  1. The control was my biggest concern. Too much missing off the edge and not getting swings. He is going to occasionally get hard, especially against stronger lineups, and has to be able to minimize the damage by not putting guys on. He got away with it today.
  2. Hendricks survives 5 innings, and he was mostly ok, but I still get the feeling that the way he pitched isn't going to fly against 90% of MLB teams.
  3. Kyle at 66 pitches with 0 outs in the 4th. This is probably his last inning, at best.
  4. Better get someone up. We've seen this before.
  5. If Caissie gets a shot, it won't be at Happ's expense, and I imagine it would largely be as a DH.
  6. Didn't he have one on opening day a few years ago?
  7. Hendricks gets the start tomorrow. I guess that means Taillon back to the IL.
  8. Tauchman swinging at the first pitch hurt. Really needed to have PCA get to 2nd with no outs, then he probably would have scored.
  9. Is a trade still a bad trade when it was equally bad for everyone involved?
  10. Will next off-season be the one where Jed realizes bullpen roulette with a bunch of castoffs isn't the way to go?
  11. It's time to move on from Keegan. Like, permanently.
  12. We went to machine pitch this year for 7 and 8 year olds and it is so much nicer to get the kids seeing good pitches to hit.
  13. My son's team doesn't have a single pitcher who can throw consistent strikes. I sympathize with Pirates fans.
  14. Can't wait to get Madrigal and Mastrobuoni both in the lineup on a regular basis.
  15. In the past, rain delay theatre would typically involve checking back in with the broadcast team every 30-60 minutes for an update. Now it seems like they just disappear for the entirety of the rain delay and nobody provides any updates until the game is about ready to resume.
  16. On the other hand, they will be on their 3rd reliever already in the 5th inning, so there's that.
  17. I can't find specific verbiage related to rain delays and the 3 batter minimum. There is an exception for resumption of a suspended game, but I'm not clear whether rain delays are included there as well.
  18. I'm not sure what I expect a Connor Joe to look like, but it certainly isn't that.
  19. Yikes. 3 pitches, 3 strikes, without taking the bat off his shoulder.
  20. Man, not sending Nico felt like a big mistake at the time against a guy like this... And it was.
