The metrics show limited range on ground balls. He hugged the line a little too much.

I guess I am in the minority around here but I don’t see all the doom and gloom as most. People are basically writing off our younger guys but I don’t really see that any have proven they can’t play or don’t have upside. 2011 and 2012 were the first years of the beginning of WS runs. But the main position players were younger so they needed more time to develop. Plus the starting pitching was atrocious leading to back to back 90 loss seasons.
But with this group guys like Cuthbert, Boni, and Soler are older and should be getting consistent every day time at a later age. Not because they are bad but largely because they’ve been blocked and not allowed the freedom to develop at the major league level due to being in organizations that have been contending. I’m thinking they will be better this year than Hosmer, Moose, and Cain were in their early years due to being older and just having more experience. We went from 72 wins in 2012 to 86 wins in 2013. I don’t see why this team can’t fall somewhere between those numbers. The rotation is better and I think the offense can be better especially with the juiced ball. People tend to forget how terrible the offense was basically all the way until late 2014 to the start of 2015. The offense this season I see being better than probably any team of WS guys prior to the second half of 2014. I am thinking something like 78-82 wins. Don’t underestimate the value of a more winning culture either. |

Who's the idiot asking Ned if he'll buzz the tower on Hosmer. Seemed like he was pissed off Ned...that Danny Clinkscale on 810?

Just got back from Surprise. Got a 2018 Spring Training Lid. Very nice. The rest of Spring Training? This is going to be ugly.

Hopefully Soler will have a breakout season. A man can hope, can’t he?
