2015 Spring Training Game Thread

How many home runs did die hard hit that one year?

 

Did Dubois have a crazy HR spring once?

 

I'm just trying to calm myself down over here

Bryant's OPS through 25 AB: 2.072

 

I think you nicely ask Bryant what position he wants to play and then plan around that.

Just laughed out loud like a big dumb idiot.

They should retroactively give him credit for 200 games played already so as to not offend.

Addison Russell with a single and is now 2-3 and batting .409 in Spring Training.

@pgammo: Two bombs by Kris Bryant, one by Addison Russell...what a 7 year run it will be for the Cubs

Not all good news though, Kyle. Addison only has a .955 OPS thru 19 ABs. Can't win em all.

Meh. I'm not going to care about Spring Training stats unless they make prime Bonds blush.

A marginally acceptable 1.128 thru 28 AB. SO frustrating.

There's a decent chance that Addison just slots in at 2B if you want what is best for the team. I certainly hope not, but I don't think you move Bryant off 3B at this point unless his defense forces it to happen.

[bigkid66]

I hope Javy saved some of his signing money

[ctcf]

Coke threw what I believe was his 5th straight scoreless inning in ST.

[Brian]

the only logical explanation is that Kris Bryant is a terminator sent from the future to destroy all baseballs.

[kujay]

JFC can we start the season holy [expletive]

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I think Bryant absorbed Javy's powers, Highlander style.

I don't think his defense has to force it to happen. I just want them to put out the best defensive alignment possible with the players they have. I don't see any reason to try to make Bryant's individual value the highest it can be. And, again, I think he has the ability to be a plus OF and mitigate some of what is lost from being a negative 3B anyway.
