Kouzmanoff with a nice rbi single.

He's chocked full of the veteranny grittiness that Wash loves.

 

[Broseidon]

First pitch he was sitting on it and bye bye. He ripped it.

He looks like a completely different player when he bats from the left side.

Profar was leading the team in RBI's before the slam.

I think it's on an hour delay so you'll have to stay away from the board like I did today.

He put a nice swing on it for sure

Glad to see Feliz have a clean inning today, hope to see him increase his velo as ST continues

Heard on Norm's show this morning Harrison threw to batting practice, looked pretty good, felt fine afterwards and will pitch in a B game against KC next week; think on Tues.

Help me out please. How do you get the slogan "showing you respect" to show up?

I hope it's not too dumb, but I can't get mine posted for squat.

FRIDAY: Saunders can earn up to $3.65MM if he makes the club and hits all of the incentives in his contract, according to the Associated Press. Just $250K of Saunders' $500K base salary is guaranteed.
If Saunders makes the roster, his salary will jump to $1.5MM, as previously reported by Heyman. He also receives a $500K bonus for 90 days on the active roster. Saunders will receive an additional $150K for reaching each of 130, 140, 150, 160, 170 and 180 innings. He'll earn $250K for reaching each of 190, 200 and 210 innings.

That's a seriously incentive laden contract, I like, he sucks the investment is minimal and if he reaches 3.65 million that means he probably did a decent job (by keeping others out of his spot) and stayed healthy

That's the way it should be. Earn your pay. Like the incentive to perform.

Yeah and with all the options we have now, and with Holland coming back (hopefully), he's going to have to pitch really well t stay in the rotation. If he can't get anyone out then we have the options to replace him. I know he gets a lot of ground balls, and his ERA should have been lower last year but he's never had an FiP under 4. I don't see him working out well at RBiA. I'm actually hoping he doesn't make the rotation.

don't look now, but Kirkman looked solid according to the gamecast
