Let's go Brooks

what an absolute piss missle from Long

Caple had popup single to shortstop that allowed a run to score and preceded a 3-run HR, so I’m going to chalk this start up to bad luck and keep moving on with my life.

(Actually, I’ll go look at the video after the Cubs game.)

Wow, SB got no-hit. Ayers wasn't playing.

Hartshorn isn't playing either

Wanted to see McGwire's velo but the Pelicans broadcast doesn't have a reading.

10 Whiffs through 3 for McGwire

5K/0BB through 4.  Fun surprise.

Health and control were his biggest questions. Would be fun if those are put to rest this year.

Finishes with 11 whiffs.

"Sitting 94" seems a little more realistic.  

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Sitting 94 is a tad disappointing but maybe he's just trying to reel himself in a bit to throw strikes

The minor league season is starting in a fun way for young'uns. I try not to look at anything for at least a month, we are near to there and there is a lot to be happy about. If they could *really* start a development engine like the Brewers and Dodgers, look out.
