Raining steadily at my house about 4 miles NW of ballpark and radar projections suggest another two hours... and then possibly more light rain...
Good move to sit Donay- who needs a day off- and Evans who seems lost. Lawson in the clean-up spot! I'd like to see him in the 2 hole some day...
Nadeau aggressive base running to take third.. and scores on WP-- solid speed and knows the game.
Menendez was seriously good tonight. Threw 33 (?) pitches in three scoreless inings. Now we're talking! Surprised we've not seen him before...
A logical choice. Barlow is someone with considerable D1 experience and swagger but has been up and down in scrimmages. If he can get it...
Good point! King is from Jacksonville ... but he did throw on Saturday-- not sure his pitch count but I suppose you could give him the start and...
Barlow and King would be my guess for mid week starters. King threw one inning Saturday and he's a freshman so Sully will likley hold him for...
Thanks guys, to be upfront, I was convinced going into the season that McNeillie would be the closer this year - taking over for Neely. But from...
There's your "circle of trust"... the eight pitchers Sully beleives he can call on to deliver. I've heard him speak highly of newbie King and...
I've seen King pitch once in the Fall and once in Spring and talked to others at the Park who have seen him this Spring and he is expected to...
Pete wanted a long term contract deal and now he gets a nice $30M first year with options so he's betting that he has another solid fan-pleasing...
One thing I forgot to note in yesterday's comments is how Nadeau looks like a real gamer. Knows how to play the game. He opened the game with a...
At the park for four innings of a 5-inning scrimmage: quick summary and observations: McNellie started for Blue and threw two solid innings....
I agree. After coming back from TJ surgery and fine-tuning his mechanics, Jake had a very good second half last year and was excellent on the Cape...
Kurland's drop off last year can partly be attributed to his broken hand - which he fractured in the opening series vs. Columbia-- that makes his...
Yes, a great era for baseball. Pitchers throwing complete games and pitching 300 plus innings. The elegance of the era is gone and now it's swing...
Many of my greatest MLB game memories are from the magic summer of 1969 and the Miracle Mets- I was 14 and in "love" for the first time (another...
Good for Neely, he jumped ahead a round or two with his post season heroics. Deserving and lucks out going to a baseball crazy town.
I agree with the comment that it’s a bit of a bummer for Cags to drop to #6 and go to KC- a small market team with a roller coaster history of...
I'd bet Mingione or Vitello. Both are excellent HCs and pain-in-the-butt whiners.
