[Official] Spring Training 2024

I may have misunderstood this but I thought we have about 1 million more in room under the second penalty in luxury tax. The next guy we sign will cost a lot in taxes and penalties. Maybe Crane is OK with that, maybe not but you do not spend that on a bench player.

 

Then, what is it?

 

Ahh, right you are. Surely we must have a reliever we can bring up as a left fielder.

 

530 OPS is where that particular line is drawn 531 is just a regular disaster.

 

Sure. My bet is blanco and Bielak could each easily pitch 80 or 120 averageish low leverage innings and you’d be just fine. Snell could turn over a 7-2 lead after 5 and they could go 3 or 4.

 

I agree with this and am sort of making a similar argument telling people to chill about the bullpen, and this is a way to do it. a other way to do it though is to give Loperfido one start at 1B, 1 at 2B and 2 in LF every week against RHP (moving Chas over to CF to sit Jake), and keep everyone fresh and sharp. That would work too if you feel like I do that we are good enough to give lots of guys days off regularly.

 

Ahhh good to see that montero is in mid season form already

 

I know it’s “just spring training” but it would be nice to start fighting for wins. The mental buildup to a season is just as important as the physical preparation.

 

Thankfully he signed with SF so we don’t have to worry about it anymore

 

It's is tired lol

 

I forgot the question mark

 

I feel the same. I know ST games don't dictate a hell of a lot but maybe try winning a ******* game every once in a while?

 

I don’t give a **** about spring training.
That first stretch of the season looks brutal though.

 

This is a real and honest quote…

 

Did he really say that? Lolololololololololololololololol.

 

Of course he did!

 

What's Jason Lane or Zach Greinke doing these days?

 

We are not Los Angeles fans that celebrate an in-season tournament or a Mickey Mouse championship... LA fans would totally celebrate a Cactus League Championship.
