    That was fun to see. First cycle in Marlins history!

    Nice slam by Rodriguez! Excited about his potential!

    I agree, Even in a situation like the one in this game, it seems as if teams nowadays are adverse to bunting. What a delight to see Taylor bunt in that situation. I love it! And even better that it resulted in the winning run scoring.

    Seeing the starters going deeper into the games without getting the hook is very nice to see. Maybe it's a combination of Rocco being much more confident with this rotation, plus we actually had a spring training of normal length this year. These pitchers seemed like they were prepared to tackle heavier loads even in early April.

    the Might Mussels plated five runs off a flurry of knocks, releasing more hit singles than Earth Wind and Fire. That was my favorite line of the week! Thank you! Keep Your Head to the Sky!

    Yes indeed, another encouraging game for Polanco. When do we expect he'll be back with the big club?
  7. Doctor Wu
    So many shortstops and so little games. Yes, it is a bit of a problem, not only at Cedar Rapids but at other levels too. But as others have suggested, some of these player should be able to, somewhat effortlessly. slide over to second or third base, or even do some outfield duty. Good athletes like these guys are somewhat resilient.

    Tough break for Odorizzi .. and the Rangers. But the Rangers finally have more depth with their starting pitching this year, especially if DeGrom stays healthy.

    Leave it the accountants to decide!

    Having Polanco, Kirilloff, Lewis in the lineup on a regular basis will be a nice headache to have!
  11. Doctor Wu
    I agree. These minor league reports are MUCH appreciated! And great to see some impressive strikeout numbers by both Varland and Festa. Keep 'em coming ... both the strikeouts and these detailed reports!

    Some funky shadows there in the late innings. Thank you mother nature!
  13. Doctor Wu
    More hits from Correa sure would be welcome!
  14. Doctor Wu
    Yes indeed, Beating teams like the Royals and Marlins is encouraging, but if we can't stick it to the likes of the Astros and Yankees we ain't going anywhere this year.
  15. Doctor Wu
    That's the first I noticed that Raya was on the IL also. Any details? Hope it's nothing long-term.
  16. Doctor Wu
    Thanks for all the comments and input on these players. Other than the "star" prospects I don't know much about most of the others in the minors. Good to get more background on these guys. Hopefully, some of them actually CAN contribute to the MLB club in the near future.

    As others have suggested, maybe the time to re-visit this trade is later in the season. At that point, hopefully Mahle is starting regularly and pitching well. And for the Reds, Steer looks like a solid starter at third and when CES is healthy he might come up and start mashing like he did in spring training. Or not. Way too early to tell. But I liked the trade when it was made and I still like it. The Twins absolutely needed another strong arm in the rotation and they got one, and got it without dealing any of their more highly coveted prospects. Could be a win-win for both teams and that's great.

    Anyone but Kepler. Buxton makes some sense on many levels, but his OBP doesn't seem to warrant having him leading off. I'm intrigued by Nick Gordan as a possibility, but he's not a regular starter at this point in the season, so maybe we use someone like Farmer or even Gallo? Yeah, plenty of strike outs, but he knows how to take a walk. Honestly, I don't think it's a big concern as long as we are not leaving too many men on base.

    When does the Japanese baseball season start? I'm anxiously waiting for an Astudillo update!
  20. Doctor Wu
    I'm actually rooting for Cave to succeed in Philly. The fact that he made the opening roster is pretty impressive, although you have to factor in the Philly injuries too. But hey, hope he stays on the team.
  21. Doctor Wu
    That was Hunter Pence, the ex-Giants outfielder, that came out to pull him.
  22. Doctor Wu
    Man, that's sad to see. He was the ultra "hot" prospect only a few years ago. Then again, he was very very young when he signed and sometimes those kids don't develop as expected.
  23. Doctor Wu
    Very happy to see Dobnak on the mound and pitching well again. Hope they keep him in a starting role, even if he has to stay in St. Paul for most of the season. Now that he appears healthy, I hope his confidence returns too.
  24. Doctor Wu
    Very satisfying to start the season with a 3-game sweep, but we also have to put it in perspective: we were playing against Kansas City.
  25. Doctor Wu
    Yeah, baseball is a funny game. For his first month in Detroit that year, Baddoo was on fire, looking like an all-star in the making. But then he cooled off and came back down to earth. I still think he's a good player, and he should be back in Detroit before the summer is over, but maybe those all-star plans will have to wait.
