I'm ready to lay down a marker for Mitch in tonight's game. Mackey has been alluding to issues with Keller since early spring. And he's having to avoid his most effective pitches because of strain on the arm/elbow (apparently). With pitchers going down left and right, it shouldn't be a surprise if K...

Keller is going to likely need it this year too. Reading the tea leaves, he’s been throwing some pitch this year that is easier on the arm and its not effective.

The chandler line isn’t good.

Barco is my pick to emerge this year.

I don’t think there’s any doubt that Skenes is ready. This is clearly just managing workload right now. I don’t see how he comes up in may at this rate.

I think madden has just poisoned the brains of all the sports talk/writers in this city. I think they all get madden’s schtick, but don’t understand the performance piece. So they just think they’re supposed to shitpost and farm engagement. There’s a fine line between performance and annoying, and y...

It’s almost like bibi is just doing this to **** Biden right now

Somewhere this team learned how to scout hitters. Their stock of young hitters is quite something.

Two things in the stats I didn’t want to see.

Cruz’s k rate and Hayes’ ground ball rate. The two areas that need to be down for these guys to be core lineup contributors.

Started seeing these chinks in the armor the other day and it could be a killer.

1. Diggs not washed 2. Contract is terrible, but Texans have tons of space 3. Bills aren't even in the expensive Allen years and having major cap issues. I think they are trying to clear out and do a roster refresh. They lost a lot of core guys that are in the back end of their careers, but still va...

I vaguely remember what Williams was like, but guessing he throws a lot of junk off-speed stuff. And I don't remember if he keeps that stuff in the zone or not. He'll probably try and drop a lot of off-speed stuff in the zone, if he gets ahead in the counts, I would think he'll get a lot of weak con...

Texans got Diggs for a 2025 2nd round pick.

Wish the Steelers would have been on that.

My work has an East Coast and West Coast VPN to choose from, and the VPN concentrators are either in Mississippi or Oregon. So those are my choices. But we're a large, fully self-managed government network, not sure how it would work in the private sector where the VPN services might be contracted ...

Work VPN question. I get an mlb.tv subscription through each year through tmobile. When I want to watch a game, I use my work VPN. I tried on Monday and it was blacked out. Guessing the VPN went through the DC area. When you use your work VPN, does it always go through the same location? Guess I am ...

Cutch alive. Roansy can be waived

It's okay to watch a team you like and be happy when they win Of course. The fun part is the guy talking playoffs two games into the season. C'mon man, tell me you don't find joy in reading that level of cognitive dissonance. It's delightful. In a post about the generational talent they were gifted...

I already had it happen in person yesterday. "OH they'll collapse just like last year" I'm like IDGAF I'm just trying to watch baseball and root for my home team I mean, I think we all have to manage expectations, but they really grinded out at bats all series. I think this is like the Andy Haines ...

Good news is priester dominating his aaa start. Hopefully this is the last of falter. He sucked ass all spring Between guys like Lauer, priester, German, wily Peralta, skenes, hopefully his time on the pirates earth is severely limited He still somehow managed to get through 4 innings. That’s obvio...

Holy ****, a pirate just laid down a perfect bunt

Lame

Chapman. 10mm well spent

Granted that Marlins lineup is soft, but:

Boys I gotta say this rotation is thin now but if today is any indication, Skenes-Keller-Jones in a couple months might be electric

Perez also going to be solid at pnc park
