SEASON OPENING SERIES CARDS/DODGERS

Sincerely ... Lance Lynn may have a great year... it'll be 90% spite and 10% StL IMOS Pizza ...

 

Happy Opening Day, y'all... try to not kill the opposing fans while overpaying for everything ...

Sincerely,

Bryan Stow

 

Of course they stop Betts at third he would have scored but no have to play it “safe”. Still not good base running just hate wasting outs …. Luckily Freeman comes through…..

 

Old bastard here with an old bastard take...

Distractions can hurt a team. In the social media age, it can be especially problematic.

But I recommend everyone read Bouton's Ball Four & Sparky Lyle's The Bronx Zoo. No team ever had as many distractions as those Yankee teams, and NY media were the original monsters of scandal. Even in Seattle with the Pilots, the team had guys doing everything BUT playing baseball. They were popping greenies & chasing skirts.

Fact iis ... if the 76 & 77 Yank teams can overcome distractions, so can this team. The problem is those teams had men like Billy Martin, Bob Lemon, and the Reds had Sparky Anderson while the Dodgers had Tommy. A master manager can deflect distractions. Scarecrow can't do that.

In the end, this team has a failure at the helm. That'll be their undoing in my estimation. I hope I'm wrong.

 

Holy hell ... Glasnow is 6'8"?! What a beast. Didn't know he was that tall.

 

Size is overrated.

The new huh? won't add to this. Because big brother is watching.

 

Nice start. Well done.
Too bad about Paul GoldSMITH ( even miss Vinny's mistakes), we coulda had a no hitter. Or been a contenda.
Betts made an error, so obviously he sucks.
Glad for Outman...it was a bit concerning how he looked at the plate.
Nice outing from Glasnow, and a solid 3 from Yarbie.
Oh, and it comes as no surprise that Dave is now the new Tommy. I knew it all along...
In Bizarro Universe, maybe.

 

racist



Yeah, I hope the Betts experiment doesn't implode. I could see Davey not wanting to concede that it was a bad move and stubbornly keeping him there all year. That's two straight games with an error (almost had two in one inning on Tuesday). He seems to struggle a bit with the backhand. Of course, as athletic as he is, it might suddenly click for him and he'll look like he's played short his whole career. Just it was nice when we had two plus plus gloves and arms in the outfield with Betts and Belli, and now our OFers are good but I wouldn't say great.


and racist

stop pretending you're better than anyone else ffs the privilege is showing early

 

Nice results. On to tomorrow. I am interested in seeing how Miller does. A lot of pressure on him as he is penciled in to be a high level starter….
I would say how long Betts is a short stop depends on Lux. And in a lessor degree Heyward If either one of them have trouble hitting over say 220…. Especially Lux who isn’t a plus defender then there is no reason to play Rojas over Lux. Or even Heyward…. If the bottom half of the line up is not hitting rhen you might as well ah e the best defense you can

 

Should've kept Seager

 

let me guess, because he's white
