    I missed the Brendan Rodgers news. I had to double take when looking at the roster this morning. Really like the signing. He doesn't walk enough, but he hits the ball hard. If he ever learned to hit the ball in the air, he could be a 30HR guy.

    Nice first at-bats for Paredes and Walker! Paredes with the bases loaded walk, and Walker hitting at 400-foot double off the center field wall. Walker had a nice defensive play in the top of the first, too.

    "Kenyon Green blocked for Brice Matthews. 1st round pick of the Texans. I would love it if Green blocked for me." -Ford-
    You sure about that, Ford?

    Whitley talking about someone elses attitude and demeanor is somewhat funny.

    Good looking stuff from Dana Brown’s guys today. Wesneski, Walker, Paredes, Smith, and Matthews all lookin tough. Whitley and Fleury also looking good.

    Holy ****. Cam Smith.
