    I feel like a kid at Christmas. I have been waiting for this moment for what seems like forever. Taking afternoon off, cracking a beer.

    Swanson got a hit in each of the last 2 games and 0 Ks, and sits vs the lhp. Don't really like this move. I understand Swanson has been struggling, but he showed a little life this weekend... let em face the lefty of the marlins and hopefully get going some

    I see Pablo Lopez (RHP) as the starting pitcher for the Marlins. The L on the lineup card indicates he bats from the left side.

    I'm glad I asked

    I expect to see an amped up Touki throwing 97+ early, probably a bit wild...or maybe completely lights out filth.

    I expect to see Touki settle in at ~94 with 9"+ VMov and ~5" arm side HMov on the FA.

    I expect to see the CU have 7"+ of sink and ~3" of glove side movement, basically Fried's from the other side.

    I expect to see Touki flash a CH vs LHHs that is good enough that we can dream on it, but only thrown a handful of times.

    I expect to see wildness, but not the "miss the zone by 3 feet" kind we tend to see from Newk...typical 22 year old wildness.

    This is a perfect opportunity for Touki....a relatively weak lineup to face in his big league debut

    Nice to see someone told Snit that Camargo can't play SS.

    tried to get realmuto to bite at that curve (or get it called a strike) 3 times before getting him to pop out with a 96MPH fastball.
    touki is going to be fun #GoodCop

    92 FA outside
    92 FA outside
    94 FA outside, called strike
    95 FA outside corner, grounded to 3b

    94 FA outer half, strike
    76 CU, hung middle/middle, fly out weakly to RF

    95 FA, outside corner
    96 FA, up and away, fouled off
    78 CU, up and in
    77 CU, just off the plate down and away
    77 CU, outside
    96 FA, middle/middle, pop up

    FA looks as advertised, and he was likely aiming it a bit to start the game.

    CU is more of a sweeper than the downer I expected, but appears legit.

    Command is as good as you can reasonably expect from a 22 year old in his MLB debut not named Soroka.
