Surprised the brewers had to throw in a lottery ticket to get Stallings. Numbers are not impressive so far. They must see something they can correct. At least they got something for Vieira. He has too much potential to let go for free.
I've been noticing very slow loading times this past week. frequent gateway 504 timeouts. Is it just me or have others been experiencing this. I was on travel so I thought that may be it, but I'm getting back in Milwaukee now.
A couple eligibility questions. May as well get these out there right away: Is Chourio, Ortiz, Hall not eligible, since they are not listed anymore? What about Bryan Hudson? A bit old but technically a rookie still. Tobias Myers is still eligible?
Do we know what is up with Alexander Vallecillo, Aldrin Gonzalez, and Wande Torres? I expected these three to be in Carolina or Arizona by now. I don't see them on any roster yet.
I rewatched Siri's HR and it was clear Freddy was upset with him for slow-walking the HR. Its highly likely Freddy threw intentionally at him. Still not sure he gets ejected without a warning.
I'd be fine with sending Uribe down. Just cant accept that behavior. Very immature and it will hurt the team. He can serve his suspension the next time he gets called up.
Owen Miller is hitting well at AAA. Not even sure Monasterio would be the first to return if we need another infielder. The last two years Miller has been really good in the Spring. Terrible after that. May as well take advantage of his typical hot start if they need someone.
Two lefties and switch hitter against Burnes. Interesting approach. Burnes had reverse splits last year but not that big of a difference.
It would be nice to see Turang get a shot in leadoff at some point.
Good job by Jomboy. Really interesting series of videos. I love the "Mets dont try" line. I have to believe the Mets have decided its not worth risking injury trying to break up the double-play. But they are giving up outs by doing this.
