2-0.  Enjoy Schaumburg Reynaldo. 

Amazing what can happen when you put the work in, eh Carlos??

more good contact by Collins....can he play RF

Honestly how is Collins not the back up catcher??  I know some of the insiders on here say that Lucroy is a lock...but why?   Collins looks competent as a catcher defensively and he has good at bats and he's a lefty.  Lucroy would be fine as a back up catcher but you can't carry three catchers...and why would you take old and fine over young, promising and left handed?

His velocity alone is something to be optimistic about, if his control stays this good he’s gonna be a huge weapon this year

Carlos touching 97mph several times and sitting 95mph today. Slider looking tight. 

Yikes Eaton.

I’m just thankful they brought him back. No matter what happens from here on out, it was a good chance to take.

How about being healthy?

Lopez is absolutely terrible. 

I've never seen such a stark contrast back to back in what would be a battle for a rotation spot.

I don’t really think that inning was entirely on Lopez. First batter was fooled but got the lucky hit. Garcia should have caught that ball in CF. 

 

Lopez had a head to head competition for a starting spot and pissed down his leg.   No other way to look at it for me, Rodon has dominated and Lopez has stunk it up

Good god, stop.  He’s throwing 91-92 mph fastballs.

He has to have had some type of arm issue to just lose it like this

Lots of hard contact. 

So here’s my question....who is our #6 starter?  Wonder if it’s Lambert.

As I recall, Lopez is the same as Joe Musgrove.

Lopez and Stiever sure haven’t claimed it.

If I recall Rodon and Collins are garbage....and spring training is meaningless.  But sure, mock away.

Didn't Katz have him completely rework his delivery? Still has an option left, so let him go to Charlotte.

Lopez definitely needs the be sent down this year.

Rodon and Cease have the 4 and 5 spot on lock imo.

Hope Rodon can keep it up. This board, in general, was pretty nasty towards him when he resigned

Crochet’s slider is unreal

My god Crochet. Lefties aren't going to touch that.
