Yeah, the thing with him is that you can tell what he'll look like from pitch to pitch much less from AB to AB.




Meanwhile, how does Prado do that at SS? He can barely play LF adequately.

You thinking of another Martin Prado? He's always been pretty solid in left, IIRC-- it's all the other places where he's been iffy.

I've heard some Braves guys down on him in preseason previews, but a quick glance at his numbers does suggest he's okay in left. not good in the infield though, and presumably worse at short.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Nother big moment for Newwy here.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fuck me.

[nymr83]

DAMN IT

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, no way that missed opportunity is going to come back to haunt us or anything.

[Edgy MD]

Don't walk Uggla, man. He's like one for his last hunnert.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Wow, bases loaded, no outs, and bupkis to show for it. I half expected the season to begin like that. Hope it's not back-slide time.

Didn't look too swift going after Wright's double in the 1st inning.

Mainly I was just pissed off at the backup's backup's backup SS making a run-saving play with 2 outs in an inning just one inning after the backup catcher, who's only in there because the starter knocked up his (meaning: his own) wife, hits a 3R HR.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Batista in mid-season form.

[Guest themetfairy]

Holy Fucking Shit!

Baptize the kid by fire why dontcha?

[nymr83]

NICE fucking pitch to get the K there Edgin!

[nymr83]

EDGIN!!!

[Guest themetfairy]

Baptized!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I love this Edgy.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Welcome to the bigs, Cy Edgin!

[bmfc1]

Now gets some runs and maybe get the kid a win.

MLB.TV is back, and now with no commercials (I'm sure that's temporary), which is pretty kool. Its like sitting at the game and seeing all the boring stuff between innings

I'm enjoying that, too. Home Depot race, kiss cam. Like being at the park.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Fucking Larry. He will haunt the Mets to the fucking end.

[Zvon]

Chippers thoughts as he approached the plate: " I don't know who this kid is but he's a Met so I'm gonna show him who's boss"

Pitched him well til that last pitch. Id have rather had seen a walk, but there you have it.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Nice to see Terry coaching up the kid once he's come out. Worthen standing there trying to learn something.

I wish they'd always leave the cameras on. I loved the way they stayed on Edgin after his triumphant first inning.

the gameday audio usually stays on, just somewhat muted.

[Edgy MD]

Way to go, Rony. Don't let this lefty killer go un-rightied.

[Edgy MD]

Prado doing a good job faking it.

Seven-five!

[Edgy MD]

You let Murphy bat next or do you switch to Turner?

[Edgy MD]

Terry sticks with the Muff.
