How long have you been sitting on that one? Obscure much??


LOL

Interesting that Duggar gets bumped from center in favor of Doobie. I wonder if that is more of a compliment to Duggar that he plays left at an elite level and Doobs does not, or if Doobs is, in fact, a better CFer at this point.

 

[calsnowskier]

Come on, kid. Tighten that shit up

Estrada not on this team for his glove work.

Just found it. I did a gif search for "Slater", saw that and went with it.

Kapler just flexing his "versatile" roster, maybe?

Why does this game remind me so much of last year's Opening Day game?
Come on Doval!

Obviously.

I know it is Opening Day, but how long a leash will Doval get in the closer's role?

 

[calsnowskier]

Doval looking like early 2021 Doval. Not late 2021 Doval…

Okay, so this Joey Bart guy isn't bad.

Shortish, I think. He is very young and has a history of losing confidence in his pitches and tanking for a spell.

according to gameday ... Doval is throwing almost all sliders. Can't get the cutter even close to the plate. Sliders about 85-88 and they have it timed ..

RIP to my Logan Webb fantasy win.

This game is the exact reason why pitchers cant win 300 anymore. They can’t stay in the game long enough to own their own wins.

His FB was all over the place. He couldn’t get a strike out of it. The slider, at least, was getting called a strike.

May it be remembered well.

At least he was able to do the thing that got him on the roster.
