I liked pulling him there. Better to do it a batter too early. I think we see crochet today.

TLR pats Cease on the back and cease rolls his eyes hahaha. Pretty great exchange.

Haha I can’t blame a guy for dropping the greatest word in the English language.

What’d he say?

I really think he’s fine. Bad luck and probably a bit out or whack mechanically. Velo is fine, so his arm is ok. Gio is smart enough and his arm that as long as he’s healthy I don’t worry.

Somehow I never thought about that... now I’m curious.

I’m the opposite

Also far from a finished product. He started 2021 as a qualified rookie. Let the guy play 300 games and let’s see how he’s done.

Look closer

He’s going to be a 2.5-3.5 WAR 2b. It’s not something to dream on, but it’s fine. Sometimes fine is enough. I think now is one of those times.

He has every ingredient to be an absolute stud. I love that he’s dialed down the velo a bit. He doesn’t need it, he just needs to stay on the field.

You’re not wrong, I just can’t see them trading someone like Soler to the Sox that early. I don’t think it’s a great fit anyways, but it’s a possibility.

Haha how do you argue that? Just sit down.

I wonder if the Royals give up by July if Soler is a trade target.

He calls it verbally and then physically. I think it’s obvious by his calls that he also can’t walk and chew gum at the same time.

Emilio estevez? That’s generous. Vaughn looks like a telemarketer.

Sale was also a fairly (maybe not as much as perceived) more valuable pitcher. And yet the return for Q was arguably better. Too bad Dave Cameron decided the Sox blew it and waited too long to trade Quintana. Honestly I’m surprised any Mlb team employs that guy.

Missing arm-side big time on his fastball. Opening up a little early. Off speed stuff is spot on.

I think kopech is still fighting his delivery a little bit. Just a bit off. Watch his front shoulder.

It was like a sacrifice K

Great AB

No glove can compete with Nicky Muscles.

Junis said the same thing when Matheny walked out.

Salvy overframes sometimes. Grandal is good because he’s subtle and doesn’t bother trying to frame obvious balls.

I never realized how aggressive hamilton swings sometimes. I dig it.
