    It is Margot, but looks like Pedro Florimon.

    Buxton!!

    Julien with just the tonic!

    I counted only once.

    I would have rather seen him slug a home run. Eh, tomayto, tomahto.

    He felt the jersey flutter and sold it to the ump.

    Austin Martin's first MLB appearance is as a pinch runner. As expected. (Actually yes, that was mentioned quite a bit today.)
  8. ashbury
    There's no defending that.

    How did Witt not destroy his right quad with that double?
  10. ashbury
    As expected.

    I see it's nothing to nothing. Good! I haven't missed anything.

    Mrs. Ash thinks I don't know how to act my age. But I've never been this old before.

    I doubt any of the AA guys will have their feelings hurt by being bumped up one level. 😀

    Guys already on the 40-man roster will always get the first look except if they are injured.

    That would put him in dire straits for sure.

    Concur. It's one thing to acknowledge that pitchers throw in ways and at speeds not attempted more than a few times per game in the past. But trying to score from first on a double in the corner? That was old when Alexander Cartwright formed the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club. Royce and the braintrust need to figure something out pronto before any more of his prime years get wasted away. The above discussion is broad and interesting, but the bottom line is he tried to do one of the fundamental things in baseball and made it as far as second base.

    That's a lot of words when K.I.S.S. would suffice. 😀

    Let's hope Martin starts hot with the bat. That throwing arm (check out the last several seconds of the video, where he 3-bounces it to third base) is going to limit his usefulness to LF and 2B only, and there should be too much competition for playing time at those spots if his bat is only so-so. He was drafted (and traded) for his bat, and if the bat plays at DH, then he can truly make his case.

    Everyone has their own personal criteria for Best Baseball Movie EVER, but "Major League" surely ranks in just about everyone's top 10.

    "Straight ball, I hit it very much. Curve ball, bats are afraid. I ask Jobu to come, take fear from bats. I offer him cigar and rum. " Words of a wise man.

    In addition to the various flavors of the Like button, the site needs a Knock On Wood button, because this article is about the jinxiest thing I have read all year. Knocking furiously on the solid cherry end table, as I hit Submit.

    I don't get it. Wait, now I do.

    I pulled a quad during my slo-pitch years, and let me tell you a thing or two... oh, never mind. 😀 Good luck, Royce! Hope you make all the pessimistic prognostications look silly.
  24. ashbury
    The White Sox suffering? My, that IS fun (with numbers).
  25. ashbury
    I think the premise is that for defense, third base is covered by a Castro/Farmer tandem. So bringing up a bat to fill what Castro covers (yesterday it was LF) is the question. In that case Martin is in play, maybe, if they think the bat is ready.
