Watch it on CSN at 9 CT. Commercial-free.

At this point in ST, with this being a night game on tv, we should see Sale-Kershaw and opening day lineups(or close to) for at least 5 innings, which is great!

This lineup is very close to yesterday's predictions for OD. Bump Lexi to 9th, moving Conor and TFlow up 1, and I think that's the lineup I'd have until Beckham, Dunn or anyone else is moved or acquired.

Kershaw makes a regular season start in Sydney in less than a week so I imagine he'll be pretty stretched out here.

Beckham has a strained left oblique. No baseball activity for 7 days.

I'd rather watch Semien and Davidson anyway.

Absolutely. The Beckham showcasing doesn't need to begin til the 31st.

 

First game for me this season! Hyped and two Shiner Bocks deep! Holla.

Is Shiner Holiday Cheer any good? Had it once. But cant remember.

Sounds like a seasonal. Couldn't tell ya but Bock is the only thing everyone carries besides the usual Bud/Miller products.

 

Sale sucks ;/

Adam EATON !

Strange to score it a hit and a 3-base error

Maybe Beckham will be out awhile and Semien can start the season with the club

Eaton inside the park homer/error, Semien double, Abreu ground-out, Garcia RBI single. Nice, love that group. Except for Abreu. The bust.

They changed the scoring to an inside the park homer, fwiw. I would've had it an error, but loved the wheels.

Alexei might have made quite a few errors last season but he's still a great defensive shortstop. Abreu did well at first there too.

Some of the commercial free "filler" content has been great. Seems like the theme for the team this year is to do what's best for the long term value of each player and the club as a whole, with a focus on success now. It's a nice balance.

Semien's been having a bit of a rough time defensively this spring.

 

Would be nice if they decided on SS or 2B for him (or 3B, for that matter)...instead of morphing him into a utility guy.

 

He's probably best suited for 2B, but he has spent more time at SS, which is natural for a player's development. Would just be nice to see him not moved all over the field like Beckham or Viciedo.

 

 

Lazy play in RF by Garcia. Kind of was back on his heels (ala Jermaine Dye sometimes) and didn't get all his momentum moving forward into that throw from the outfield which could have been a close play at home if he was positioned correctly.

 

Little things. Hopefully they don't carry over into the regular season.

Love Semien's approach at the plate. He is going to be a good hitter for us
