I thought this format was so much better than the timed format where you can't even see where the balls lands. This way created a lot of dramatic moments, let the moment breathe, it was nice. It has to be less taxing physically on the players as well. I hope they keep this up for the foreseeable future. The actual directing and broadcast left a lot to be desired. They kept doing extreme closeups on the hitter and showing the players watching while batters were swinging. Also, Will Ferrell reminds me of my Grandma, but less funny.

According to Baseball Savant/Statcast the arm is as advertised.

Per Baseball Savant/Statcast for their careers at SS Acuna has averaged one out above replacement every 294 innings, Colson has averaged one out above replacement every 65 innings. It's pretty clear they aren't close defensively. Acuna is currently -1 for the year at SS and -2 in CF.

For sure, I think his well above average size for SS also just makes him look a little less clean than a typical MLB SS. Anyway, it's fun as hell to watch and he's quickly become one of my favorites on the squad.

It's honestly difficult (for me anyway) to grade his arm at this point because he's so elite at reaction/first step you very rarely have to see him put max effort into a throw, he makes it all look easy.

Yeah, I watched him float towards it when he should have been sprinting. I think he's going to be a stud, but he's a lot more raw than I expected.

Wonderful, now send Braden down until he learns where to throw the ball and hit cutoff men.

What's the latest on Teel? I'm so anxious to have his energy back with this young squad. They're already fun to watch and I love the way Kyle plays, feel like he's just going to elevate the experience that much more. Edit, maybe I should just scroll down a few topics to the "latest on Teel" thread.

"Get off the ledge!!!" was an all time great Farmio call on this one.

My cousin just sent me a text that according to his source (it's a decent one) that Robert is gone and only a matter of time. I would assume it's for a trade. Appears to just be wild coincidental timing on the text and injury.

He's been real fun to watch the last 6-8 weeks or so. He looks like a totally different dude from last year and busting his tail.

The press release mentions the app/chsn.com options at the bottom, so it appears that is still available for those without Xfinity.

I graduated Providence Catholic in 2002. My Uncle Jim went to high school and college with Pope Leo. He was on a couple news shows yesterday and is the "Jim Priestley" seen here with the Pope in a couple photos. Leo is the one with the checkered pants in the St Augustine photo. Pretty cool! Apparently he was over to my Grandparent's house in Tinley Park a few times growing up.

Respectfully disagree that a sprinter can barely run a mile in under 8 minutes, again, children can do it with ease.

I will ban myself for making this topic garner this many posts, I wish there was something better to talk about in the world of Soxdom.
