Heading to the game today. Anyone know who's pitching?
Late the this thread. Lets just use it for spring training talk.
RDLR shit the bed again today. Archie didn't look much better either. Although he was getting strikeouts.
Beef, Drury, & Gosselin continue to hit. Beef 3-4 with a HR, two 2b, & 5 RBIs. Drury with a 2-run HR.
Marshall pitched a scoreless inning. Starting to take hold of the last BP spot if a LHP doesn't show up.
Segura, Pollack, Goldy, & Tomas all got the day off.
Arizona is just dominating the spring. Tops in almost every offensive category and I think they're 11-3.
Yeah I know most spring success usually has a hard time translating to the regular season but it's still exciting.And that is without Pollock or Tomas playing & Goldy barely getting more than a single AB when he does play. Lots of competition in the lineup.
But the overall record during spring really doesn't mean or tell much in most circumstances. Case in point, the Phillies have a nearly identical spring record. They are going to struggle to win 65 games. Or on the opposite end of the spectrum, you have the Royals & Cubs near the bottom record wise. Both teams are expected to be in the WS chase.
Is Peter Obrien consistent enough to be an everyday player? It's too bad we have a logjam in the OF because that dude can mash. Maybe we should move him back to catcher.
I doubt O'Brien breaks spring with the big league club. He just doesn't have a position, yet. He has been working mainly in left & a little at 1B. I could see him being an early call-up if an OF gets hurt.
Tuffy or Herrmann will be the backup. Herrmann is guaranteed to make the roster as a utility LH bat. He can play C, 1B, RH, & LF. Herrmann is also out of options.
Big shock who was absolute shit again today
Rhymes with booby de la shitta
What a trainwreck he is vs almost any left handed hitter. One of the worst ever vs LHH
O'Brien was terrible defensively in LF the few games I saw this year. He has no business out there. But catcher...I'm all ears.

"Beef" is Welington Castillo. It refers to the dish Beef Wellington.I have the D-Backs in an affiliate league....was wondering who "Beef" is referring to.
I hope at some point Ruby can be converted to a set up man in the bullpen. Throwing 99 mph out of the bullpen would be nice.
