QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 03:55 PM) I'm unable to watch the game, (currently in my car driving to Joliet), but are you saying Jose cut how leg stride in his delivery to the plate? If that's the case, I hope it doesn't cause him problems either. Isn't Jose a big work-out freak? Hopefully he has enough arm strenght to compensate First of all, get off your phone while you are driving. Secondly, he is always a very straight up pitcher, but looking closely at his plant foot, it appeared he is still pushing off gingerly.

L'Bridge's head moves a ton in his swing.

QUOTE (CryptviLL @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 03:33 PM) i also dnt like how stewart klooks behind plate Terrible throw to 2nd, luckily Alexei cut it off and nailed the runner at home.

This observation has nothing to do with the results. Jose has alot of work to do to get ready for the regular season. His motion is all upper body IMO.

uribe scores wearing #23.

And as soon as I say it he throws a nasty splitter.

Still no forkball for the Count.

Catcher's interference. I must admit, so far Stewart hasnt looked great behind the plate. Crossed up several times already.

Dye with a web gem down the right field line

Jose is leaving his pitches up and I think alot of that is he doesnt appear to be driving off his right foot. Uribe RBI single scoring Rowand.

Uribe DH'ing today.

A-row pops one to the wall.

QUOTE (CryptviLL @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 03:17 PM) free webcast? ima check it This is prob Jose's last inning.

Quick inning for Zito. BA as a leadoff hitter makes me want to puke.

BA pops up.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) I imagine everyone is out dancing today... Why not do both? I'm excited to get a glimpse of Jose.

Ah, I guess it wasl L'Bridge turning that dp.

Jose doesnt look to have much leg drive, I hope that doesnt lead to arm trouble. Getz turns a nice dp there.

Cant believe nobody started a game thread. Free webcast.

Utah state has hot cheerleaders.

Is GMJ out of the OF picture for the Angels?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 12:23 PM) Lofton would have been a much better option last year than Griffey, and would have cost less. He's either 40 or 41 and hasn't played in 18 months. I think its a longshot he can be very effective and stay healthy, although I'm sure he is still an upgrade over Owens and Wise. Its not going to be anyone good. Pierre, Lofton, PODS, are all third or fourth tier players, but are better than Owens and Wise.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 20, 2009 -> 11:58 AM) If its true, and Gregor has never struck me as a guy who breaks stories,it almost has to be the return of Pods. I was actually thinking Lofton.
