2018 MLB Spring Training Running Thread

And all the stay-at-home moms tired of supporting Drew Carey's FC Seattle? [/waybackmachinecrossthread].

 

Just a quick note to say Frank Schwindel had another good day yesterday for KC, which sent down the other 1st base prospect. Seriously, this is my only rooting interest in MLB.

 

Braves pull the Kris Bryant service time game with Ronald Acuna:

 

As they should.

 

Yeah, as a Braves fan I'm fine with it. Just a stupid rule.

 

No. 82 for Arizona broke up the no-hitter in the 8th against the White Sox, who are winning 15-0.

 

No. 87 just tripled home No. 82 so it's 15-1.

 

And No. 53 just 5-3'd to score No. 87 so it's 15-2.

 

No. 83 just looked at strike 3, 2 outs.

 

No. 23 the White Sox southpaw just 86'd No. 86 by making him chase and badly miss an outside curve, end of inning.

 

At least the contracts are guaranteed. Compared to seeing players get cut by NFL teams because of the salary cap, can't
feel bad for guys who get optioned to the minors for economical reasons.

 

Color guy: He's not the Lone Ranger ...

PBP guy: The Sox play the Rangers tomorrow.

Game ends 2 pitches later on a 1-2-3 double play by the Sox.
