  1. 0-2 strikeout is a nice way to get out of your first jam. That's where a lot of pitchers either can't throw strikes or give up a dinger and get the bus back to AAA warming up.
  2. Two quality starts in a row. Nice to see Sproat pitching effectively.
  3. I'm good with giving Jones a look and Lockridge is adequate as a 4th/5th outfielder, but you can't leave Lara in AAA with how he's been looking and carry Matos, Jones, Perkins, and Lockridge as outfielders.
  4. I said I wish we'd light up Rogers since he throws like a girl, but perhaps girly hits was the answer all along.
  5. As a Niners fan, at least neither has actually hired a scientist to look into electrical substation conspiracy theories to dismiss it as a possible explanation for all the injuries.
  6. There wasn't a contingency plan for the entire bullpen being terrible. What do you even do? Just call up the starting depth and let them have at it? Hope the few guys having early success in Nashville's bullpen can handle this level? Cycle through other teams' DFAs hoping someone turns it around?
  7. Even the bad position players pitching don't allow 7 straight to reach with 6 of them scoring.
  8. I hate that we never light up Rogers when he's out there throwing like a girl.
  9. Jett is coming around. We might see him sooner with ABs like that from Rengifo.
  10. Wouldn't mind giving Jones a good look. Former first round pick who's been productive throughout his career when healthy. Plenty of time available given Matos is trending towards DFA fodder, Perkins has been unproductive, and Lockridge's ceiling is a 4th/5th outfielder.
  11. Hope no one took for granted our years of having a very good bullpen. This is what those teams with bad ones have had to put up with.
  12. On merit it would be Luis Lara, then Eddys Leonard or Greg Jones. The 40-man is not super flexible right now unless they're willing to DFA Black or Rodriguez or 60-day Rob Z. So it might actually end up being Cooper Pratt.
  13. He's improved his average by almost 50 points the last couple of days...from .029 to .071. Williams and Pratt are also off to bad starts, so we're in line to suffer for awhile longer. When it comes to the outfield, I'm ready to go with Luis Lara over Perkins any time now.
  14. This is my takeaway as well. The players expected to probably be bad are mostly on par with career norms. Rengifo was bad last year and hasn't reverted to career norms. Need returns from injuries and some progression of the pipeline.
  15. Pirates actually spending money. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/48428020/sources-konnor-griffin-agrees-9-year-140m-deal-pirates
  16. Lockridge going for a sombrero and they're really not going to pinch hit with a lefty here? edit: nm, Yeli announced
  17. It's weird reflecting on how putting up a 4 spot without a ball leaving the infield would be the darndest thing for most every other team, but it's not at all surprising for us.
  18. These 92 mph fastball variants with a changeup aren't going to play. I think I'd rather see Gasser, Crow, or Henderson.
  19. If Pratt or Jett can get things rolling there's still plenty of left side of infield playing time available.
  20. That's not a minimum IL stay type injury. Hope they can get Koenig right and throwing upper 90's again. Drohan our likely Wednesday starter or post-opener?
  21. Random thoughts I had: Lockridge does many things right. Not sure if his ceiling is enough to be an everyday player for a full season, but he's looking like an excellent fourth outfielder. Bauers has already gotten at least a couple of extra bases thanks to being one of the fastest first basemen in the league. Lots going on with Matos' swing. I don't know how he stays on the roster all year, but nor do I think we could get him outrighted to Nashville. Take it as it comes, I guess.
