I've developed an irrational distaste for Brooks Lee. That GIDP on a 1-0 count only serves to reinforce it.

Miranda rode the bus today. Ominous in regards to Ty France/who’s going to primarily play first

I suddenly understand the mysterious hold he has over our FO and manager!

I think teams are required to send a certain number of likely major leaguers on the road during these games.  The top four in today's lineup look like pretty representative players for the 26-man in a few weeks.  I dunno, it's fun to read the tea leaves but I think the cup needs a little more stirring as yet.

Keirsey just lost some brownie points I'm sure.

I have a distaste for him coming north unless he has a monster spring.  Half a season at AAA to prove himself could do a world of good.

A swing and a miss, followed by a called third strike.  Castellano off to a good start.  (Jinx? What jinx?)

[ashbury]

I'm enjoying the grimace on the plate umpire's face every time he turns to the camera and announces another challenge.

97 mph fastball, with some decent secondary pitches.   A lot more spring training to go, but he looks usable in an extremely SSS.

Liking it here,  and showing the balls missing by the inches only helps ,  F--k  what the umpires think !!, and cmon Miranda 3-0 count  swinging at the moon dont help,

[USAFChief]

We scored!!1!

[USAFChief]

Who, pray tell, is "D. McCaughan?"

 

 

[USAFChief]

Austin Martin with a little reminder why Harrison Bader.

A dropped fly ball in CF due to the sun.  Without looking at the lineup, someone could probably guess who it was anyway.

"Because Austin Martin" seems like a good all-purpose answer to a lot of questions.

[mrtwinsfan]

Glad to see our Outfield defense shining -  AGAIN,  LOL

I love it, but hate how they’re using it. Challenges suck

I'll take Spring Training Road Games for $100, Alex.

At least they've been quick.

 

If used, it would be mildly interesting to see who really knows the zone. Mildly.

Good Laugh needed ?--  watch the mlb interview with Cory Koskie and Harold Reynolds , involving Big Popi

I am very tired of watching Pirates drivel already.  At least it's free.

Francona has the Reds players opting out of the ABS this spring in that it won't be employed this year; "distraction from anything that helps us win this year." Reds MiLB is employing it.

Maybe the Phillies will take him in exchange for us keeping Castellanos.  😀
