    so the guy with the least amount of spring training time is the hottest player on the team.

    make it make sense.

    Last season we started 7-9 with a -12 run differential

    Offense scored 5+ runs 3 of those 16 games

    Pitching allowed 5+ runs 7 of 16 games

    We've began slowly before

    Eta- Yordan with a laser (116mph, damn) into the RF stands (salami), tied 4-4

    There's hope

    ST isn’t that important to hitters.

    We're lacking leadership with Gurriel and Verlander gone and Altuve and McCullers out.

    Garcia's appearance in the WBC was a fraud.

    Garcia is hot garbage right now but lol to everyone thinking this slow start “just feels different” and that this team won’t be contending for the WS again.

    I do think we’ll target a TOR arm at some point. Losing the absolute workhorse powerhouse that was JV last year will probably stretch the entire staff too much. I think a lot of folks underestimated how much we’d miss him.

    Maldy’s batting average is currently .211. Should we give him the award now or wait? ;)

    Luis has nothing. Velo down, not sharp, etc.
