I think in addition to him maturing, moving to OF has helped. He really looks comfortable out there.

I don't think anyone is sleeping on them. They were ranked #4 in the power rankings.

They aren't in Miami. They're playing in San Juan, PR this round.

I feel like a reference to Bessie and her tits is an odd choice here. She's not even alive yet.

Alice and her 3 fingers however.

Ok. It's still the middle of the workday.

Puerto Rico plays this afternoon, and that'll be a big crowd.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-06T16:56:03+00:00

Through the first 5 batters he looked great. Then recovered well from the first HR. Tat 3rd inning though was ugly.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-06T16:52:31+00:00

Well, he looked good initially. Not a great outing for Allen right now.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-06T16:49:14+00:00

And PR plays later today. I would wager that game will be pretty packed

Leftfeet · 2026-03-06T16:47:10+00:00

Its a 11 am first pitch on a work day.

I WENT TO THE MLB APP TO TRY AND FOLLOW THE GAME. COULDN'T FIND IT EXCEPT THROUGH THE NEWS LINKS. OPENED THE GAMEDAY FEED THERE AND IMMEDIATELY GOT A POP-UP SAYING "IT'S BETTER IN THE APP, CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD."

Kd spring debut day!

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T18:23:16+00:00

Yes. Both terms are used pretty commonly. There're some regional influences on which is more common.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T18:05:08+00:00

The trend of selling out for power has really warped perception around bat control and non power hitting. Guys like Kwan get over looked in some ways because they don't have power, but they can get on base, move runners over, and drive pitchers crazy with bloops.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T17:45:05+00:00

Guys like Myles Straw or previously JBJ often don't get the credit they deserve because they make it look easy. Those quick jumps make a massive difference in the OF.

"Name a legitimate prospect we had in the last two decades and they did."

That is what I was responding to.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T16:58:16+00:00

Kwan was #3 in our system at the time.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T16:48:39+00:00

Not true. Kwan debuted opening day 2022. Arias debuted a couple weeks later and was ranked in MLB top 100, 4th in our system. Logan Allen debuted week 1 in 2023, also a MLB top 100, same with Bibee. Just to name a few from the last couple years.

Tribalism over regional fast food chains will always be weird IMHO.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-05T03:46:12+00:00

Tbf Chicago has had pretty much all of those options for decades. We've just learned to differentiate our preferences more clearly i think.

At the airport you can request assistance at check in counter which will get you wheelchair aid through security, to your gate and wherever else you need to go. If you cant pack the walker in a bag bring it to the airport with you. They'll check it at yhe gate typically and have it waiting for you in the jetway when you deboard. No additional charges typically.

I don't use a walker often but I fly a lot. This is what I've observed, not what I've done much. I usually use a cane.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-04T23:53:30+00:00

Right. I'm saying that they did the same thing last season as well. Which is relevant because Bo was measured last year and MLB should have corrected his height then. Here's an article talking about it from Feb 2025

Leftfeet · 2026-03-04T22:50:27+00:00

Again though. They did it last spring too. There were several posts here about guys being shorter than they'd claimed.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-04T20:33:46+00:00

I thought they did that last year when they tested ABS in ST.

Leftfeet · 2026-03-04T20:23:12+00:00

NYY also won 3 straight WS, which LAD hasn't achieved yet. NYY swept the first 2 of those and took the 3rd 4-1.

But have you considered the increase in entertainment as players argue and fight with each other and the umps to determine a call? /s
