You're probably right about the offseason being a bad time for pitchers to recover, Sultan. There really is no good time, especially for pitchers.
Cards players go 1-7 in the WBC title game, including a crucial double play by Goldschmidt. Thanks Cards!
Ohtani is incredible, let me start there.He also has had 2 full seasons in the major leagues.So the notion that he already is an all-time great, as some excitable folks are claiming in the aftermath of the WBC, is wild. Now, he might be in that conversation one day, and today I certainly could see him being called the most unique ballplayer. And he’s must-see TV; I’m not even a big fan of the WBC, but I tuned in last night for one reason.But can’t we see if he can do this for at least 4-5 years before we put him on Mount Olympus with Ruth, Mays, Koufax and Aaron?
As opening day approaches, never forget that baseball is the holiest of games, featured prominently in the Bible....in the big inning....
Season opener for JV baseball last night. On the opposing team is a player who played who was a teammate of my son from ages 7-14. We were visiting with his parents who we always got along really well. One of the other moms, with a slight southern accent joins our conversation. Yadayadayada moved here from Missouri. Now for the part that matters to this thread and board."I haven't seen any real baseball since we left St. Louis."
Is there a reason for anyone to live in St. Louis now that Yadi has retired?
Someone is going to have 80 stolen bases this year. Watching Braves/Nats, Acuna worked Corbin perfectly to have him throw over twice. After he couldn’t throw over any more, Acuna immediately took off and easily stole second.
