    Guessing the marriage is over for Cespedes and NY. Odds he ends up in Miami?

    And we haven't even had Will Smith yet.

    AA knows how to build a roster
    Very impressed with his subtle depth moves that have really lengthened the team.

    I think he might be done. Broken, ineffective and unprofessional. No team is going to give him a roster spot.

    The pen is deeeeeep as hell.

    Minter/Matzek/Tomlin/Luke/O'Day/Greene/MM/Martin/Will Smith. That's a legit 9-deep when healthy.

    I may be completely delusional but I can't help but wonder if we wouldn't have another championship or two if we'd have had a pen of this depth and quality during the days of Glavine, Maddux, and Smoltz.

    I think our pen is even deeper than that. We have Walker and a few others that would be fine in there

    Slider with good bite at 83 in, but not down and in enough to put the hitter away.

    Change ups that appear plus to the eye test, but he didn’t execute the first 2 on the outer edge to induce a swing. Then he executes the 3rd change on the outer edge to get the K.

    The parts are there, he’s just missing that fine tuning in the execution to be truly effective. If/when he figures that out he will be a nice 2-3 with potential for more depending on how the control progresses.
    Change didn't seem to drop much.

    Vertical movement on pitches other than good breaking balls is hard to judge on tv. The pitch appeared to have good arm side fade and a velocity delta from the fastball of about 8 mph.

    Wright should have like 125 pitches worth of 2020 data available to check out tomorrow.

    I’ve been super impressed with the non long relief bullpen so far. They’ve been excellent.
