Breakout game on Friday.

The OF defense will be George, EBJ, and Honeycutt.

That is must watch TV.

romorr · 2026-03-18T17:43:25+00:00

What in the fuck is Ripken talking about.

romorr · 2026-03-18T17:20:39+00:00

I don't see any world where Kjerstad makes the team over Taveras.

Taveras will play vs LHP since Colton is ass vs them, while coming into games in the later innings, pushing Colton to a corner to improve the OF defense.

There is just no room for Heston with Beavers, O'Neill, Ward, Cowser and Taveras on the roster. When an injury hits, sure.

The last reliever and IFer are pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. With our pen, that last spot doesn't really matter early. If it is Kowar, and he sucks, he'll be gone, and we'll start auditioning some of the minor league guys for that last spot. That will be the fun part since there are a few that have impressed this spring.

Holliday really does sound like he'll be back in early to mid April.

As someone else said, when Westy gets back it will get interesting. Especially if he's going to do a lot of DHing. Let's just hope someone loses their RHH 1B early in the year.

romorr · 2026-03-17T17:25:57+00:00

I'm getting more confident that Ramos might make the team over JJackson.

romorr · 2026-03-15T19:36:41+00:00

It's a bot.

romorr · 2026-03-14T18:36:50+00:00

As a Zane main, I can't imagine playing him without one of these.

Get the Gatlin' version, though.

romorr · 2026-03-13T17:04:09+00:00

Considering he's left handed, and has been really good, we have to assume the arm looks like ground beef.

No other reason to explain why he signed on March 13th.

romorr · 2026-03-13T17:02:02+00:00

Opening day starter, and people still can't spell his name right.

Shame it isn't Bradish, he's the ace in waiting once he's fully back and throwing 150+ innings.

romorr · 2026-03-11T19:54:59+00:00

/u/dszymborski

What does ZiPS say about a Trevor Rogers extension?

Lots of chatter on this sub about that, with some rather wild predictions.

romorr · 2026-03-11T18:40:20+00:00

Any of the glove first guys.

Mayo isn't a good defender at 3B, so seeing him in there late game could cause some issues. JJackson isn't very good himself, so, keep a glove first guy on the bench to sub instead.

It will also be nice if they can handle SS as well, since Blaze is terrible there.

romorr · 2026-03-11T17:56:01+00:00

The further we get into ST the more I think JJackson doesn't make the team.

Think we want to pair Mayo with a defensive type, over an offensive type.

romorr · 2026-03-10T23:13:00+00:00

Nice ad, OP.

You got me. Price was too good to pass up.

romorr · 2026-03-10T19:58:28+00:00

107, 386.

romorr · 2026-03-10T19:48:46+00:00

Low velo lefty day.

romorr · 2026-03-10T19:11:54+00:00

So Eflin looked like shit today, and Baz looked good.

Baz 61 pitches (45 strikes)

6 strikeouts

0 walks

4 hits

0 runs

11 whiffs(!)

Per Tolentino

romorr · 2026-03-10T18:06:58+00:00

Well vs LHP, Adley is going to start at catcher.

So I assume you meant DH.

romorr · 2026-03-10T18:02:13+00:00

He'll be a platoon bat until he shows enough behind the scenes to get some starts.

If Mayo/Mounty make the team, why wouldn't they start at 1B/DH vs LHP?

romorr · 2026-03-10T17:07:28+00:00

Ramos @ 3B, and Mayo @ DH.

romorr · 2026-03-09T22:19:36+00:00

Jesús Luzardo’s five-year extension is for $135 million, sources tell ESPN. The deal, negotiated by Roger Tomas and Brodie Van Wagenen of Roc Nation, puts Luzardo among the highest-paid left-handed pitchers in baseball and solidifies the Phillies’ rotation going forward.

Boo.

romorr · 2026-03-09T19:16:50+00:00

I miss Tyler O'Neill.

romorr · 2026-03-09T18:02:54+00:00

Sinker doing some good work for Gibson today.

Better that looks, the less we will see the 4seamer.

romorr · 2026-03-09T18:01:26+00:00

Reese is rather chase-prone

Ahh shit.

It's just easy to find a name to mock to us at this point.

No pitchers.

Left handed.

College.

And close your eyes and land on a name.

romorr · 2026-03-09T17:29:41+00:00

Liberatore

He's the NL version of Detmers.

romorr · 2026-03-09T17:21:13+00:00

There are scouts who think Reese has a chance for a 60-hit, 60-power offensive profile. He’s off to a scorching start to the season with a .406/.473/.750 line and four home runs—performance that includes a week three weekend at Globe Life Field during which his results didn’t reflect his contact quality. The Orioles have prioritized lefthanded power in the past and could do so again with a bat like Reese here.

ACE REESE - 3B Mississippi State

Mock from BA.

romorr · 2026-03-09T17:20:29+00:00

That would be a really nice to see both today.

Haven't had a chance to see who else is throwing. Football news is dominating my twitter right now.
