard. I've seen him throw at least 7 pitches 91-92 helmet high today.

Legit smallest zone ever. Meanwhile the great Grudz makes the starting pitcher and catcher have to fight their own battles. Same crap he pulled last year. He is a horrible manager. As for Kopech, it's easy to see where the struggles with command have happened. When he stays on top, his command isn't bad and velocity around 96. When he tries to throw up in the zone, he gets under the ball and its way high and out of zone and velocity around 92-94.
