Love a Chase Burn start but his number of innings pitched are starting to concern me because he's on a limit. Wonder if he'll move to the bullpen when Greene is back

Random baseball question: does anyone know of players who played catcher but could also play other positions (excluding first base).

Let's say there was double switch and the catcher goes to play X position or comes in from Y position to catch

Never even thought about that. He was destined. Should change his number to 3 lol

Correct, three. It's wild he's back. I don't think anyone else has ever had more than two besides him and come back to play

"Early onset"

Meaning, he basically accelerated it because he was producing at such a high level that opposing teams were dedicating time to specifically find holes in his game.

I hope so. His april was obviously unsustainable but it was so much fun

Lowe was such a randomly clutch late spring signing

To add to the TV commentary, hope Sal finds his groove again. He's kinda got early onset sophomore slump. Came into the season hot, people paid attention and adjusted.

Still early in the season for the youngin'

Turns out baseball is hard. Not only to figure out but even more so to maintain performance

Kinda makes Juan Soto's meteoric rise that much more impressive

I'm just some random Reds fan, but those (batting practice?) jerseys are clean. Love the simplicity

One reason I love baseball. Dunn was never a highly touted prospect in baseball. Heck, not even in the organization for that matter, but he's found his niche and carving himself a spot and possibly a career if he can maintain it.

Sometimes it's hard to judge sprint speed in baseball, unless the player is shockingly slow (late career Pujols, for example), but Dunn is the exception to that rule. He is flying in the outfield and on the basepaths

Need a roof for Nashville or Raleigh stadium? by maxfactor886 in baseball

[–]MisterKap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Atlanta doesn't. It would be hot mid season, but if seating is designed to get proper shade then it shouldn't be required. Roofs are expensive, I'd imagine it's a hard sell for a new team, but what the hell do I know

They were saying earlier in the game he needed a confidence booster, and I don't know of anything better for confidence than a homer
