    I wouldn't mind going to the game tomorrow, but I don't like the pitching matchup

    Just checking out Will Smith's numbers

    Looks like he has a spike in Ks for each promotion, but it normalizes down to his typical 20% after an adjustment period. Gets on base and plenty of XBH.

    2019 Stats (AAA)
    .290/.404/.551/8 HR/133 wRC+
    21.1 K%
    15.1 BB %
    .333 BABIP

    As for defense...

    ...via Dodger Blue.com

    This past February, Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman touted Smith as already being capable of not only catching in Majors but winning a Gold Glove. Friedman believed the bulk of his development needed to come at the plate.

    It would be pretty cool if Verdugo, Lux, and Smith are able to steal starting roles this season, joining a still young group including Buehler, Urias, Bellinger, and DairyFreeger.

    Very unlikely, but it would be cool. Rooting for them over Pollock, Kike the 'every day' 2B who faces RHP, and Barnes.

    If Smith, according to the Nerds, is capable of competing for a Gold Glove immediately, could he just take over the job? The ceiling doesn't seem high offensively for Barnes anyway, so if the offensive dip is negligible....

    Or would the Dodgers want Smith to continue developing his offensive game in AAA instead of being mediocre or struggling at the MLB level? Probably want him to get 2-300 ABS down there.

    Sadly, I'll take Taylor over Kike against RHP. About as good of a lineup as we can field.

    I wonder if the Rangers would take Kershaw as a new stadium opening novelty gift

    Bases loaded for Dairy Freeger.
    ;(
    The SportsNet LA propaganda machine keeps telling me Seager is heating up, but every time I look at that stat line, I want to vomit. Every damn game. "Seager starting to get his feel"
    Every game, he looks like he can barely hold the bat up, to me.

    Remember when Seager was a threat at the plate? Me neither. What a joke.

    I refuse to believe Corey's struggles are due to rust from missing time. It is a chronic physical condition and gross miscalculation by whoever advises his training.

    I enjoy that this team seems to have pretty average or above average speed. Some guys aren’t fast but theyre average and we don’t have guys like Adrian/Yaz that are running through mud

    That looked like a terrible call on Muncy's AB.
