just got a look at YES doing a montage of three Josh Donaldson throws. Ugly. Wow.

Travis Sawchik

5:49

Yeah, pretty ugly

Eric A Longenhagen

Toronto 40-man doesn't have a clear replacement. Who else got big league reps at third this spring?

fill in the (kyle) blanks

5:50

the A's are probably going to be mediocre this year but davis and olson going back to back on opening day sets the mind to wondering...

Travis Sawchik

5:50

OLSON ALERT

Ohtani Kitean

5:50

Do the Cubs' pitching coaches have the pixie dust to make something out of Tyler Chatwood?

Travis Sawchik

5:50

What if Olson is freaking Babe Ruth?

Bort

5:50

Solarte is the obvious replacement at 3B for Donaldson, no?

Eric A Longenhagen

5:50

Agreed

Jay Jaffe

5:50

With that groundball rate, there's a lot to like about Chatwood now that he's out of Coors. I think he'll be a solid back-end guy.

Travis Sawchik

High drama in Baltimore

Eric A Longenhagen

5:51

The Rex Brothers on for ATL to face JP Crawford with 2 on, 2 out in 6th.

*Arenado glares at travis*

Jay Jaffe

5:51

Both of them, Eric? That seems unfair.

Travis Sawchik

5:51

Rockies have two MVP candidates but ...

Jkim

5:53

Kemp vs. Schwarber - who is worse in LF defense?

Jay Jaffe

5:53

I think this should be a weekly competition so long as both are playing regularly out there.

Ohtani Kitean

5:54

Neil Walker with ground rule double for first hit as a Yankee

Jay Jaffe

5:54

It's fair to say that Travis and I are both members of the Neil Walker Fan Club

K-Man

5:56

game tied in Baltimore, holy moly

Jay Jaffe

5:56

Man, when is Showalter going to use Britton? Oh, right...

Travis Sawchik

5:58

Indeed!

Walker was a great signing

5:59

Especially with Bird's continuing issues

Eric A Longenhagen

6:00

Philly up 5-0 after two walks by Brothers (pitching change) then 2-run single by Knapp. I'm changing games.

Ohtani Watch: T-minus 1 batter

Jay Jaffe

up now

Bernie Brewer

6:04

Josh Hader struck out the side. He good.

Erik

6:08

Nola coming out after 68 pitches and no runs allowed

Austin

6:09

So far just 2 guys have pitched past the sixth inning

Jay Jaffe

can't wait to hear Jack Morris' thoughts about this on Induction Day.

Lorenzo Cain in a non Royals uniform is weird looking.

Jay Jaffe

6:10

To be fair, he did play 43 games as a Brewer when he first came up.

Erik

6:12

Nola was pulled for a lefty specialist to face Freddie Freeman, so Freddie gives up a homer.

Travis Sawchik

6:12

Good intentions, though

Bernie Brewer

6:13

Lorenzo Cain in a Brewers uniform is amazing.

Travis Sawchik

6:13

Love that move for the Brewers. They could very well be in the playoff hunt

John Jaso Jingle Heimer Schmidt

6:13

I had Severino, Nola, and Anderson going today. 17 IP, 0 ER (so far), 5 H allowed.

Good day, eh?

Travis Sawchik

6:13

The fly-ball revolution is over

Jay Jaffe

6:14

Considering how bad the Brewers' CF production was last year, Cain's a huge upgrade
