Autumn Dreamin Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 1 hour ago, Autumn Dreamin said: Solid 2IP for the Dart. Gave up a double, but nothing else. 2K on 18 pitches, including 7 changeups. Hard hit 109mph single to lead off the 3rd for Korey Lee, who then stole 2B. Seems like some of these changeups were miscategorized sinkers. New pitch for Martin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Feel like Martin could turn himself into a nice little trade chip with a strong first half. Lots of cheap team control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of cheap team control. No no no....unless you get something better back. He has to cover innings if they hold Big 3 back. Trade Wilson Perez first. We don't know Thorpe's status yet either. Iriarte and Carela aren't big league starters. Bush out. Do we really want to watch Nastrini or Clevinger?

This season is a wash anyway. If Martin has a good first half or season and some team offers a promising hitter for him, they should at least consider it.

This team is so far away from being good again that everyone with any value at all that isn't one of your top prospects should be traded as soon as it presents itself. Yes, I will gladly watch Natrini and Clevinger if it means Davis Martin brought back something that will be useful in a few years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin could definitely be more valuable to the Orioles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burke only one who could be 2-3 guy at his best. Other than Big 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 I'm old and have seen a lot of spring training baseball that doesn't mean jack s%*#. But this team is getting ass blasted for a reason. We could be worse than last year in all honesty. The SP will be horrific, and for most of last year it was simply mediocre to bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 (edited) can we trade for Rockies out fielder? they seemingly have 7-8 guys Nolan Jones Jordan Beck Doyle only sure starter Hilliard 3-4 more guys in this one Edited February 25 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autumn Dreamin Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Do we have to do this thing where we pretend not to understand that process > results in spring? Process: Colson punishes a low fastball. Result: Inning ending out for a hitless day. Which piece is more predictive? You can have a bad process and get bad results, like the 2024 Sox. You can also have a good process and still get bad results, like the Dodgers 1-4 spring record this year. The Rockies had a .586 win% in spring last year, and then had a 101 loss season. The process is the informative piece rather than the record itself. The Sox being bad at both doesn't magically make the record matter. I don't care about Cactus League standings, I care about the process improving. But of course, everyone here knows that already, because none of you would be infused with optimism by a bunch of spring wins driven by errors from opposing AA defenders or lighting up camp invite reclamation projects (though, of course, when OUR #96 filler from the backfields gets lit up, it's totally predictive of the season to come...) Judge the process. Or don't, I admit that it's a pain with inconsistent broadcasts and data. But then also don't be a spring training box score watcher declaring that you know they'll be bad because Colson went 0-3 and a pitcher working on a new FB shape gave up contact that got misplayed into runs by a MiLB deal guy who won't make the team. So much server space here is wasted performatively complaining about silly fake things when there are actual real things to complain about and it makes it so discouraging to try to have actual baseball conversations. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This post makes more sense for any Dodgers fans bitching about their 1-4 start. Death, taxes, and the optimistic people shitting on everyone who is pissed off about this organization.

Can we at least not pretend that most of these concerns aren't directly due to either previous concerns over a particular player, or the fact that this was literally the worst team in the history of MLB, and people don't need to be gaslit for remember that?
