That was pathetic.

You couldn’t pull a greased tee outta my you-know-what

lol how did he do that

Somewhere right now Tony La Russa is smiling

Haha of course he did (in Jacksonville though)

Wolkow bomb way out.

Colby Shelton bomb. He’s been super impressive, especially after his horrid debut last year.

Bases clearing bases loaded double for Shelton. Kid is swinging it. Bonemer with a couple walks today, which is good to see.

28 pitches (22 strikes) through 3 perfect innings. Would be kind of silly to not have him go back out imo.

He’s definitely raking. I’d like to see his BB and K rates closer to last season.

Don’t hate me, but I think a little more patience is due. I know it’s been a while now, but this hasn’t been a typical rebuild in the sense it’s a complete organizational overhaul. He’s doing what most of us were clamoring for, and that unfortunately takes a lot of time. Reinsdorf can go f*** himself though.

It goes both ways. If people want to post irrational s%*#, that’s their prerogative. But don’t go pearl clutching when other people do the same thing just because they s%*#-post from a different perspective.

Can’t just send him down - out of options - or I imagine they would have already. He’s been bad.

I have no idea their motivation, but I do like the fact he has his own MLB debut day. It’s a big moment and would kinda stink to be overshadowed.

Yeah me too. He takes some really awkward swings on them. Appears he’s got all the right intangibles to address it. Even if that’s a weakness he can still be solid.

Some positives in that game. The loss didn’t piss me off as much as usual. Noah’s nerves and a couple of relievers that will likely be gone soon did us in. Murakami had 2 walks and hit the ball 100+ the other three times. That was great to see.

Running like someone was standing on his feet.

Shelton must not like living in W-S much.

Yeah I’m hoping he can just hold his own for this one. Would be great if he shoved, obviously.

Shultz also jumped up 46 spots to 33rd overall and Oppor gets an honorable mention, noting his lack of feel for spin holding him back.

Good call

They’ll need to send a pitcher down, presumably Davitt. Thirteen pitcher maximum.

McClanahan’s velo is down about 2mph since we last saw him. Hopefully that continues just for tonight.

Kind of glad he’s not debuting the same day as Shultz. Let the kid have his own day.

I’m guessing Tuesday.
