  1. kill the Wabbit! Kill the Wabbit! edit: Ninja’d
  2. While I agree that Celestino is a better fielder, Gordon has 8 appearances in CF to Celestino’s 6.
  3. Considering Larnach, Gordon and Kepler have all figured out which end of the bat to hold, I’d think Celestino is the roster casualty from the outfield. They’ll need a platoon outfielder and Garlick is pretty much it.
  4. 1) agreed, the bullpen has been “fine” it’s not a strength, but I think Duran will move into higher leverage and hopefully they can develop some more quality relievers as the season goes. 2) great to see Kepler finally look like his potential again in ‘19. Keep it up! 3) I still think Sano has a lot of DH potential with a strong eye at the plate and power swing. That being said, good to see Arraez play 1B well as a reserve and continue to hit for high average. 4) no way would I reduce the depth of the starting pitching staff. They used 16 starting pitchers last year, and the fewest they’ll use in ‘22 is 10. If Winder is number 7, they’ll have a chance at a good rotation for 162 games. If they start trading the players that give them depth like Archer or Bundy, the doldrums of August could see a bunch of starts by quad A scrap heap guys. injuries already have, and will continue to chip away at the perceived depth all season long. You can never have too many SS, CF, C or SP. Never
  5. Dang work, getting in the way of my slacking off... how the heck did Jax wriggle out of that one?
  6. alright Celestino! first RBI on a swinging bunt
  7. If that is peak performance, maybe I have hope of achieving such a lofty goal
  8. Great outing for Ryan! 90 pitches, they’ll probably stretch him out to 100 next time around?
  9. I missed one, thanks for clarifying and providing your assessment OOA has him at a 0 at first, which is a step up from -2 over Sano, but two games is waaaayyyyy too small to judge anything statistically.
  10. Interested to see how Arraez handles first. Seems like he did OK the first go. Did his short wing span affect his play?
  11. So… when is the name change coming? nm DIBS!
  12. Thanks for clarifying! it wouldn’t shock me if they stayed 14 pitchers, but the lefty/righty matchup hitting has been so hampered by the short bench. I’d guess they try to pickup a righty bench bat off waivers.
  13. I found this story to be very interesting. Things I wish baseball would do. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/33803500/the-nhl-tech-heavy-plan-draw-young-fans
