    If only my family adopted that philosophy.

    Rays announcers raving about a catch by Buxton. Apparently he was very shallow and made a catch on the deep warning track. Very tough catch made to look easy, according to them.
  3. big dog
    Infield hit to Longoria.

    There was a note in one of the newspaper columns that said they tend to only make half the players take the long road trip, and Buxton and Sano got to stay in Fort Meyers yesterday, so that might have something to do with giving Sweeney one more day. But i prefer to think that it was a matter of Terry Ryan listening to bigdog.
  5. big dog
    At least it didn't hurt, I'll settle for that.

    Those of you watching the thread noted that yesterday, I sent a heartfelt plea to Twins mgmt to quit playing Sweeney. I would like to thank them for listening. I also enjoyed saying ARCIA GO BOOM!!!! two times, and would appreciate another chance today, even though I don't deserve it.
  7. big dog
    He's still getting used to centerfield. Everything looks different from there. Wait, that's not it.

    I really enjoyed Joe's broadcasts. Seemed like a nice man who loved baseball and loved his job. RIP.
  9. big dog
    well, better late than never for this...ARCIA GO BOOM!!! Looking for a big year from him, in a Twins uni.

    Here we go Twins, here we go <clap, clap>

    The Marlins announcers came back after the inning break and led with "Well, the Marlins are sending out a search party to try and find the ball that Stanton hit." I would love to see a replay but the radio feed is really blurry.
  12. big dog
    Dear Twins Mgmt, Can we please end the Sweeney experiment and give the at-bats to people who will matter in April? We all know you are going to take Buxton north anyway, and heaven knows he needs the ABs. Sincerely, bigdog
  13. big dog
    Yeah, the Marlins announcers wrecked a mike by drooling into it. Sounded like an incredible shot. Still, sounds like a very nice spring training start for Milone. Stanton hurts a lot of baseballs. I'm not a huge Milone fan, but of course I'd prefer to have him do really well as compared to poorly.
  14. big dog
    Glad to hear it. Hope it hits what it swings at a little more often too.
  15. big dog
    Outstanding PxP, DrNeau. Much appreciated. Particularly enjoyed the linguistic analysis of Park!
  16. big dog
    ARCIA GO BOOM!!!!! Geez I hope I get to say that 25 times this year.
  17. big dog
    That's interesting, and a little surprising, but watching him the outfield speed has not been evident. Maybe he makes up for his speed by not knowing where he should run when he isn't going to a base- could be he just get bad jumps on the ball. -- and of course Sano is likely to suffer some of the same problems
  18. big dog
    Kyle Schwarber is also painfully slow. Sano's adequate speed is also part of the equation.
  19. big dog
    OPS of 720 marking a downward trend, the recent market for 3Bs, and he gets traded for a closer?
  20. big dog
    5 appearances. First 2 scoreless. Next 3 were terrible. I think he'll have a good year, but he isn't changing my mind about starting him at the moment. If his concentration is not there, that's a problem he better fix.
  21. big dog
    It's a long season. He may get a shot. His spring stats are among the worst on the team.
  22. big dog
    May did not look good in his outing late in today's game. I really like him and hope he's part of the rotation soon, but he isn't exactly making a strong case for himself lately. Maybe he can work on some things in the pen and be ready when he gets a shot.
  23. big dog
    I was only watching on TV today, but Nolasco looked good. He was hitting his spots, good movement on the ball. I'm a huge Duffey fan, but so far, yikes. If you trust Molitor to make changes as necessary, I think Nolasco has to be the one to go north. If you don't trust the manager to put the best players on the team and make changes when that isn't the case, that's a different problem.
  24. big dog
    I know this isn't the Big Rays lineup. But Nolasco, gulp, looks good. Nice location so far. Just gave up a hit on a really nice curve ball that the batter managed to blast about 15 feet up the line on 8 hops.
  25. big dog
    So...he's learned to control his errors so they are less dreadful. I guess that's something. Nunez scores on a sac fly. Buxton tries to bunt with two outs and is out easily. I agree with Brian- Suzuki hitting to the right side was the only artistic moment so far.
