  1. Im so absolutely pissed off about this..he should never take the field again (and shouldnt have been allowed to after last years fiasco)
  2. Lopez definitely needs the be sent down this year. Rodon and Cease have the 4 and 5 spot on lock imo.
  3. love how that was up and in and he still hit it 400+ feet
  4. Dustin Pedroia, ss, Arizona State University (2004) SCOUTING REPORT: Pedroia's tools are below-average across the board, but scouts say don't ever sell him short. He will be a big leaguer, and probably an everyday player. He's not physically gifted at 5-foot-9 and 165 pounds, but Pedroia is a classic overachiever and possibly the best player in college baseball. He has a tireless work ethic, an exceptional sense of the game and a tremendous on-field presence. No player is as hard-nosed or competitive, and he is without peer as a team leader. He's a blood-and-guts player who thrives under pressure and makes everyone around him play better. Scouts question whether he can be an everyday shortstop on an upper-division team because his arm and range are short, but he catches almost everything hit at him. He has very sure hands, a quick release and excellent hand-eye coordination, and is adept at cheating and anticipating plays. He doesn't profile any better as a second baseman than a shortstop, because more offense is demanded at second. While he leads the Sun Devils with a .412 average and eight home runs, he doesn't have a pretty swing and is mainly a slap hitter. But he has good strike-zone judgment and is a tough out. Among current big leaguers, he compares to Angels shortstop David Eckstein. On raw tools, Pedroia is not a conventional high-round pick but he's a perfect fit for a performance-based organization like the A's, who have four of the first 40 picks. --ALLAN SIMPSON (written May, 2004)
  5. The Royals are going to be good this year, just watch. That lineup is great
  6. unlike last year he looked like a big league pitcher today.
  7. Yeah you could tell they were sitting on his fastball, couple of them were hard hit.
  8. Much better control, he upped his pace. Hopefully this is the start of something great
  9. never understood why they have to show the fucking manager for the whole inning of play. Nobody wants to see the manager being interviewed. Nobody wants the game minimized by 40% so we have to watch someone on the bench wearing a mask and sun glasses talk.
  10. the madrigal hate over that comment is absurd
  11. lets hope Remillard doesnt come up to play shortstop this season. Missed an easy tag and then cant glove the easiest chopper.
  12. not sure why this is even a thing, in that case why even keep spring training records
  13. this isnt a big deal to me, we have him until 2024. Id love to have him signed longer but a lot can happen between now and then, and we can always extend him sometime in the next 3 years. Theres no rush, and we arent going to extend him cheap anyway.
