Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Twinkies notch an opening day victory!!! ETA: I do miss working right next to the stadium. You could go on the rooftop lookout and sort of see the game with binoculars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxom 1974 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Can we all agree that Bryce Harper would have looked good on pretty much any of our teams...but he just looks weird in a Phillies jersey...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMC Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Yes. Unless you're a Philly fan I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argonath Diver Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I thought for years that Goldschmidt would be a fantastic Cardinal, but never expected it to happen. Tonight he has two bombs, an absolute rocket that almost beheaded Travis Shaw, and best of all has seen 31 - THIRTY ONE! - pitches through four ABs. What a guy. @Triskele are you not entertained?! I am. Also, my decade of sports hate for Ryan Braun continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you gave it away, for nothing. And now, it's totally happening. So, thank you. Plus, obligatory: A man in my position cannot be made to look ridiculous!

kairparavel Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Got up to use the loo and discovered the Doyers are still at it. Also, it's 3:44am. Also, Ryu was just up to bat in the bottom of the 12th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch-MaesterPhilip Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 And just like that the Yankees are back to being shit against the Orioles. All is right with the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their main problem today was any time they hit the ball hard it was on the ground. I don't anticipate that being a long-term problem. I like the fact they've scored 10 runs in 17 innings and it doesn't feel at all like the offense has broke out. They also have a .425 OBP and 4.87 pitches per plate appearance through the first two games, both of which would be ridiculously awesome for a player let alone a team. Yeah it's the Orioles, but thus far I'm quite excited about this offense. And Paxton pitched really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andujar needs to learn how to take pitches. He came up in a big spot and he did nothing with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah his double play with bases loaded was really frustrating. I wouldn't have him in the 5 spot. Another thing is Gardner's seniority for the leadoff needs to end (frankly once Hicks gets back he shouldn't even be starting if Bird can show he's productive). I think the optimal lineup with Bird is: Torres Judge Stanton Voit Bird Sanchez Andujar Tulo Gardner With LaMahieu and no Bird just move everyone up one, maybe have DJ hit 8.

Ramsay B. Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 That pitch that Stanton struck out to though. Should’ve been absolutely crushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
