The off speed pitch
is that a curveball? Seems like a curveball from gameday.
"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
well he's getting ground balls with that new cutter
they’re just all hit hard into gaps.
What is this, Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers.
EG agrees
2:17: Welcome to the world of being a ground ball pitcher, Brandon McCarthy. It took McCarthy 27 pitches to work through the first. He allowed a leadoff walk to Erick Aybar on four pitches, then gave up three consecutive ground ball singles before getting his first out on his 17th pitch of the inning. Will say this: 16 of his final 22 pitches were strikes.
Gotta keep Elvis and Ian on their toes.

"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
So McCarthy allowed three hits
on 76-78mph pitch. Seemed like a curveball according to gameday. Did they say what pitch it was on the radio?
"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

not a great way to show you’re ready for the rotation Mr McCarthy.

EG on Scheppers
The Rangers have said they are leaving the door open for Scheppers to potentially help the club in the second half of the season. He is currently preparing as a starter, but would likely be used as a reliever this season if he comes to the majors. The Rangers would like to restrict his innings this season since they don’t feel he’s done much the last two seasons. The likely threshold for innings pitched is 100-120.
damn Guerrero almost went yard

3:02: So, Colby Lewis gave up a solo homer to Mike Napoli in his first inning of work. Of his next 18 pitches, 15 were strikes, including a pair of slow curves for called strikeouts. Lewis looks much more savvy on mound than during his previous stint with Rangers when he was wrongly rushed to the majors.

Any of you guys ever considered getting your Ph.D?
JD’s like, "you want some fucking pitching? Here’s all the pitching you can stand. Now choke on it, bitches!"- RCCook

I've had some buddies that had trouble getting a job after they were done with a PHD program
I would just have your eyes set on that, is all
Firebat
is right. It does matter what field you are in. For accounting it is great if you want to be a professor but it really doesnt do anything in the working world. For finance it is actually a pretty nice bump if you have experience but time and money is probably better served concentrating on getting your CFA which, to me, is the equivalent of a PhD.

JD’s like, "you want some fucking pitching? Here’s all the pitching you can stand. Now choke on it, bitches!"- RCCook
so I assume you are foregoing a bit of salary now doing that
but not a whole lot? I’d do it. Unless you just can’t stand research, it’s not a bad gig. And the school part is minimal.
The problem is that the analytics field took a major hit last year
when the economy cratered so I went back to school… Scored well enough that I had no problems getting into the program of my choice. Now since I am in my program I have vaulted to the top of my peer group and am getting hounded by my department. To take it a step further they have found out how high my entrance numbers where and are basicly trying to bribe me to stay.

I don't think
a variety of interests is prohibitive for having a fellowship. If you’re the type of person who can say “I have interests, but I also have a core profession”, there’s no reason why you can’t get a fellowship and still apply yourself to whatever you want to do.

I know this may be a little off
but in determining the pursuit of future degrees I rarely factor in money. It is all about opportunity cost. What else would you be doing for those five years if you didnt go? Would NOT having a PhD stop you from doing what you really want to do? Lastly, what is the regret factor? Would you regret not going?

You'll probably want an LLM in tax too, if you're serious about getting into tax practice

Oh i know
which would make the total journey 4 years. Doing a little work on the LSAT now but i am going to ramp it up after this trimester is done in grad school. I figure with an MS, MBA, CPA, and JD (along with an LLM as you say) ill be okay as far as job prospects plus i really do enjoy tax work. IIt is basically a very complex puzzle to me. Of course, ill be swimming in a lot of student loan debt too ha
"JD gets complete blame or credit for what happens in 2010 and I think Nolan wants it that way. JD is paid to be a real GM and needs to start performing like one." - Josey Wales
His CPA and MBA is an added credential booster, no doubt
But to what end it would make up for the lack of a Tax LLM, I don’t know. Conventional wisdom is, to my understanding, that you need an LLM if you want to break into the serious levels of tax practice.
"Dying ain't hard. It’s living in the wake of a thorough public humiliation that’s hard.--JDT217
If you rank well at your law school and have a CPA
You can get a big-firm job doing tax law without a problem, but maybe further down the line an LLM could be helpful—I’m not sure about that.
Appreciate this discussion
as i have wondered before whether there would be a value add with the LLM or simply some rather impressive redundancy.
"JD gets complete blame or credit for what happens in 2010 and I think Nolan wants it that way. JD is paid to be a real GM and needs to start performing like one." - Josey Wales
Yeah, that's something I would probably investigate by looking at the bios of the tax practice groups with some of the big firms
If a fair number of those guys have made it without LLMs, then I might not think its such an absolute prereq.

Surprise Stadium logistics questions
So, the Rangers and Royals share the same ballpark. A couple of questions come to mind….
1) Do the Rangers and Royals occupy the same dugout regardless of who is the road team and who is the home team?
2) When an outside visiting team comes in for a game (like the Angels), do they even bother to bring their stuff into the clubhouse – or does it stay in a bus? It would seem to be a beating to move the Rangers/Royals clubhouse stuff before every game.
If nobody answers, I’ll email Evan Grant.

They scored 4 runs on our minor leaguer
and we only scored 3 on theirs. Obviously, this means they’re a superior team.

Nope, just a deeper farm system.
Oh wait, they are ranked somewhere like 28th aren’t they?

OT question
shouldn’t the catcher be able to see the ball better than other players on the team? Looks to me like they get the most experience “seeing” pitches as they approach the plate. Any thoughts?
I soloed in the Mile High Club!
I was wondering the same thing earlier today.
I think the issue may be that they are used to seeing the ball from a different angle and thinking about it in a very different context, i.e. framing and treating every ball as if it were a strike. I can imagine that it would be easy to overthink.
Dutchman on the mound!
I soloed in the Mile High Club!
Agreed
it’s the type of innings you give to your 8th best prospect, not a legitimate 5th rotation spot candidate.

I think he couldn't focus
because he realized he was pitching against a character from a Mark Twain novel.

I'm pretty sure there's more
but I ask because all we have is radio and gameday. Unless you’re blogging from the game, how did you know what the fastballs looked like?

Kneejerk = "Holland does not need to be our #5 this year"
Not a kneejerk = general assessment of how he pitched today
Knee-jerk
is you being encouraged or discouraged about a single player based on his first game. God you’re lame.

It's also his first spring training game
and 90 was his lowest, with 93-4 being the highest. It’s not anything to worry about.

@Adam_Schefter Filed to ESPN: Raiders waived WT Javon Walker and DE Greg Ellis. Talk about two moves that didn’t work out.
