Bummer. I might need to go to some minor league practices. I've never done that before. I'm assuming you have?

Expand full comment

Yeah. Pretty much like major league practice at Pirate City. They generally run drills, bp or whatever from around 10-12, then eventually they'll be playing exhibitions at 1. Once they start, there are two at home and two on the road every day. Exhibitions usually start around mid-month, although the seasons are all starting earlier than ever this year, so it's hard to be sure.

All this can change without warning on any particular day (exhibitions moved to morning, for instance), but this is the usual schedule.

They were doing next-to-nothing last week, so I'm guessing those guys were reassigned now because things are about to get more active.

Thanks for the great info as always. I only have a week left here, so better make the most of it.

Normally, I'd be out there a lot, but Mon and Tue are looking very busy and aggravating.

Good thing Hammering Henry Davis is not a professional wrestler. His interviews are a little boring. As long as he hits well and helps pirates win. I don’t care about his interviews.

Endy!

Good to see no sun flower seeds during interviews.....grown up coaches....maybe.

Vogey may be our best coaching add. Think he might teach Shelton a thing or two. Seems to be next to him in the dugout. Might be good to distract Shelton during the game, keep him out of the D-making.

Oh good, been wanting to see Ramirez on the bump.

Yeah looked very good. Tough BP choices to make.

Tigers stacked the lineup with 7 lefties and Jones did well other than the back to back 4 pitch walks.

The 2 seamer and change played well vs the lefties. He also threw a few curves

Bae is such a bad base runner when you consider his speed, bad leads, bad jumps, etc…..

Bad everything!

Go Davis, I’m one of his biggest critics, but of course I want him to succeed.

Expand full comment

He can't hit 98, so Jobe throws him offspeed?? We'll take it!

Jackson Jobe hung that pitch a little more than I originally thought but still impressive nonetheless for Davis to get down to that and hit it out the park. No-doubter.

Expand full comment

I liked that Davis was able to hold back and not yank it foul.

Expand full comment

Yep. Him being to wait on that was super impressive

Expand full comment

Good for Davis

After a rough start, it ended up being a good outing for Jared Jones.

Hung a couple of change ups but like the commitment to throwing it and the curve.

A four pitch (plus the sinker) Jared Jones could be super scary
