Gameday Open Thread / Giants @ Cubs

Submitted by Rob G. on
I see the spring training schedule makers are just as whack as the regular season ones. The Cubs and Giants square-off for the third time this young Cactus Leage season with Ted Lilly slated to start against Matt Cain.

OK how do I get to parachat now? [too dumb to do my taxes too.] Santo, after Pie homer: Felix is more erect at the plate. I guess *guys* dig the long ball?

Hendry's Comments during the ballgame today: Hendry said, DeRosa is back...maybe a week before he plays in a game though [Quade does it again]...he was working with Soriano on using both hands to catch flyballs. Result: Soriano took a ball off the tip of his barehand. Marquis "story" not even a story...he was caught in an interview situation where anything he said would be wrong. If he said he was okay with going to the bullpen it would sound like he wasn't really ready to compete for a spot in the rotation. He told Lou when he arrived that Theriot was the kind of player he would love. It took a while but he does. Thinks Kosuke is already a "good fit" with the Cubs. And reiterated how the Cubs organization had been enamored with Fukudome since the Olympics.

ugg...my head still cant read the new site quickly and figure out the flow. oddly...or not...ive grown be able to read the msg's as a linear mass rather than nested comments by topic within threads. it doesnt help that when people go offtopic they dont change the subject. took a while to get used to the last MVN change so i'll "get it" one day. oddly its taking me more time to figure out the flow of things. also soriano's expected to return within a week or less according to da' paper.

okay...i think its the font that's bugging me after skimming quickly through old-TCR and new-TCR. this is a more rounded font on the new site...also thinner/lighter. or it might be slightly smaller or less expressed, but the same font. i dunno, im not an expert in design/art/fonts/etc. either way i think that's one of the things keeping me from scanning it. the old site had a similar sans-serif font style, but it seemed to present itself bolder. *shrug*

I agree with Crunch; the new font is lighter and harder to scan through than the old. If you increase the font as Rob G suggested ('Ctl +' for PC) then it is better, but it doesn't "scan" as well. Good thing crunch, carlosrubi and I aren't calling balls and strikes! Trying to remember to reply to the specific comment so I posted this again.

Hey Crunch: Have you tried switching to the flat view via the drop down at the top of the comments? It presents the comments in linear order. It can still be confusing sometimes when people using the threaded view respond directly to other comments w/o quoting or referencing, but it's certainly readable.

My turn to be the TCR team "doctor," maybe, though I don't even play one on TV. My kid had the DeRosa condition and the same fix, but this was almost ten years ago, thus it is much more routine now than "state of the art" anymore. My guess is this was supraventricular tachycardia (SVT), which is not atrial fibrillation nor Wolf-Parkinson-White. I had several "episodes" of it myself when a teen, so there is probably a genetic component for propensity. It is disconcerting, but not immediately life-threatening, unless you persist for several days with a pulse of 180-220 (not kidding), in which case they would use the meds to stave off cardiac arrest before it got that far. You do sorta feel weird, and want to sit down.

    I don’t buy that. They had been doing that for years.

    They did it with Matt Holliday. They did it with John Lackey. They did it with Mark Mulder. They did it with Jason Heyward, who had a great year for them. I’m sure there’s more but those come to mind immediately.

    I attribute it more to a breakdown in what they’re doing in terms of development than a culture thing.

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    They won those trades and sacrificed their culture. That’s exactly their problem.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    The other part that’s kind of crazy is they made two very high profile trades, one for Goldschmidt and one for Arenado, and they very clearly won those trades. They just haven’t been able to develop players the last handful of years the way they usually do.

    I guess the moral there is it’s hard to stay on top of your game and be good at what you do in perpetuity.

    Marmol was extended at the beginning of the year. Two years I believe.

    Craig Counsell doesn’t have a timetable for Cody Bellinger who technically has two cracked ribs on his right side. CT scan showed it today.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    Thought it might have been David Peralta given the open 40 man spot and how PCA has played so far. 

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    I hope they keep Mozeliak a few more years. Marmol too!

  • crunch (view)

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

  • crunch (view)

    welp...

    bellinger...fractured rib.

    a not-very-ready PCA will probably be called up when it would be much better for him to be in AAA getting regular ABs.
