I can't wrap my head around Brown and Larson both on the bench for Frey and Pearson. I like both Frey and Pearson, but what does Larson have to do to stay in the lineup? You can't have a better game than he did on Sunday.


One game doesn’t win you a job. Larson will continue to get

If I remember right minimum wage was either 5.15 or 5.25 an hour when I got my first summer job hoeing cotton at 12 years old. So that.

I used to flexible as hell. Could easily do the splits in my early 20s. I’ve got a little rotund in my mid 30s. Work a physical job but I don’t work out and never stretch. Wife dared me to touch my toes last week. I can still stand flat footed, lock my knees and put both palms on the floor. I may ha

Huh? We have 12 that are over 6'3". Also, Paul's regime recuited tons of bigger guys. Ya'll just get stuck remembering some of the guys who played in a 3 year stretch. His staff recruited travinski, jared jones, matt clark, crews, beloso, koeneman, and deichmann among others

There have been debates about which effort is faster to the bag, but it seems the feet-first slide is inherently safer. And think of all the money they could save on oven mittens.



The head first slide is both quicker to the bag and allows for more nuance on the slide.

But does that give the runner an advantage when stealing a base?



Not really. I would argue that it hinders the runner. A lot harder to slide away from the bag and grab it while going past with a mitt.

I don't think Ware pitched last weekend either.



I think I heard that both Eyanson and Ware had strep last week. Could be wrong though. I know it was one of them. But neither of them pitched the last weekend of scrimmages.

Don't understand why a pitcher pitches from the stretch when he doesn't have to.



Shores didn’t pitch from the stretch though?

I think his first inning “struggles” are being over stated by the fanbase.

He gave up two weakly hit seeing eye singles and a lollipop line drive to the second baseman. They did not hit him hard in the first inning. He just had some bad luck.

The second base hit should’ve been fielded by Jon
45Ks and only two walks over three games.


Yea I can live with that

Because they don’t care. Their buddy called him out so goddamn it he’s going to be out. Evidence be damned.

I’m liking what I’m seeing from shores. I don’t think it’s going to take long for him to knock the rest of the rust off.

A little surprised Priester isn’t getting a start today. Thought we would see all 3 catchers get a start this weekend.

I don’t understand why y’all think Wade would come back here. He’s going to get much better offers than LSU.
