Cedric look embarrassed to have to participate in the contrived and horrible bike handle HR dugout celly. I hope this ends soon.

Just rewatched. Unreal. I’ve only seen snow (flurries) during a baseball game when I went to see Os play Twins at target field in early April….I don’t recommend. Was not as intense as that. Wow. Thanks for the heads up.

Still two games to go in the series. We really did their pitching staff in during the first game of the series.

Easy fix for former RH baseball players converting to softball. Bat lefty. lol

They don't want to pull any hammies.

Stowers is being overshadowed by a few guys, but is lighting it up.

He was super impressive. Grayson did really well not have his A game. He leans on his CU and it wasn't working today.

I think it's all about the growth mindset and trying to find a competitive advantage. Like, they believe it should work and be better and are sticking to their guns even though first glance shows poor results. I have to imagine they have some internal metrics to measure their own process & progress. But again, this is just me guessing. And I'm not going to sit here and say it works and is the way to do it. I like the thought process, but like you I haven't seen the process coming to fruition yet and have reservations.

Not if you're a 20-24 year old riding a bus lol But yes, from a fan standpoint, it's pretty lame.

I follow the Tides fairly closely. I don't follow the lower minors as much. I imagine they do it throughout. I believe I've heard interviews about how their programming is consistent from the lowest levels to the highest and their special assistants (coaches) are roving up and down throughout the system. I think they are all playing form the same sheet of music. Biggest jump in all baseball is AAA to MLB. I think sometimes we all take for granted how darned good the guys in MLB are. They make the impossible look easy...most of the time. I also think that's why we see so much positional movement at the MLB level.

I think Avg. EV trumps D and you figure it out from there. But all seriousness, the miscues tonight are non-prospects mostly. Also, guys are playing all over the field slightly out of position. I think there is something to be said for that. The myelination effect. Super focus on a new skill, make it difficult, challenges always, no similar reps and skills will grow. Rinse repeat fall into boring pattern and skills will not grow. I think he puts folks out of their comfort zone a bit in the minors to promote skill growth. Just a hunch.

The Tides D is dog water and the Tides pitching is dog $):/

Maybe next year.

Yea. You have to pick your spots and that was not it. Freezing. He went 100% last inning thinking it’d be his last. He was cooked.

Kevin Browns to-do list: -work pierogi into broadcast

Austin Hays 2024 thread about to have 3 pages added by midnight.

Wow. Grod is a stud. What a finish to his day.

Think he knows he has 2 batters and is emptying tank. Baumann getting up. We need 6 more runs.

Grayson looks cooked.

If Cedric is healthy he will be OK.

I just saw and came here to post. Omg - it’s coming down. What a waste of $$$ https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5YwGhJr2Dy/?igsh=dHpzYnQ3YXZ3MTkw

Gunnar needs to field that if he can get to it.

Pitt has a fun team to watch.

Against a guy throwing 77% strikes.

Jones is impressive.
