I like the line up. How else do you suggest we determine who makes the team. Odor needs the chance to rebound. If he does/does not,then ST did it's job. Have to play them to know.

I was just taking a shot at Odor don’t mind me.

I really hope Odor is given a short leash this year with profar waiting in the wings, but I’ve lost some confidence and trust in this organizations ability to make sound decisions of late.

Sadzeck didn't have a good game today

You should get an award for watching spring training ( if you do)

Ugly baseball.

Bad ballparks.

Outcome doesn’t matter.


Would be hard for me to sit through.

Bush had two scoreless innings to start the game. Had a pretty good curveball.

I bet when the regular season starts he will be swing happy.

He’s gotta take walks in order for pitchers to adjust their approach

Pitchers know if they get 3 balls against Odor, they can throw crappy pitches until he strikes himself out from being over anxious.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. He knows he is being watched and what he needs to do if he wants to stay on top. Profar will be pushing him.
