I need to pay better attention.
-
I was a serious golfer in my late teens and mid 20s. I wasn't good but occasionally I'd break 100 and rarely break 90. But I was also completely frustrated while doing it. Bitching at myself when I'd hit an errant 3 iron or miss a five-foot put. One day in the middle of a bad round I just quit playing and started drinking. I still drink and I don't play golf. I've played occasionally, maybe once a year for a few years, but I haven't played a round since 2016 and I don't miss it at all. It's an incredibly frustrating game, if you're trying to be good at it.

Caissie with the quick bat. I may be underestimating him.
-
I like that they are giving Mervis a lot of ABs. He has not taken advantage of the opportunity to this point.
-
Good patience for Morel this spring. He's looking really good.
-
No one is going to want him unless the Cubs dump a pile of cash to go along with him. I agree, ST doesn't mean anything. He's definitely not a starter and they are short on LH guys, so he's on the team.
-
MLB.tv will not ruin Barracuda for me. I don't care how many times I hear it in that commercial. That is one of the best riffs ever recorded.

Smyly blows ass.
-
Back hand, got to the ball, couldn't transfer and made a late and bad throw to first.
-
Smyly gave up another tater and is getting rocked. He can't get the ball down.
-
Smyly giving up a lot of hard contact. Tough to through breaking pitches in Arizona, but... Morel cost him 3 runs.
-
Morel needs to make that play
-
If they go with three catchers on the 26 man roster, I'm traveling to Chicago to issue a formal protest to Jed.
-
Morel did not miss that.
-
Minor league announcers again. Interesting.
-
I agree on both accounts.
-
He's a sexy young man with a winning smile. But he also cannot hit a fastball up in the zone.
-
You can add Canario in that list too. I think he's going to take a big step forward this year.
-
Some context for the fishing tweet https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/justin-fields-manager-posts-video-hinting-where-bears-qb-could-be-traded/
-
not ironically, the recipient didn't understand it.
-
I am interested in Michael Carico. He could be steal based on where he was drafted.
-
Cody is back, do we have a timeline for when he's going to get into games? I'm guessing a week or two? It will be interesting to see if the protracted negotiations have any effect on his early production. There are lots of variables at work here though.
-
Jed has built-in redundancies all over the field, but this is one relatively thin area. They can mix in Wisdom, Bellinger, and perhaps Mervis although this spring he has not shown much so far. If Bush fails mightily this may be a warming spot for Pete Alonso at the trade deadline if the Mets fall out of contention and they can't work out an extension for him.

There was an interesting article on Williams in the Athletic today. On one hand, I like that they are concerned with making sure that Williams is fairly compensated. On the other hand, they (the Williams team, father and advisors) sound like a nightmare to deal with. I definitely see this being very offputting by the McCasky family. https://theathletic.com/5301341/2024/02/28/caleb-williams-quarterback-nfl-draft-ownership/

Has anyone seen him this spring? Did he drop any weight?
