March 13, 20233 yr Just now, chw42 said: Nice play by TA to start the game, but that's gonna get overturned. He really should dive on those. His success rate on those plays is bad.

March 13, 20233 yr Padilla just pitched a scoreless 8th for PR. And Ruiz technically got the W for Venezuela yesterday.

March 13, 20233 yr Back to back to back bobbles in the IF (by everyone but TA) lead to a run for Mexico. Graveman called in to put out the fire with 2 on, 2 outs and gets the job done.

March 13, 20233 yr With no hits and multiple misplays on defense, McNeil is having a rough time... and I'm quietly hoping everyone who wanted to trade Liam+ for him feels very silly.

If those were White Sox players in the lineup, we'd have a dozen posts about their lack of passion. Example: See Moncada and Robert's performance in the first few Cuba games. TA was the only one who looked like he was trying.

Hopefully this Mexico game is a kick in the ass for team USA. They really haven't looked all that interested on offense so far.

They really haven't looked all that interested on offense so far. They definitely did, and I know we'll obviously care more about how Yoan and Robert perform than how Betts and Alonso, but when our players had bad outings it was all over PHT. Good moments from them, TA, Ruiz and even Graveman stopping the bleeding last night (even if for one out)? Crickets. Granted, that game was late as hell. Let's see how Lance does today, but man, DeRosa's managing last night left a lot to be desired.
March 13, 20233 yr Should have been a first pitch foul out. 3rd baseman and catcher miscommunication.
March 13, 20233 yr Not sure who the color guy is, but he just dropped one of my all time favorite "what?" lines: "With all these analytics, we get lost in the scoreboard." I understand what he's trying to say (i.e., people caring too much about the stat sheet vs. on-field production), but that was such a dumb way to phrase it. Speaking of announcers, someone please fire John Smoltz into the sun.
