    I don't know if they'll worry about the Super Two with Glasnow but he could be up as early as May or June. Taillon hasn't pitched many innings the past two years due to TJS so he's probably on a much more limited track this season - I guess it depends on how good he looks to start off and how creative the Pirates are with his innings so he can help the big league team.

    More from Phil:

    To be unnecessarily fair to Jackson, it was probably more between Schawrber and Conforto than Jackson. Schwarber had more power with 40 HRs in college to Conforto's 31, including only 7 as a junior. Fair. Alex Jackson was in the mix with about two weeks to go. Then Conforto seemed to be the leader before Schwarber came on strong in the days right before the draft. I never got the Conforto infatuation - same defensive questions in the OF without even the potential at C AND less power than Schwarber.

    Alex Jackson is starting his second full pro season in extended spring training. Kyle Schwarber hit a home run into a river during a playoff game in his first full pro season. Thank you, Brain Trust.

    http://mbpelicans.mlblogs.com/2016/04/05/2016-pelican-roster-breakdown/ Myrtle Beach's rotation: Daury Torrez (surprised since he wasn't stretched out in Arizona), Jonathan Martinez, Jake Stinnett, Trevor Clifton, Erick Leal and Zach Hedges. Kind of disappointed David Berg didn't end up at Tennessee. Based on Arizona Phil's blog posts, it sounds like Berg was one of the last guys demoted from Tennessee to MB.

    They go the first month or two with 6-man rotations and then kind of end up with a 5-man after that due to injuries, promotions, etc.

    May have been the phone camera pointing at him, but I'd prefer to think that he was staring at you like that for 10 minutes straight until you took a photo. There was a line of fans to take pictures with him and shake his hand, as though he was some sort of celebrity.

    Ricketts staring at me, for some reason.
  9. CaliforniaRaisin
    That was tons of fun. Only complaint is that with this lineup and Arrieta, you have no time to get beer.
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    He'll probably start late to limit his innings. Yep. No De La Cruz, guess Arizona Phil is right that he's injured. Pretty happy to see EJM make South Bend.
  11. CaliforniaRaisin
    Sounds like this game might not be sold out because I got a Groupon email this morning for tickets. Yikes, Anaheim.
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    But then where would I post?

    My wife and I combined an AFL trip [back when Bryant and Soler were there (plus Russell!)] with Sedona and the Grand Canyon. It was good fun. Chase Field is annoying but these Cubs are well worth it. We went there for the first time last season for the Cubs visit. My wife actually double barrel flicked off annoying Dbag fans in front of us who were talking trash (and then they left meekly when Rizzo crushed them to oblivion). I love how salty home fans get when Cubs fans are overwhelmingly loud.

    horsefeathers. Yeah. My second straight season opener.

    Umfan, start the opening day game thread already. I don't care if you have a newborn or whatever.

    Let me have today.

    The last place Cardinals sure has a nice ring to it.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Damn. I picked up James Kaprielian after the draft thread had been locked. Thought it was safe. Truffle, I'll offer you a 1-for-0 trade of Kaprielian.

    I mind because I'll be there on Monday and want to see Soler, not LaStella.

    According to Arizona Phil, Oscar de la Cruz has an elbow injury of some sort:
