  1. Need this series… so need this inning (or the next) with Spaghetti tomorrow
  2. Impressed we’re halfway through and not one post about you-know-who behind home plate
  3. 2 games and already playing that wall better than Chas or Yordan
  4. You’re too late. UTPhil already called 29-0 on the last page. But yeah, there were some other really good gems on the first couple of pages of this thread from what I remember but that I’ll look back on the last week of the regular season like I usually do
  5. Jon Singleton is tied for the 16th hardest hit baseball in MLB so far this year (and hardest hit ball by an Astro). (114.4 mph)
  6. Tomorrow’s lineup is going to look a lot like Sugarland with Arrighetti on the mound, Singleton at first and Loperfido probably in LF. (or maybe Yordan gets the start in LF to get both Diaz and Caratini in the lineup to see if the last swing last night can keep rolling).
  7. Yep. think he’s a guesser? Sits on one pitch and if he doesn’t see it, he freezes?
  8. May schedule talk: not to sound too hyperbolic about a stretch of games the first week in May, but the stretch between now and next Thursday is pretty important. 2 more with the Guardians 3 with Seattle 3 at Yankees Winning each of those series means a 5-3 start to the month and 7 below .500. Then the schedule lightens up a bit with Detroit, before returning home for our longest homestand of the year with Oakland, Milwaukee, and LA Angels. Finish the month with 7 games at Oakland and Seattle (before opening a series on 5/31 back at home against Minnesota). Over the past few years, Seattle feels like the tortoise in the tortoise and the hare —slowly but consistently getting better—and I think we’re going to have some knock down, drag outs with them all year. Would be huge to jump out to 4-3 or 5-2 on them this month. But overall, the best records in the AL in April were 19-10. With our schedule in May, pitching staff coming back together, rotten luck we’ve endured for most of April, and shedding Abreu and whatever happened to him there is no reason in my mind that we can’t replicate that and flip our 4/30 10-19 record to match that 19-10 and be back to .500 by June 1 CLE 1-1 SEA 4-3 NYY 2-1 DET 2-1 OAK 5-2 MIL 1-2 LAA 3-0 MIN 1-0 = 19-10 3 game win streak kool-aid tastes so good.
  9. don’t look now but 0.5 back of the Angels. And they don’t have trout!
  10. At least my internet crapped out right before that Kwan triple to start that inning. screen literally froze with the ball leaving his hand so didn’t have to see any of that
  11. He left Brown in one batter too long. Bringing in Montero in the 6th is not the problem
