"He is a stud - his body looks like LeBron's , about 6'4" solid muscle." Do we have a picture of Eloy working out to prove how off this take actually is? Maybe you actually meant La Pantera?

The Tigers will be the tougher team with Greene back and then one more year to add FA's.

LOL. Zack Collins now looking like a HoF hitter in that Blue Jays lineup. 5/12 (417) 1 3 (3/3 today with a homer)

After just 8 games? That award almost always goes to managers who see their teams through 15-20 game positive swings from year to year in victories. The Twins are down Buxton, Kiriloff and Sonny Gray now. Every team in baseball has injuries due to a confluence of factors.

The interesting thing is that he's right around that 85-86% mark for save conversions...whereas elite used to be considered 90%+. I will give him credit for cutting down the runner at third...that turned out to be the key to the inning, that and walking Choi to get to the inexperienced fielding first Walls.

That's just a bit of hyperbole but with VB tomorrow it's a solid win. Best record in baseball with Mets losing. Very very fortunate to have Walls up there. Not pitching to Choi the right move with McGuire to block pitches now.

And LaRussa as manager...who insists on playing Leury over Bummer.

Had to go to the off speed pitch. Kopech Abreu and McGuire players of the game lol.

Slider?

Those aren't even close.

This is more ridiculous than Colome for twice the salary...

Now have to be really careful with the sliders...Cash with the strategy supported by eye popping numbers.

Aiyo...

Great Zunino next. Please avoid some heart attacks.

Runner might have been on third with Collins Zavala Grandal catching.

Wow that really hung up there forever...thought it might drop.

Go shadows go...

Slider so inconsistent in the early season...and still lacking a tick or two on the velocity meter. Why in God's name is Harrison throwing that ball?

Seems LaRussa considers defense in the late innings to be important every other day. Engel is in RF.

Here we go yet again..

Well sure, the long term prognosis on two TJ surgeries not all that great...

Pretty sure nobody expected Ruiz and Sousa to replicate the 2005 pen coming into today...Politte and Cotts.

Benetti still off more often than not anticipating homers...oh well, can't get everything right.

If Banks and Sousa can become a good (and healthy) replacement for Jace Fry and then Crochet as the second lefty...that would be a massive win for the 30th ranked farm system.

Feels like the 2012 pen...where we had something like 12 rookie pitchers come through most of that season. Along with Q most famously out of nowhere.
