When it rains it pours

Don't be surprised if he's good in his contract year. I wouldn't mind, obviously.

Remember when Burger singlehandedly carried this offense for like a week last year? Get this man a DH platoon job and he can wreak havoc on lefties.

Burger is insane

What a play by Popeye

Foster was one of the slowest pitchers on the team last year. Let's see how the pitch clock affects him.

Nice play by Romy. Eloy would have either dropped that or crashed into the wall.

I think the rule ought to be a pitch clock violation can't result in a strikeout or a walk. The pitch clock should not be deciding a plate appearance. Especially late in games.

Yeah. I was really confused. I didn't think runners moved up for a pitch clock violation.

Wait, if you commit a pitch clock violation while there's guys on base, they all move up a base? I thought it was just an automatic ball.

Was that a balk?

Yaz is 2 for 2. There's a chance that hit right there is caught with a shift.

How long until Yoan pulls a Jose Valentin and gives up switch hitting? I've never seen Yoan try to hit left on left though, so there's a chance it could be worse.

And Andrus makes a nice diving play at 2B.

On a team with so much raw talent and raw power, what I said should never be said.

If you watched the games last year, Andrus was honestly one of the only guys who seemed dangerous at the plate.

Not scoring with the bases loaded and less than 2 outs? That's so White Sox. Also I'd like to take this time to make the case for Vaughn hitting 5th, ahead of Yoan.

And that's probably the worst time to pull the ball. Cause a grounder to third doesn't move runners up or score runners from 3rd.

If his elbow is indeed fully healthy after his injury in 2017, then there's a chance the resurgence is real. We can cite his numbers the past 4 years all we want, but if the guy played with a bum elbow all those years and it's finally healthy, then those numbers might not mean much.

TA doubles in Andrus.

Rodriguez almost pulled an Eloy

lmao Elvis Andrus is gonna prove everyone wrong isn't he?

I have a feeling the pitch clock is gonna decide a game or 2 this year. Relievers, especially closers, love taking their sweet time. I seriously hope they adjust the pitch clock rules in the last inning of the game.

Relax Jack, it's the 3rd game of Spring Training.

Nice tag by Elvis
