3/29 - 4/8 Game Discussion Thread

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

I'm really, really starting to not like Hoskins.

He absolutely crushed that 96 mph pitch...can't miss location against big leaguers like that.

That aside, love what I'm seeing from Folty. He was good all Spring (his last start not withstanding) and for him to give up a moon shot home run and bounce back by striking out the side speaks volumes to his maturity. He always has struggled when things didn't go his way, so I was interested to see if he stated pouting/throwing instead of pitching after that homer.

Folty's motion worrys me with that little hitch he's developed. I do like that he no longer has that recoil at the end of his motion, I always felt that put more stress on the arm.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Speaking of development it's nice to see Dan rip one. 96 and he was right on it.

And another one! I'm starting to like this team a little bit.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

What are you arguing Kapler? Get on with the game.

It would be funny if this comes back to bite him. His starter just had to stand around for several minutes on a cool night.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Welp.

Pace of play, eh?

I do wish they make umps let us know what's being reviewed because God only knows what Kapler is doing.

Kapler confuses and fascinates me.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Are you ****ing kidding me? Suzuki almost lost his hand after getting hit in the glove on a follow through earlier. Now he takes one right in the wrist. I guess a healthy catcher isn't something we're going to have this season.

Huh? Can't believe he's staying in. He's tough as nails.

Dan-o is locked in Time to knock this guy out and get in that pen.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Nice to see Dansby getting off to a good start.

Hope Kurt can stay off the DL.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Kapler wants to pull the plug so bad but he knows Philly media will eat him alive. Come on Mike be your own hero!

Of course after all that he hangs one in the one place you can't get away with. Same old Mike.

Cubs forgot their bats tonight.


I think Rizzo might secretly kind of hate Contreras with how he makes throws to 1st.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Another pitching change...good luck to anyone that has to watch games against Philly this season. This is hardly making the sport more watchable.

Re: Opening Weekend Discussion Thread

Quickest pitching change I've seen.

Chappie with 100 on the black to end it. 2-0.
