Approach, transfer and throw were all not very good on that play by Wallace.

I thought that it was a bit nonchalant for a play on a swift leadoff hitter.

Just based on listening, it sounds like basic fundamentals would be a big stride forward for this club.

Pretty typical Bedard game line- 5 8 3 2 2 6 109 pitches and a lot of 3-2 counts.

The fucking Blue Jays are fucking with my head in the ninth inning. I had already put that win in the bank. But Johnson, who has lost seven games as a closer at the ASB. I smell a fucking rat.

No, I wasted 5.2 innings by starting Perez (actually, failing to remove him from the start) against Verlander.

A cool 56 point performance by Archer today. Lincecum's no-hitter was 60 points.

I didn't see much of the game, but I saw some A-baller in the Rockies org throw two strikes at 97-98, and then throw a changeup for strike three that just exploded down and in to the right-handed batter. Poor kid never had a chance.

I enjoyed the game. It was fun to see springer. He didn't have great results but still flashed his skills. That foul ball he crushed in the first was a formidable display of bat speed. His IF BH was a good show of foot speed. He's not as much of a hacker as I expected. He laid off close balls, but he swings as hard as he can every swing.

I posted this in the qc thread on the bus ride but thought I'd post it here too...


A couple of tweets about Correa from people at the Futures Game today...

Ben Badler @BenBadler
No power shortage in BP for Carlos Correa. Guy is gonna be a monster in a few years.10:40 AM - 14 Jul 2013

Kiley McDaniel ?@kileymcd 8h
Scout sitting with me agrees Carlos Correa was star of BP. Loose, athletic, some projection and current above average raw power.
