Ball game!

Uribe is a little too worked up I think

2 more outs and let's get the hell out of here.

I had him on ignore for a while and turned it off so I was only ignoring the loser Cubs fan who comes here sometimes. But I don't come here to read posts where people are trying to litigate conversations they had a week ago. It's boring.

Bye.

Like five different people have questioned him in the 3 minutes.

If Mitchell is going to strike out at the rate he strikes out he damn well needs to catch balls that hit him in the glove.

Don't believe it will last but it's fun to see him have some success.

I'm not worried about him either (nor did I pay much attention to what he or anyone else did in the WBC outside of the injuries and lost time that resulted for Chourio, etc.). But his power is playing at High A and I question whether he'd have more opportunity for development this year playing at AA against more advanced pitching. If they want him to get his k rate down before he moves up I certainly see that as an issue but I suspect that will be an issue for him throughout his career. The more ABs against more advanced pitchers the better imo.

Nope. I was just doing math in my head based on a 15 second glance at his stats and accidentally used AB instead of PA (and then rounded liberally anyway). Thanks!

True, and Adamczewski's strikeout rate of about 25% is a lot prettier than Fischer's 37%, which is probably why Fischer started the year at High A and hasn't moved up yet.

Turang's home runs are always aesthetically pleasing. Sounds weird I know but even when they just get out they're majestic moon balls. I've got no objection to a Brewers hitting them out just over the wall down the lines, but his big booming home runs are the Platonic ideal of home runs.

Woohoo! Turang!

Honestly think he was upset because the hitter got into the box so early (which Cabellero is very fastidious about not doing until the literal last second), which allowed Uribe to stand there on the rubber for 10 seconds, freezing Cabellero. BTW, hat tip to the TV broadcast. Switching to the camera behind 1B so we could see both Cabellero and Uribe was pretty entertaining and an excellent way to cover the game situation.
