Austin Meadows sounds like nice subdivision to live in.

Eric A Longenhagen

Pretty sure Brandon Lowe will exhaust his rookie eligibility today

Dan Szymborski

4:15

aaaaand Luis Castillo's first walk

Meg Rowley

4:15

Blue, just above where the rankings start in any given position (you won't see it in the intro or summary) there is a bar with all the positions laid out. Just under that is a "View by Team" drop down.

4:16

Lowe pronounced like Now, right?

Dan Szymborski

4:17

Unfortunately yes.

Blue

4:17

Found it. Thanks Meg!

Craig Edwards

4:18

That name again is Mr. Lowe.

Dan Szymborski

4:18

lol

He better be good if he wants me to prounounce Lowe different than every other person named Lowe that ever existed ever.

4:19

You can't be Alcides Escobar and then tell people your last name is pronounced "Ecto-cooler"

Eric A Longenhagen

4:19

Michael Brantley struck out, repent, repent!

druidiful

4:19

Dan, wouldn't that mean that Escobar was actually tradable?

Dan Szymborski

4:20

good point

Craig Edwards

4:20

Harper just struck out.

Dan Szymborski

4:20

WORST SIGNING EVER

Tommy Hunter Bishop

4:22

Anonymous

4:22

How fast does Aroldis Chapman usually throw again?

Eric A Longenhagen

4:22

Can still run and go get it in the OF, LAA was light on 40-man OFs heading to spring training.

Jay Jaffe

4:22

OK folks, I'm going to bow out here. fistbumps to my fellow FG staffers and thank you to our readers for tuning in.

Craig Edwards

4:22

Maybe he was just taking it easy today.

Dan Szymborski

4:22

cya Jay!

Wonger Donger

4:22

Kolten Wong has 2 HR. Is he the new Altuve?

Craig Edwards

4:23

Opening Day is so great.

Dan Szymborski

4:23

Wong is Right, some hacky editor somewhere is writing

Eric A Longenhagen

4:23

If glovin you is Wong?

ummmm

4:23

Do you not want your name to be "ecto-cooler?" That would be badass

The Electrician

4:24

With THE GAME being gone, do you ever think about the day baseball is gone? Like, do you think it will take a catastrophic event for MLB to end, or will it wane in popularity until it's just not really a thing anymore? Do you think it lasts another 50 years? 100 years? Is the game played on floating fields atop a water world?

Dan Szymborski

4:24

I think these things most likely will fade

I think it lasts 50

Star Trek Deep Space Nine had it ending somewhere in the 2030s, I beleive

In one of the Buck Bokai episodes

He was suppposed to debut already

Chris

4:25

Should but Buck Bokai on THE BOARD tbh

Sean

4:25

Does Marcell Ozuna get a one year or multi year deal next year?

Meg Rowley

4:25

Well as someone who won't be retirement age in 2030 that's not at all concerning.

Jkim

4:25

I still don't know how Joc actually makes contact with the ball with that swing. when he does he just murders the ball though!

Dan Szymborski

4:25

Do baseball writers REALLY retire?

Craig Edwards

4:25

i would think he could at least get brantly's deal even if he repeats last season.

Meg Rowley

4:25

I plan on walking into the sea.
