    I watched a little bit of Perez against the Phillies last Sunday. While he only gave up the one run, he was dangerously close to giving up a hell of a lot more. In 5.1 inn8ngs, he gave up 8 hits and 3 BBS. Made some good pitches when needed and was bailed out twice with a DP. If I recall, the ump was pretty generous with the corners. I guess good pitchers are the ones that get out of jams with minimal damage, if any.

    I know it’s not his true position/first position, but Morel has started 50 games in CF in the Bigs just last year and played in a total of 57. I’m not that verse in defensive metrics (other than the basic Fld%) but I don’t know that he’s a liability out there. I know Ross mentioned that Morel needs to play/bat everyday, so bringing him up as a bench player is not an option. But he plays enough positions that between DH and subbing a player or two each week, seems like he could get the ABs in the future.

    Did you give MLB.TV customer service a call.? Last season, I was blacked out for any Padres games even though I live in southern AZ. After a while, I called and they said it was a simple mistake. They pressed a few buttons and it was fixed.

    Barnhardt is a lefty, but Gomes was 6 for 11 off Eovaldi in his career. Small sample, but….

    Looks like the game is postponed TBD date.

    Something that should surprise absolutely nobody: the White Sox have placed Eloy Jimenez on the 10-day DL with a hammy strain.

    Jinx!

    You can’t stop this offense. You can only hope to contain it.

    Giants have 7 HRs (so far) today against the Southsiders.

    Meant to post this the other night, but I watched some of the White Sox / Astros game from Opening Day. Roger Clemens was in the booth, and I thought he did a really good job. His analysis was great and he wasn’t dickish or overbearing at all. Wonder if that was a one time thing or if he’ll be a regular.

    Admit it. Swanson’s sh!tty spring had you second-guessing the signing. Just a little bit?

    Small-ball beatdown?

    Wonder if Ernie would want to “play two” today?

    Pay the man!!!!

    That’s on me. I didn’t remember which forum to open the “2023 Other Games” thread. Clearly picked wrong. Feel free to merge/delete/whatever as necessary. The topic, not me!

    Dylan Cease gave up a lead off single. He’s then struck out 8 of the next 12 batters. The Astros hitters look completely lost at the plate thru 4 innings. Cease is dealing!

    The inning was a Tale of Two Infields.

    Maybe that stuff Yadi uses would be better.

    Under With the off day tomorrow, they’ll use the bullpen early and often.
  24. PackLandVA
    Yeah, I get the stats, and it’s clearly well deserved. Just visually, it looks like he’s uncertain he’ll catch the ball. Nothing natural about it, but he gets the job done.

    Every time I hear “gold glove LFer Ian Happ”, I’m befuddled. Every ball hit to him looks like it’s an adventure.
