Maybe I’m just becoming a grumpy old fuck, but it bothers me he was laughing about it.

What did I miss?

In a regular season I’d give him a few starts, but after watching preseason and now today, I think it would be prudent to switch roles with gio and see what happens.

He drives me nuts with that.

We weren’t exactly bustling with expectations as a team in recent years. If anything it’ll help not being “8th overall pick Carson Fulmer” and instead being “waiver claim Carson Fulmer”

Would be nice to get some momentum back here.

That lineup is special.

Let’s get some hits. Or even just one. Nothing since the 3rd.

Unreal.

My nerves are already shot.

I thought the joking tone was obvious.

Change the game. More like change the channel, amirite!?!!??!

First time I’ve been able to see Dunning pitch. Looks pretty good.

Benetti doesn’t make me “cringe” This thread does, though.

Anybody else streaming from mlb.tv? There’s no sound on mine for whatever reason.

With zero movement.

I would love to get a major league pitcher in the game. Rocket after rocket.

This guy is brutal.

This is also my guess for team record. I don’t think Robert has the year people are expecting offensively. Something like Eloy’s first 60 games. Long terms still great, however. I think Cease and ReyLo show signs of improvement, but don’t quite “break out” I think jimmy cordero is lights out. I expect tim to regress with the bat, but still be good. I have high expectations for his defense though. I think Eloy and Mazara are going to mash.

Back in the day, some people worked 16 hours a day in 100 degree weather for free and got whipped if they spoke up or made a mistake. And you’re telling my these lazy coal miners, who get PAID to work, can only do 12 hours?

Big frank should have won a third MVP that year.

I’m as optimistic about Vaughn as the next guy, but come on. Abreu was a good hitting major league first baseman last year. Even draft year fatigue considered, Vaughn struggled in A-ball. If he can hit like Abreu as a finished product we should be happy.

Pipeline has his change as a 60 pitch - better than his slider. But they seem to be an outlier there. Still odd to see one outlet say his change is a plus and another say it’s near non-existent. his slider certainly looks good. Haven’t seen his change at all though, myself.

Passan is the best in the business.

Now batting for Boston, N. York.
