LOL!! Don't do that with my quote. I don't want to be targeted on FB.
-
I already knew it, but it concerned me that he missed 3 times so badly that he gave up dingers. He is what he is, and that is at best a back of the rotation guy. He is not a #2 as some hope.
-
His stuff is like Ruby De La Rosa. Straight fastball that needs good secondary stuff to be successful. So far, his results are similarly inconsistent.
-
What I take from it is that his fastball is very straight and that when he misses with it, it gets mashed.
-
I have come to despise everyone in the process -- the Dems, Republicans and the Press (including the mainstream press and MSNBC and Fox). Edit: And at risk of sounding like a Bernie supporter, I hate the Big Corporations and Banks. In my view, they all have the same goal -- keep us in our place and take our money.
-
LOL! It would need to be a really big bag.
-
So, he is right? LOL!! Let's keep politics off the board. Especially, in a crazy year like this.
-
Elias is optioned to Pawtucket so Barnes and Ramirez make the roster.
-
Maybe he can be packaged with Panda and a pile of cash for a pitcher.
-
No one knew about this guy when he signed. He was a mystery commodity. Ben bought the hype at an extremely high price without knowing what he was getting, and it looks like he got burned.
-
It can't be worse than the last 2 seasons --can it?
-
I am optimistic that he will make a run at the Cy Young Award.
-
He still was not executing even if the plan was just to throw fastballs or curves or whatevever. He was apparently getting too much of the plate with those pitches. Also, in your effort to make excuses, you are neglecting to realize the stage of Spring Training. We are at the end of camp. Pitchers are not still working on one pitch or another. They are trying to stretch out and get a feel for all of their pitches.
-
But he clogged up the major league roster with many huge useless contracts blocking the prospects.
-
I doubt that we will get a solid dependable starter like Shields for a bag of Panda.
-
Worry about politics in your own country.
-
We could have a rotation with Scherzer and Price.
-
Quite a record of wasted payroll.
-
LOL!! It wasn't Ben's $ either, and that is why he resigned (i.e. got fired).
-
lol!!
-
After one of Bard's bad Spring Training starts, when Bobby V was asked for a comment he said that "[bard] had that backing up third base thing down pretty good." LOL!!
-
It is never the intent of any outing in Spring Training to give up a bunch of Home Runs. Whatever Kelly was working on, he wasn't executing if opposing hitters took him deep 3 times. At this juncture of Spring Training, the intent is for the starting pitchers to go 5 or 6 innings. Kelly had trouble getting through 4.

Then sell the tickets for a reasonable price. -
Maybe Castillo will get traded. Goodness, Ben threw away $72 million on Castillo, $88 million on Pablo (very cheap by the pound), $82 million on Porcello (a #4/5 starter) and $90 Ramirez (a DH in Waiting). That is a lot of wasted dough!
-
Here's a riddle: What do you call a starting pitcher that has one bad inning per outing giving up 4-5 runs? A bad pitcher. Stuff means nothing if you can't execute.
