  1. Stroman didn't really seem to have it at all that inning, good to get out with just one run Wonder about guys getting gassed faster early on this year, and Stroman came out of the gate with bigtime velocity today
  2. I knew it was night and day but horsefeathering christ
  3. Didn't actually pitch that well unfortunately
  4. Peralta is an extreme flyball pitcher who gets lots of swing and miss. Might be one of the worst hit and run candidates you can draw up?
  5. Including the big league club, the org struck out 69 opposing batters today. Every club had double digit K's. And this isn't some non-prospects bullying kids several years younger than them. Luke Little was the least prospect-Y starter, and he's a lefty up to 99 MPH
  6. It's going to (fairly) get lost in the shuffle but, presumably done for the day, Ryan Jensen with: 4 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 4K and 50% groundballs
  7. :flythew: This shutout brought to you entirely by homegrown pitching
  8. It is *extremely* early obviously, but Patrick Wisdom's made contact with more than 75% of his swings so far. It takes a lot more than two games, but this is something where changes become meaningful pretty quickly. If he's still north of 70% a week from now it might be a story.
  9. I'd like to see Keegan get 2, and then Rucker and Roberts each to get an inning. Get guys into the action sooner rather than later.
  10. Herz definitely looks like a reliever, but then again so do Madison Bumgarner and Chris Sale
  11. They're up 7 runs, Steele was under 70 pitches, and 7-8-9 is due up, I think we can be okay with him going out there Yeah I wanted to pull him after 4 because he seemed to be getting wonbly, but after those insurance runs leaving him in was a no brainer to leave him in
  12. Hiura swung through a 92 MPH fastball right down the middle. He is NOT fixed Btw let's pull Steele after Taylor regardless. Job well done but no need to push our luck
  13. Hoerner's groundout last inning was 108 MPH, which based on a cursory Fangraphs look is the hardest hit ball of his career Him leveling up a bit power wise would do a ton for this lineup
  14. Uelman was a guy with a turbo sinker and not much else IIRC. I'm guessing he's found a something else that works for him
  15. When I took the over on this game because I thought a SP meltdown seemed fairly likely, this was not who I expected it from
  16. Ian looks as locked in as I've ever seen him Really felt like last year he started well but hit into a lot of bad luck, then bad process followed as he got frustrated and he spiraled. A hot start to the year would be huge
  17. Not shocked that the Angels are the first team we've heard about on the bad end of this
