Would be great to get Eric’s thoughts on Giolito’s mechanics

Lol, the ASU baseball trackman laptop kids are literally talking about how short his stroke is now.

2 year olds are horrible human beings. Source: my 2 year old was supposed to be asleep over 2.5 hours ago and instead spent the time repeatedly kicking me in the head until I got fed up and left his room. Now he's opening his door before running back and jumping in his bed. All of which is preventing me from watching baseball in peace for the first time in months
Ben Clemens

Foolish humans
Having kids, and such
Nats
10:41
Was Giolito not working out with the Nats the Nats fault? or something that he would have figured out in DC anyways? I remember sitting in the cold rain to see his debut and then after that I try to forget his Nats tenure.

I think it's easy cause-effect thinking to blame a team in situations like this, but sometimes it takes a while and sometimes players change, at times dramatically....
Good lord, Matt Chapman is a really good 3B.
10:42
Short hop, spin and throw vs. an 80 runner in Straw.
Phil White
10:42
Was curious of Pujols stats in the 2 spot compared to 6th.
Ben Clemens
10:43
Well, he's hitting .125/.125/.125 in the 2 spot
.... in 8 pa
It's kind of remarkable how rarely he's hit there
10:44
I guess TLR has always been a bat-control-dude-second manager
Kevin Goldstein
10:44
I fear people have spent so much time bitching about Pujols' last few years that they've forgotten about how amazing he was.
Ben Clemens
10:44
.... as he has shown with Eaton tonight
People should try being Cardinals fans
It's easy for us to remember the greatness
Highly recommend it
Kevin Goldstein
10:45
Favorite Cardinal?

I'm a lefty and I used to watch along to my Ozzie That's a Winner tape (vcr'ed on a trip to my uncle's house in St. Louis) 20 times a day
Eric A Longenhagen
10:46
Placido Polanco
Ben Clemens
10:46
I'm actually into Edmonds as well; of the post-Ozzie era, he's my favorite I think
Eric A Longenhagen
10:46
Ah I guess Furcal was a Cardinal for a little bit. 80 arm
Kevin Goldstein
10:46
80 wheels for a bit
Ben Clemens
10:46
Did you hate Rolen, Eric?
Eric A Longenhagen
10:46
no
Eric A Longenhagen
10:48
this is also a useful visual
Ben Clemens
10:47
Feel like he was pretty disliked in Philly
