I like what MLB.tv is doing during commercials this year with the MLB flashbacks.

Much better than the old commercial break graphic, that's for sure!

 

I'll take the "commerical break" graphic all day over them showing the exact same commercial every half inning

I'm assuming there will be more variety once we get into the regular season... Previous day's highlights, etc.

2020 Cubs an offensive juggernaut

Grace is really do a great job showcasing how bad this rotating 3rd guy could be

[Andy]

Isn’t Marquee going to be having guys mic’d up during regular season games as well? I think I read that on The Athletic.

I'm sure they will but I'd be surprised if they did much with it in game, that seems like they'd use it more for behind the scenes stuff

They've done that for a couple years now. I hope they branch out beyond just stuff that happened last year at some point.

 

It's pretty funny watching Astros highlights.

I'm enjoying it. I mentioned before that I was a big Grace fan, but I will at least grant you that he is probably better tolerated in small doses. There are only so many Sandberg and Sutcliffe stories to go around.

Somebody must have told him say something JD could respond to.

Adam is dealing

[Irrelevant Dude]

They are sure doing a lot of patting each other on the back for a network that a majority of fans can't watch.

scoreboard cam and foul pole cam could be fun

[Cubswin11]

Adam looks like a very intriguing bullpen arm. He has minor league options left too so he doesn’t necessarily need to start the year on the 26-man if they want to let Mills or Underwood or Megill get a first chance.

[Andy]

Fairly lame that the Marquee broadcast isn't on MLB.TV today. I guess they limit bandwidth in spring training.

Ross definitely has coronavirus

Maybe Theo set him up in the scorpion/dog pee house and he's got some sort of poisoning from that?

The only overseas signing the FO could afford.

Javy's an OBP guy now

[Cubswin11]

Almora is fixed

[jersey cubs fan]

Almora is fixed

so can he horsefeathers all he wants with no more babies, the anti-russell

[Cubswin11]

Almora DONG, BRB, going to place an MVP futures bet.

Javy's an OBP guy now

 

There was a study a few years back that said that while ST stats are in fact mostly meaningless, BB's and K's do actually mean a little bit. So if we see something weird like Javy walk 15 times or Ian Happ stop striking out it's worth keeping an eye on.

Welcome to the show Ross.

[Cubswin11]

Ross shows up for his first game and the team completely folds. COINCIDENCE? Or proving the fact the players hate him????

[Cubswin11]

Descalso is playing LaStella like defense at 3B today

Effross pitched. It was no coincidence.
