I'm here for the extravaganza. Am I in the right place?
Dave Cameron
1:03
Indeed you are.
Swydan and I are hanging out for the early games.
1:04
Then Eno and Travis will tag in for us for the 4 pm (eastern) starts.
Craig and Sporer will follow them for the 7 pm games.
And then Longenhagen gets the late shift.
Carson will appear randomly, to keep things off balance.

If you've never been part of one of the these live blogs before, they're a lot of fun.
They aren't traditional chats, so this won't be as Q&A focused as the regular daily chats, but we will take some questions when there's downtime.
And mostly, we'll just all watch some baseball together.
Welcome back, baseball!

Stras going with the stretch on every pitch. Interesting.

How did Jeff manage to get out of this one?
Paul Swydan

This might be a betrayal of my Red Sox fandom, but I think I'm most excited to see Jon Gray pitch today.
Dave Cameron

He writes a lot.
Paul Swydan
1:09
Jeff writes so much. I don't know how he does it. Oh wait, Jeff doesn't have kids.
Dave Cameron

Or pets.

Why is Stras copying me (pitching out of the stretch only)? How common is this across the league?
DG

With all the emphasis on pitchers being able to repeat their motion, doesn't it seem strange there are so few starters who do not pitch exclusively from the stretch?
Dave Cameron
1:10
I think it's pretty common for relievers.
A lot less common for starters.
Paul Swydan
1:11
I remember Ubaldo Jimenez walked like 5 people in the first four innings of his no hitter, and then Bob Apodaca made him pitch from the stretch for the rest of the game.
Scott

So when/how will we find out if the Arizona speed readings were fast or accurate?
