Yeah, I don't think AT&T Sportsnets are on any streaming service yet. But it is now available for subscribers to DTV and Uverse through an app.

I know y’all noticed what Dallas said. No one has posted anything about it though.

DK has been emitting an essence of douche lately and I wish he'd keep his mouth shut. Lotta big talk for a guy who can't keep himself off the disabled list.

There was a separate thread about what DK said


As I posted in there, and like Hoohoo just said, the douche comments are becoming too common and while I like the confidence, I’d rather not invite a media shitstorm. I could think of worse things for him to say but in a perfect world I wish he’d just keep it to himself/in the locker room

DK with a nice showing today. Retired 11 in a row before Harper got a single on the 4th.

I'm not sure anyone has noticed but Hector Rondon has only pitched .2 innings this spring and is dealing with some sort of "fatigue"

Just not sure how Tucker thinks he's gonna make this squad by getting put out 60% of the time.

No wonder they call him Ted

He’s been their best hitter in spring training by basically any measure

Fisher's speed come playoff time, but the only thing that will keep Tucker down will be Luhnow not wanting to start his clock

Fisher doing his best to speed up young Tuck's arrival

Such a team player he is

Has K'd looking twice w runners on seeing a total of 6 pitches

Quite the feat

It’s early but Tucker appears to be the real deal. This team is loaded, another up and coming star is icing.

May or may not be true. If you're looking at MLB gameday, they don't do pitch by pitch tracking in the spring. A strikeout will show up as 3 pitches and a walk as 4 pitches.

Fisher isn’t the future, but hopefully he can hold his own long enough for another team to want him.

And if nothing else, his speed would likely put him on the playoff roster, but as you said, would be nice to get something more in return

But even if not 6 pitches, ALL looking

Hardly showing the plate discipline that gave him an early shot last year

I know I’ve read that it’s been tried before, and I guess you’d need the guy to be able to play defense...but if fisher is only gonna be on a playoff roster for his speed....why aren’t we drafting someone like Trindon Holiday in the 30th round and groom him to be a base running god

Yeah yeah I know they’d need Baseball knowledge and instincts but y’all got my point

Either way, a healthy Jake last year means no Fisher on playoff squad
