Gunnar at DH and no Stowers vs a righty.  Ugh.

Just turned on the Nats game and I just want to say I hate watching baseball with a pitch clock on the screen.

Nice to see you are already in regular season form. 

I will say that I agree.

What network are the O's game today being shown?

What did MASN go with?

I've seen some broadcasts that had a pretty sweet placement for the clock.

NESN:

Tigers:

 

And we have this tweet.

What are you seeing?

It is hanging off the right hand side of the scoreboard in the top left hand corner of the screen. I switched over to the MLB network broadcasting the Yankees game and they are not showing the clock at all. So much better.

I'll blame MASN and not the clock itself.

I think the way the Tigers' broadcast did it is pretty sweet.

I like the lineup. Smart to let Gunnar ease into his first Opening Day as a DH, and have Urias/Mateo/Frazier each play their best positions.

Smart to have him play a position he doesn't have much experience with?  If it was me, I'd be more anxious sitting in the dugout while my team plays defense without me.

You adjust around the more talented players.  You don't worry about Frazier at the expense of Gunnar.  At least that's my view.

Ah man - so excited.  SPRING IS OFFICIALLY HERE.

Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
