MLB.tv now includes minor league games!

Position players are easy to follow. Pitchers not so much. Anybody that has knowledge of one of our boys scheduled for the mound please give us a heads up here.

Cheese has been assigned to the Vancouver Canadians, high A

Hey, @td23 how are you doing?

 

[ColinS]

Nick Senzel has now been screwed twice by the Reds, the first time with Nick's service time between AAA and the Major's and now with his injury!!

I hope that Nick finds a good place to continue his career in the Majors.

GBO

Hasn't produced or stayed healthy. I'm sure he has made plenty of money despite that.

Damn I am SO excited to see Ben Joyce play in the Big Leagues. Disappointed my Red Sox didn’t draft him when we need bullpen help in the worst way.

As good as we all perceive our staff to be, this surprises me:
Q. How much do you use analytics?
A. "That's something I've learned a lot more about in professional baseball. We didn't use those much at Tennessee. But I've learned a lot more about it and I think it's going to help me a lot, especially just how to attack hitters with a new slider.”

I wouldn’t take that as a hit on our staff. MLB is a whole new level of analytics.

A lot more time and paid staff members. The manager of the Yankees isn’t recruiting his own players at high schools around the country or placing calls to 8th graders in the evening. Just not enough time to go that deep with it in college

Ben Joyce pitched 1 inning in a spring training game today. 2 SO 0 H.
