The Vanderbilt boys - Gray and Price - have bellied up when it counted most for 2014.

Of course, I'm not putting this one in the win column just yet. But Sonny has not started well.

That's what he told me last night

Yeah I know. I got a kick outta it then, and then again today.

Ya know, sometimes his post are like a largemouth bass waiting in the weeds to pounce on unsuspecting prey. :suds:

Hope I didn't jinx us with that wise crack about the Vanderbilt boys.

Nick needs to stop with that type of garbage. Have a team struggling on offense and you walk 2 guys and allow 1 hit to lead to 2 runs. Need to make them earn their way on.

After watching Derek the last two weeks it irritates me to see this crap. Forgot what a real pitcher looked like.

Good one from TAG on the walk to Martin....."That pitch was in the Choo zone."

Very good Mr Tom.

If Smolinski keeps hitting like this he could find himself in the 2 spot. Yeah I know, highly unlikely. They way he came up and immediately started hitting along with his stocky build kind of reminds me of Calhoun. Even though Smo is RH. Calhoun has helped that line up a ton being at the top.

I thought the observation on TAG & Buzz's part about the calls Choo has gotten this year pretty revealing.

They said Choo has had 30-40 pitches "well outside the SZ" which have been called. Most of them on the outside part of the plate.

Wonder why that is?

Telis went to the Manny Sanguillen school of hitting I think.

Manny had 223 walks in 13 years and he never saw a pitch he couldn't swing at.

Hope it turns out as well for Telis as it did for Manny.
