Mercedes may be the best left fielder I've ever seen.

Not sure if serious or joking?

Madrigal is going to score a LOT hitting before Robert. 

so long as there is a runner on first for him to get his fielders choice (jkjk) ...

Whenever I watch Robert, I get left with the impression that Wander Franco must be incredible 

Collins has looked great at the plate in these intersquad games.

Collins oppo taco. There we go.

Collins 2 run oppo shot!

I kept watching that thinking Robert had a chance to get to it.

Agreed.

And then heart skipped a beat when it looked like he was going to stumble by the fence.

I'm pretty sure this is the first baseball game Garfien has ever watched.  He's over the top over every little thing that happens.  

I can’t hear Tayron Guerrero without wanting to say TayTayRon.

I really wish they wouldn't have signed EE and given Collins and Mercedes a look at DH. 

My first look at Guerrero's new delivery. Thanks Sox.

I think part of that is also that the grades on Robert's defense are way too low. Nothing against Franco, but having watched Robert's defense for years now, I don't get how anyone can think he's an average/typical defender. Yet, his scouting grades are typically uninspiring

At least we can have a short leash with him. Not sure Ricky will do that, but we'll see. I assume EE, Abreu or Grandal get injured at some point too honestly. There will be at bats to go around.

Herrera is still bad. That is one of Hahn's worst. hopefully he gets hot for 30 games.

If they can get his walk total down around the 4 per 9 IP, instead of 6 or 7, the kids arm will play.

Eloy deep off the wall.  Gets into 3rd safely!

I thought that was gone with the sound of that one.

Regular season, Engel makes the play

He definitely let up at the wall.

Also Eloy dogged it around first.

Damn I thought Eloy crushed that one long out.

Mazara beats the shift to drive in Eloy.  Love it!

Love seeing guys swing against the shift.

Do you think it was intentional? I thought he just flat out missed it
