  2. Tim Timmins, they're never gonna let you back in Cowboy Junkies with calls like that.
  3. That one reached the outfield. First-pitch swinging, Noah. Time to adjust. Past time, maybe.
  4. Bour, on the other hand, has a little Biff Tannen going on. Three infield singles so far for Miami.
  5. Walker didn't impress me that much. Yellich sort has a JuCo look to me.
  6. Fernandez sure seems to have a bigger torso than I remember him having. He seems to have used his rehab well. He's no Syndergaard, of course.
  7. No transaction announcement yet, but Rafael Montero is reportedly en route to join the team, presumably stepping in for a paternity-leavin' Jacob deGrom. As noted in the Las Vegas thread, Montero went five innings in the 51s' opener, yielding three hits and two walks, allowing two runs, one earned, and striking out five guys.
  8. I gave it three stars. I was put off by a little extra nastiness and winking product placement, but I'm sure I owe it at least a half star more for having a moral that, while heavy-handed, speaks right to the heart of our current political situation. I like how they have a lot of fun with the all these mammals sharing a society despite their disparate sizes, forcing them to come up with adaptive and duplicative infrastructure that serves multiple sizes at once.
  9. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Swapping Cespedes to RF vs. LHP & getting Lagares in CF, batting 2nd, vs. LHP. The deference that keeps us from asking Cespedes to play right hurts my brain. It took Terry a week or two to ask him to play center, and he was all... OK! Hey, everybody, fielding flies in right is easier than in left! Ask Roger Cedeño!
  10. Here's looking forward to the day when Grandy and d'Arnaud's batting averages aren't disgraceful even when added together.
  11. I hope they have redundancy if Matz doesn't turn a corner — in Verrett and Gilmartin and ultimately, Wheeler. But yeah. I worry about how long they'll ride him. I worry about how long they'll ride Grandy too. And I hate watching these guys rip a pitch only to see it eaten up by the shift. I worry about this team's shift vulnerability, I do.
  12. He's been a third baseman so far. Muno did most of the third basin' last year, which kind of tells you how things go in AAA. You get a surfeit of middle infielders, and some of them have to play third and some of them (Ty Kelly) have to play outfield, and so they're all in training to be utility men.
  13. Some folks were frustrated with d'Arnaud and wanted to move right on to me. Well, you got more of me than anybody last year, and I performed like a major leaguer. A reserve major leaguer, perhaps, but hey, I WAS A KID! So, they're giving me the backup job, and I'm looking to assert myself. Me and Travis are buddies. Pals. We double date. Do want what he's got? Oh, yeah. Will I get it? Why don't you tell me.

  14. I think there's this over-thinking going on. That he has to change his motion in order to reduce stress on his back. But it's... what? Four throws a night? All this mechanical adjustment is doing is making him more self conscious in his execution. We know from experience that Wright's throwing errors have come when he's had plenty of time to think, and now, the mechanical changes are just making him think more. Like that isn't going to make him tighter. It's like trying to teach José Reyes a new running motion as a grown-ass adult. Whose dumb idea was that? Plus, Wright got a paucity of time during spring training to walk out his new motion in game situations. Just let him throw.
  15. In an alternative universe peopled by intelligent mammals, where predators and prey have learned to live in a modest harmony — coexisting despite their relative sizes — a country bunny dreams of moving to the big city and joining the police force, where she quickly stumbles into a mystery that threatens the city's uneasy tranquility.

  16. Hey, Blevins gave up a baserunner!
  17. Even Ichiro is stinking up the show tonight.
  18. They still have Blevins and Hendu, but I'd figured if either of them were available, they wouldn't be using Familia here.
  19. Familia coming in for the eighth. Who gets the ninth? Laggy or Wecky?
  20. Well, at least Cespedes is taking.
  21. And Flores swings 2-0. Glub.
  22. And Flores listens not.
  23. Take the first strike, Mets.
  24. Reed has earned some beer tonight.
  25. The thing is, the Marlins' team is twice the Mets' quality in defense. Just, you know, not tonight. What insanity makes that a hit?
