He looks behind. But I guess that’s common ST occurrence? Trout talked with. Fletch about his recent struggles and believes that he’s had chronic bad habit of sliding vs stepping and that’s led to alot of bad habits, and slumps for 2022 and 2923. . He’s now trying g to shake those by getting a lot more at bats in ST than he has in the past.
I dunno, have you heard/seen/smelled Blowhei Sucktani, ate at Yoshinoyamoto’s, had a mookie milkshake or stayed 5 nights at Freddie’s?!? If so, you’ve already won a few rings!
I just watched the highlights on that game. Yamamoto looks legit with some really poor swings against him. Different motion, almost short arms the ball.
I’ve lived within 5 min of Dodgers Stadium for 20+ years. Every spring I watch a few games to try to get interested in the storylines, and I follow their farm system generally. I always struggle to find a spark – otherwise it’d be so convenient to be a Dodgers fan.
But this season might be a little different. Mookie and Sho are hard not to like, Yamamoto is ridiculous. I tend to follow prospects, rookies and international players – more players than teams – and LA has those in spades this year.
Yamamoto as good as advertised, many teams wanted him, would have been a great attraction on Angels to replace Sho for Japanese fan base. But Sho helps recruit him to his already stacked team. 👎
I remember little league (like 7 and under) teaching me not to wear my superhero underwear… own team was more brutal than the opposing one. The day of the week ones faired a lot better, belt hid the lettering 😉
For you savages actually watching ST baseball, how does Trout look physically and how does his swing/bat speed look?
Same questions re: Rendon.
Graci
Anderson’s pitching looked the same.
Trout looks like Trout. Strong like bull and swinging for the fences.
Rendon has played a couple of games without getting hurt. Looks to be moving the same as last spring.

#Ron Wash 15 WAR
Jahmai Jones to the skank organization
The A’s?
No one has ever won a ring
Based on games in the Spring

Oh well, we’re under .500 now.
Time to trade anyone of value.
better to be below now, and for Trout to be hitless now
I’ll buy that for a dollar.
We’re as doomed as doom could be… #burnitdown2024Angels
When’s the trade deadline?
Mickey double!
up to Marisnick now
This Rockie pitcher’s first name should be Chili.
or Milli
Vanilli?
Kid is rattled
Sano generates some bat speed.
Watched Texas-Dodgers for a spell today. Yamamoto as advertised. That splitter is wicked work. He made a couple Rangers look foolish.
The Dodgers are going to be stupid fun to watch this year.
I just watched the highlights on that game. Yamamoto looks legit with some really poor swings against him. Different motion, almost short arms the ball.
The command is insane. Even in his first outing, he looks like he’s outthinking every hitter and putting the ball just where he wants it.
They’re going to have some real winning streaks this year when things are clicking.

Good to know.
Thanks.

8 LOBs and 1-8 RISP, hopefully a tread that doesn’t continue. Situation hitting please!!
Yesterday: 9 LOB, 2-13 RISP
Giants: 7 LOB but 4-10 RISP
Royals: 10 LOB, 0-9 RISP
Reds: 7 LOB, 2-11 RISP
Doyers: 8 LOB, 2-14 RISP
Room for improvement on the hitting side.
Been impressed with the bullpen though
Enjoyed seeing Ward leading off ahead of Schanuel. Hope it sticks.
I love hearing the announcers trying to locate the names for the late inning replacements. Hearing Bobby V say virtually anything is less enjoyable.
Terry mentioned yesterday the players with higher number don’t even have their names on the back.
They should just get temporary tattoos with their names and numbers. They would be easy to read with the new Nike jerseys.

If you’re a filler player, they usually asked your size and the number came with it.
Just for fun I played with the trade simulator.
Bryant + $38 million = Rendon.
It’s a bargain…but remember it’s just a job.
Had a similar thought yesterday! Not sure there’s any winners there but that type of deal I’m sure has been thought about.
Another poster proposed it and I gave it a look.
That doesn’t seem right considering the monies remaining in each Contract. Bryant $136M/5 vs Rendone $115.7M/3)
But I’d do that in a second. Interesting that Bryants contract ends the same year as Trouts and hes only 5 months younger than the GOAT.
I think Bryant is projected to be below replacement level when Rendon is done.
Negative field value plus big money is a bad combination.
Adam Cimbers life flashed before his eyes
Those 85 mph sinkers can be dangerous to his health. All the batters that inning got good wood on his pitches
No doubt. Might be getting some new underwear.
Interesting… on Gameday, all the in-play balls are now a purple color, instead of blue like they always were.
Maybe this is our year!
Never cared for blue balls anyway.
A married guy must’ve designed it.
Ha!
Same old Charlie Sheen too.
“He (Schanuel) reminds me of Barry Bonds”
Bobby V is a national treasure. Respect him
Yep – heard it. It was a stupid comment then. It’s a stupid comment now.
I suspect Schanuel will approach Barry Bonds typical season home run numbers this season-If approach means within 50-60 or so.
Man, Bryant signed that huge deal with the Rox and feels like we haven’t heard a peep from him since.
Shows that we are not the only team that cannot find a deal on Free Agents that play 3b.
No no, only Arte signs big deals he regrets. 😂
BorAss got hm top dollar so he must be happy . Right?
Are you proposing a trade of bad contracts kind of like Mo Vaughn for Kevin Appier?
Oh, i’m sure he’s happy. He’s a millionaire living in Colorado. It’s not a bad gig.
I’d trade Tony for him straight up. Change of scenery could be good for both.
Interesting.
Bryant is 32 but has 5 years and a $136 Million left while Rendone is 34 and has 3 years and $115.7 Million.
I think I would do it too.
I would much rather ride it out with Rendone. 5 years is a long time
It’s definitely a risk
LOBster City again today.
Rendone on base twice today.
And he didn’t have to fight anyone.
