[quote]Spain and Morocco are sadly off the travel list for the foreseeable future.[/quote]
No, you should definitely go to Spain. My wife and I went this past September, and we had the time of our lives! The food, culture, history, architecture, museums, and natural beauty of the land, were all...

And by comparison, I got to watch Rhett Lowder pitch two nights ago. Coming in to the game, Lowder was 0-4 with an ERA over 6 (in AA ball).
Lowder got touched up for 5 or 6 runs within the first few ...

[quote]You’re right. I knew one of them had that grip. IIRC Roy Corcoran threw his change with that same V grip. That’s what his Juco coach told me at least.[/quote]
Actually, this Vulcan grip is what Paul Skenes uses on his changeup. Pretty cool, since it's not widely used....

[quote]Vulcan slider.[/quote]
Actually, the Vulcan changeup is what their first pitcher, Jeremy Young, was throwing. He kept our guys off all game. I’m glad their coach, Mark Marques, made the pitching change when he did. We had no answer for Young, but we got to Wayne enough to get the W....

[quote]wasn't Cresse slumping pretty badly for the series? redemption!![/quote]\
Yeah, and their pitcher, last named Wayne, was throwing this pretty wicked slider. It had quite the tail on it. And Cresse would swing and miss at it. He struck out on 3 of these sliders in a row by swinging and...

Good! I go to Pensacola Blue Wahoos games (AA affiliate of Miami), and the Montgomery Biscuits (the AA team that Morgan would move up to), is in the same division! My son and I are anxiously awaiting ...

I actually got to watch him pitch this past Friday night (he was pitching for the Tenn. Smokies... the Cub's affiliate) when they played in Pensacola.
He was LETHAL! He was hitting 99 and 100 on his fastball, and throwin...
re: Wes Johnson after LSU's game today..
Posted by DocRock on 5/22/24 at 1:52 pm
Yeah, I guess his answer for today's game would be something along the lines of:
"Yeah, Kentucky beat themselves. I mean, if they didn't give up 4 HRs, two of which were Grand Slams... and if they would have at least scored some freaking runs... they would have won."
Frick him.

I didn’t realize that he got promoted to AA. We live in the area, and I was already planning on taking my kids to the opening game this Friday. Now I’m even that much more pumped to be seeing a Tiger play!
Awesome man...

re: Is It Too Early to Get Unreasonably Excited Over Steven "Monster" Milam?
Posted by DocRock on 3/6/24 at 4:47 pm
No, I don't think its too early to get excited about him. The scouts were pretty big on him coming out of HS. He shows plate discipline beyond his years. Yes, every year it seems we have a freshman or two doing well early, only to struggle against SEC pitching. I don't think that will necessari...
