for me, it's all about the "in play, run(s)"

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Dae-Eun Rhee, seriously?

[rawaction]

Dae-Eun Rhee, seriously?

 

He's earned it with all the time he's been on the Tennessee roster. Gotta go with the vet.

[MSG T]

predictions on what date the minor league threads start becoming longer than the major league game threads?

 

tomorrow.

 

javy is going to hit 4 HR

 

 

Not with game time temps in the upper 30's and an 80% chance of rain. And it's supposed to snow tomorrow.

 

I'd bet tonight's game is rained out, but they have a good chance of playing tomorrow night (low in the 20's though) and Saturday. Weather is supposed to be pretty crappy for most of the next week.

[expletive] twitter. Seriously you'd rather watch stupid tweets than CJ Edwards live? I've never seen him pitch, besides those two gifs. I'd actually like to watch him pitch a complete inning.

Speaking of, we need a new Fangraphs list with all the top guys.

 

I think someone may have posted one at PSD. Lemme check.

 

EDIT - here, unless someone wants to put one together like the old ones we had with pitchers and position players separate

The poster mentioned that Torres, Jimenez, and Tseng couldn't be added yet.

Dae-Eun Rhee, seriously?

 

Heh, every spring I assume he's going to get released, but that guy still hangs in there.

 

Heh heh, an opening day with such high-ceiling future stars as Chris Rusin, Dae-Eun Rhee, and Felix Pena isn't super inspiring. Anyway, Rhee clarifies shot he 5th starter is for Tenn. Assume Johnson, Black and Pineyro for three others, and probably Loosen for the other guy until Pierce Johnson gets back.

[The-Kris-Bryant]

Iowa for Baez's 4-5 PA's. Smokies whenever Baez isn't batting.

Yeah sounds like a plan. And Smokies for when Bryant is up to bat, and the half inning Edwards is pitching.
