Peter Alonso is batting 1.000 against pitchers not named Max Scherzer

Dan Szymborski

Howard 2.0!

Ray Liotta as Sholess Joe

Former Mariner, Mallex Smith. Current Mariner, Mallex Smith.

Is Davey Martinez a bad manager? I feel like he was a good hire and I am not trying to go off of a 2019 sample by any means, but I am finding myself easily convinced that he is a bad manager.

Dan Szymborski

3:27

Erasmo Ramirez is always in the process of being shopped to the Mariners or by the Mariners.

Meg Rowley

3:27

I hear this is where you go to chat with friends about baseball?

Craig Edwards

3:27

I have no idea, though managing is hard and he's still relatively inexperienced so he could be getting a lot better. Maybe not, though.

Jay Jaffe

It's TV's Meg Rowley! Welcome

Mike: I saw that pitch, it was guffaw-worthy.

Dan Szymborski

3:27

Hi Meg!

LFC Mike

3:27

I hope the press box in Cincinnati is serving up some delicious Skyline Chili... with beans!

Dan Szymborski

3:27

I haven't checked the cafeteria. I usually go down to Porkopolis for hot dogs

Al Gone Quinn

3:28

Speaking of Hanley... is his career just like Ernie Banks', i.e. moving from SS to 1B?

Craig Edwards

3:28

Sure, why not? It's opening day. We can engage in flights of fancy.

Billy Beane

3:28

Rank these baseball things/people in terms of excitement: Khris Davis, Giancarlo Stanton, JD Martinez, Nelson Cruz, Shohei Ohtani, a double-switch.

CubFan

3:28

Does the recent signing of Morales to the A's doom the chances of Barreto being relevant this year? Is a change of scenery his best bet to be a full time player?

Craig Edwards

3:29

there's still time and positions for him to be sueful at.

Dan Szymborski

3:29

The O's keep everything fluid. And Kendrys Morales can't doom anyone these days

A's

not O's

Philie legend Pedro Martinez

Jay Jaffe

3:29

It was a short run but damn, he was fun in that 2009 postseason. That afternoon pitchers' duel with the Dodgers' Vicente Padilla and then his 1st start against the Yankees, Game 2 of the World Series, which I attended. They got the better of him eventually but he made them work for it.

Eric A Longenhagen

3:29

Ahoy from Tempe

Meg Rowley

3:29

Shohei Ohtani, Giancarlo, JD Martinez, Double-Switch, Davis (from most to least)

Wire Fan

I have one slice of bread. If I throw some cheese, turkey and tomato on it and fold it in half, am I eating a sandwich? What if I cut the bread in half first?

Meg Rowley

3:29

Well hello!

Craig Edwards

3:30

Stanton, Martinez, Ohtani, Jhoulys Chacin batting, Cruz, Davis, double switch

Dan Szymborski

3:30

You have to cut it.

Jay Jaffe

3:30

wait, a double switch is more exciting than the uncanny consistency of Khris Davis and his .247 AVG?

Dan Szymborski

3:30

Sandwiches can't be hinged.

Jay Jaffe

3:30

the hell they can't

Meg Rowley

3:30

If we're doing food talk, I'm leaving.

Dan Szymborski

3:30

I was never prouder of ZiPS than when it spat out a .247 BA for Davis

Derek

3:30

I've been seeing "Pete Alonso" listed a lot of places the last couple days, but only ever saw him referred to as "Peter Alonso" until now. Is he Pete or Peter? Did he make an announcement that he wants to go by Pete now that I missed? Or did some members of the media just suddenly decide to call him Pete? This is bothering me more than it should.

Craig Edwards

3:30

Yes.

Dan Szymborski

3:31

Sandwiches are baseball-related. If not, we're sullying the memory of Eno

CubFan

3:31

Do you expect Eloy to stay up all season? If so, what kind of numbers do you expect?

Craig Edwards

3:31

Yes, and somewhere in the top-20 for hitters in the AL.
