What the last 2 games have shown us is our bullpen depth is pretty darn good. One run over over 14 straight bullpen innings in pretty strong. If...
When was that we had success a top level prospect? I guess Brown and the jury is still out on him. The rest of the guys were all under the radar....
I was Abreu's biggest defender last season, but this is getting nuts. Maybe he can't recover from this. He looked good in Spring training before...
Does he hang out with the wrong crowd?
You've gone off the deep end SJC.
I think at this point, the biggest mark is Abreu and health. He looked great in the Spring until the injury. Obviously Framber's elbow is a...
Glad it isn't drugs but hope he doesn't need TJ. Seems like all pitchers get it eventually.
Maldy was better prepared as a catcher, but Yanier has better intuition when it comes to calling a game. Yanier had a lower ERA last season even...
What would you have said if I told you Blanco would be solely responsible for two thirds of our wins and Abreu, Pressley and Hader were...
It doesn't help that our 2, 4, and 6 hitters were total no shows for the first 6 games of the season.
Even when he pitches right in the middle of the zone, people have been laying off of it because it looks like his fastball above the zone. My...
I'm saying that his statcast numbers shows that his changeup moves less than 2 percent more than other people's changeup. The movement isn't...
I think Alavarez at the 2 slot is a failure. He's our best extra base guy. You want as many people on base as possible. With Pena showing some...
Looking at his statcast numbers, his pitches do not move more than average. The changeup actually has less horizontal movement than most. He's...
Yeah, but the split finger was nasty in itself just like Javier's fastball. His changeup is only as good as how it looks compared to his fastball....
That changeup is filthy compared to his fastball. His fastball is at the top of the zone or above the zone and the changeup ends up at the bottom...
Blanco is giving me 22 Javier vibes. He has a standard pitch that behaves totally different from other pitcher in the league. There is almost a 9...
You let Blanco go one more inning and then you bring in Abreu, Pressly, and Hader and hope for the best.
He's for real so far. That change-up is bamboozling hitters like Javiers fast ball 2 season a go. It must look just like his fastball
Blanco has to be close to the record of no hit innings to start a season, right?
