Pitch clock is awesome. Stopped to grab food and the game was in the 5th. Ordered my wings. Got my wings 15 mins later and it was the 7th inning. Ate and game was over. Took about an hour from 6th til last pitch. **** awesome.

How were the wings? Wet or dry? Rub and/or sauce?

I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

A fun lineup today with all 3 rookies. I'm hoping this will essentially be our everyday lineup just swapping Caritini for Contreras. Atleast until Taylor & Urias come back

I'd love for the lineups to not be a revolving door this year but I know it's asking a lot.

They will be, Counsell loves to keep all his guys getting somewhat consistent at bats. Usually everyone plays atleast once a week if not more

Was thinking the same thing ! Maybe because I'm a fan of the crew it just seems we do it more than other team , maybe if you ask fans of other teams its the same . one thing I'm pretty sure is that Sundays is experimention time , will not ever go to a Sunday game.

I know the sheen may eventually wear off, but I'm so excited right now to see the new guys do literally anything that I'm hyped for this year regardless of the results.

Of course, as I'm typing this, Mitchell tries to score on an infield hit with nobody out. Lol.

This is a lot more fun when they’re actually stringing together baserunners and scoring some runs

If these 3 plus Churio and Frelick can all hit that likely is the fastest lineup in baseball.

It’s a pretty good defensive group to. Super excited about that core.

Yeah this team is fun to watch with a bunch of young, super fast, good defending players in the mix.

Yelich transitioning to an opposite field hitter the year the shift is taken away is surely interesting. I think he has a chance to raise his value substantially.
