This is the year Soto hits 1.000

They've changed some of the displays at Citi Field, so now I have no idea where to find the pitch metrics. I can see the walk-up music credits, at least
AvatarJay Jaffe
1:36
FWIW I can see the ball location in the pitch box as well
Davy Andrews

Oh, was it that they won't indicate whether it's a ball or strike anymore? (filled in for strike, not filled in for ball)

are you all seeing Bichette bat?
I want to make sure
AvatarJay Jaffe
1:36
yes

What's for lunch today?
AvatarJay Jaffe
1:37
frozen chicken dumplings and a homemade version of the Xi'an spicy smashed cucumber salad

I had a bunch of leftovers: tofu stir fry, pad thai, slice of pizza. The fridge is very full right now.

graham crackers and apple juice. When I don't have time for a meal, I tend to eat like a four-year-old in nursery school
I thought I was giong to babysit, so didn't put too much thought into it

Why didn't Bichette play for Team Brazil in the WBC?
Davy Andrews
1:39
I assume it was because of the knee injury he suffered last year. You don't want to mess around with that, especially when you're joining a new team on a giant contract.

Oneil Cruz made that play at third much closer than it had any right to be. Lindor got a great jump, cut the base beautifully, and yet the play was bang-bang. I have a pretty good feeling about him this year

Never mind.

Boba Chette is from Coruscant

Will Tyler O’Neill hit another Opening Day HR?
AvatarDavid Laurila
1:39
I believe that is in the starting lineup today -- he had to be, right? -- so maybe wouldn't want to bet against it.

Love it when a cleanup hitter bunts on a 1-1 pitch

I don't think it ever computed for me the 3/4ths of the NYM infield is brand new to the team this year

Dan, that's what my wife thought Bo
name was
1:41
Sad to see Bo go as a Jays fan....but I think he's already starting to physically decline.

Bold prediction question: will the Pirates three major offensive additions (Ozuna, Lowe, O'Hearn) collectively hit more than 117 homers - the team's total from last year?
AvatarDavid Laurila
1:41
This seems unlikely, but as that number has decreased to 116, the odds have improved.

Thoughts on Netflix’s presentation yesterday? Why was that dude yelling “THIS IS BASEBALL!!” like it was from the movie 300 “THIS IS SPARTA!!!!”
Davy Andrews

I still have no idea who that guy is, but I was so glad I didn't hear the sound for any of that.

So Skenes' ERA is now nine. Is this the highest it's ever been in his career at any point?
Davy Andrews
1:42
Yup.
AvatarDavid Laurila
1:42
Skene's ERA is actually 27.00 as I type this.
AvatarDan Szymborski
1:43
Yeah, he threw a few scoreless innings in his debut
before trouble
Matt Martell
1:43
Skenes has thrown 26 pitches and gotten exactly 1 whiff.
