Big thanks!
Feliz says his greatest thrill was striking out Boston Red Sox DH David Ortiz, one of his heroes. Yet, when he called to tell his parents, his mother had a request: Strike out New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez, too.
"So when I did that," Feliz says, "I told my mom, 'There you go. There's your present. Don't ask me to strike anyone else out, OK?'
For those of you who have been out here, what time do the minor league games start every day?
We’re at the big league game today but we’re thinking about watching the minors tomorrow instead of going to Peoria for the big game.

Ohh.
I get it now. I was desperately hoping, however, that this was actually a link to Jules Borbon actually performing the dance between innings or something. Such a tease Rodney.

Love me some Spring Training baseball!
So many questions still to be answered….
Who is our 4th and 5th starters opening day?
Who will we trade for to be our UI guy? Or is he already on the roster?
Who sticks in the pen and who doesn’t?
Will Feliz and Holland start in the minors?

OT sort of but

It seems wrong somehow

Us. Sounds like they have some pretty sorry candidates for their 5th starter gig
Towers, Russ Ortiz, and Ramon Ortiz are who I think Nadel mentioned as being the competition
They seem to have given up on him as being a part of the future
Not to mention they have 21-year old Ivan DeJesus at AA, who hit .324/.419/.423 last year
Who is the backup SS
right now for the Dodgers? I think Hu is the only backup SS they have.

I wouldn’t mind Green as a UTL guy.

That's
my point. I don’t know if Martin is going to hold up, I rather limit his innings behind the plate.
But Ned Colletti and Joe Torre clearly disagree with me.

Rabble rabble rabble!
panic, rabble!
So much energy is wasted overanalyzing individual mid-ST performances. Not saying I know what to expect from Lewis, but the conclusions from the last start were silly. Mike Rhyner never even mentioned him as a rotation option in his mind the other day when they discussed candidates. That made him no better than eighth or ninth.
I heard that too
It must have just slipped his mind right? I mean, he can’t honestly think Lewis is that far down on the list of options can he?
by #5withabullet on Mar 20, 2010 3:43 PM CDT up reply actions
He might have just been forgetting him
I just found it illustrative of the general attitude I heard a lot of this week, which was that Lewis would be nowhere near a rotation of the five best starters, if that was the actual basis.

Kinda talkin' about me.
I’d say I’m remaining un-optimistic until he’s proven himself over a few weeks of the season.
I don't really have a problem with
un-optimistic. I just don’t think it should be based on what we saw the other day, and a lot of it seems to be.

SSS, for real, or little of both?
"There's not a man alive who can whup me. I'm too fast. I'm too smart. I'm too pretty. I should be a postage stamp. That's the only way I'll ever get licked." --Muhammad Ali
I think it's somewhere in the middle
and I think some are a little quick to go overboard as far as what to expect from him as a starter, but it’s also clear that he’s matured and that he is benefiting from that on the mound.
by Brett Perryman on Mar 20, 2010 3:52 PM CDT up reply actions
i was going to say that nobody really panicked over colby
but i now remember a ton of people saying that colby shouldn’t have been guaranteed anything and adam and other having to tell them that colby was definitely going to be a starter
whatever. no different than any other year. people will always react to spring training. every year we get new rangers fans on the board and every year they do the same thing. at least it’s not the same people making those mistakes year to year
""It was a ball, dude," Davis said. "I don’t swing at balls anymore." -CD
On this
First, you’re right about that last part. It is what it is.
As far as Lewis in particular, I can understand that people are hanging on every piece of evidence with him, since he is such an unknown. I just heard a lot of the same basic idea this week, that he doesn’t need to be in the rotation, given all of their positive options. And while there was obviously some of that before, and a few were very vocal about it, my sense has been that a good number of fence sitters were ready to pick a side to commit to after that game. And his performance just didn’t warrant that, imo, even if you are willing to take one ST start and run with it. At any rate, just like I don’t think last time should have been looked at closely, I don’t think much should be read into his success today. He’s shown a good slider and gotten quite a few swings and misses with that, but I just think we won’t have much of an idea of what to expect until we see at least 2-3 regular season starts from him.
by Brett Perryman on Mar 20, 2010 4:05 PM CDT up reply actions
There is a lot we can take from ST performances
but you just can’t make the mistake of forgetting that these guys are still working on getting in regular season shape and working out the kinks. Especially the more veteran players like Lewis.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

how often has salty played?
seems like they’ve held him back an awful lot. or it might be that i keep missing him on the days he is playing
""It was a ball, dude," Davis said. "I don’t swing at balls anymore." -CD
I'd say it is about 50-50 with the PT. Almost 60-40 with Salty getting a little more. IIRC
You’ve probably just been missing him.

I lived like a mile north of there..
about ten years ago and worked out there then, but also when I would come back to town I’d stay up in that area and work out there and then Chik-Fil-A across the street usually after most work outs. I went by there a couple months ago to do a work out and it was all closed up. I was bummed, I liked that gym with the basketball court in the middle and all that but I had a feeling it was going to close because all the equipment was so old.

Yeah,
it was a dump in the end. It was nice back in the day though. It used to have a pool inside that thing believe it or not. Actually, when I was in jr. high (early 90’s), it used to be called “The Carrollton Athletic Club,” and they had this thing called ‘Friday Night Live’ where there was a dj and pizza and stuff. It was off the chain. I met my first girlfriend there. Kim Morrison. Ahhh. Those were the days.

Not just based off that AB, but he’s in his prime now, should have limited ABs against lefties, and will be fighting for playing time. He might not have more than 350 PAs this season, but he’s going to make each one count

Speaking of Holland's velocity
I heard a few minutes of the newest edition of Chew-bacsik and Newberry or whatever his name is. I was going to list the ridiculous things they said, but the list became too long. So I will just say, those two = the guys who were supposed to guard the bees with Homer Simpson.
just give me a little taste of what they were saying?

by Cecilio's Guante on Mar 20, 2010 4:30 PM CDT up reply actions
I probably won't remember the worst stuff
since I stopped keeping a mental list, but a few that come to mind:
1. Newberry is more concerned about the utility infielder than the catching position (he will still be talking about Vizquel five years from now if he’s still on the radio)
2. Bacsik compared Matt Harrison to this point with Jamey Moyer – all feel and finesse, no stuff or velocity
3. Bacsik acknowledged that Rangers people actually told him this past week that they would not just cut McCarthy, as he assured everyone last week would happen later in ST, but he reasserted that ‘sometimes teams do that when they owe someone a million dollars who won’t make the team’ and noted that Chuck Greenberg doesn’t own the team yet, the suggestion being that maybe MLB would force them to cut him.
4. 90 mph – which is what Bacsik claimed Holland’s sat at last year (fangraphs says 92.5) – is a power fastball for a lefty
Newberry had a few others that I don’t recall. Basically every single thing he said was idiotic.
