We are already seeing pretty regular-season-esque lineups on the reg. Isn’t this a bit early in Spring to be at that stage?

I hope "Hebrew LF" is not part of "regular-season-esque lineups".

That said, I hope he remembers which hand to put the glove on.

This lineup also has Matos in RF and Craw at DH. That is the “esque” portion of my statement. I mean that we don’t see Aurbach and Bailey and Ramos and Proctor and (etc) in the lineup. This lineup is pretty close to a regular season lineup.

I think spring training is a bit condensed, partly because of the WBC and partly because the regular season is supposed to start a bit earlier than normal. However, I cannot get the Giants or MLB websites to open right now so I'm not sure.

I realize that this is spring training but if he doesn't want to bother to actually field above little league level, I don't get why he'd be out there even at this time of the year. Someone needs to slap Kapler's hand every time he tries to pencil Pederson to any spot but DH.

Edit: I'm pretty sure that this is a micro-aggression for us lunatic fringe fans.

whelp, we were due for a good moundshattery.

Wood: 2.2IP 3H 3BB 3K 1HR 4ER....55 pitches. Very little command.

A mound shat from our projected #6 starter.

Of all the guys we dont want to see shat, he is the best option.

And our #7 guy as well:

Junis: 2.1IP 3H 1BB 3K HR 4ER ....40 pitches.

only bright spot today: Matos hit his first bomb.

Matos should be getting his first cuppo-talk at some point this season (but if he doesn’t, that is fine). Anything positive from him in this spring is total gravy, imho.

Wood and Junis having rough outings is not anything I will lose any sleep over. In fact, Wood struggling may be a good thing, as it might convince him that he is no longer a starter. He has demonstrated a hesitancy Togo to the bully that is a bit blind to his actual abilities.

Fair point.

I'm good with Webb/Cobb/Manaea/Strip/Disco to start the year.

I am not a huge Disco fan (now THAT statement has some depth…), but I absolutely LOVE him as a #5.
