Yoan. So good.

I would be real happy if Basabe comes back and just goes nuts. Especially with the slow starts of other OF not named Robert.

I mean. It was also a double header today.

Some Manoah looks in here.

Is it normal for a catcher to drop his glove hand down while the pitcher is going into his windup? It's like Collins isn't giving him a target to throw to. Or at least it's a moving target. Seems like it would be infuriating. I don't know much about catching though.

This isn't a bad time to get hot.

92 to 95 range I guess?

Velocity I'm curious about. I don't believe he usually sits in the 95-96 range.

And the game is done. West Virginia homered in the bottom of the 9th.

So Manoah is shoving hard again. 9.0 IP 3 H 0 BB 15 K Game is scoreless. He better be done. 115 pitches.

Vaughn will be his replacement in short order.

How much has Cordell already outvalued Palka?

I like a walking Yoyo too.

It's fine. He's just going to let Yoan get all the RBIs.

Woo! Something!

Rally Engel time?

I think people need to accept that this is Carlos now. Averages 91 to 92 on the fastball with occasional bump to 94. He hasn't been a flamethrower for a while now.

Are we going to do this Rodon velocity thing every start in every gamethread this year?

I for one miss the "Recap" option that they seemingly removed this year under MILB games. Would just have line items saying "Player X grounded out to player Y," for every event that occurred in every inning as it happened.

Ding ding ding. Yup.

Good morning. See below for a BA scouting report and a blurb from the new top 400, He jumped from #198 to #72.

Robert single.

Hey. A Rutherford homer.
