Cleveland Commodores sounds pretty sweet. I like the alliterative name, and branding could be epic.

I did a break down of the season on how many games we will play against each team.

White Sox, Tigers, Royals, Twins - 10 each

Pirates - 6

Reds and Cubs - 4 each

Cards and Brewers - 3 each

Go Tribe. 


Saw highlights of the Phillies/Nationals game yesterday in DC. Even though it was spring training, it was representative since it was in a big league park. Really weird hearing the sounds of the game with no crowd.

So is the OF: Mercado in center, DomSatana in Left, platoon Naquin/Luplow in right?  Bauers & Allen on the bench?

Reyes DH-ing in tonights game.

RF- Naquin
CF- Mercado
LF- Zimmer

This is the OF for tonight. With a 30 man roster they could carry 9 outfielders because they have a lot of OF pieces but nobody is really standing out.

Id like to see Zimmer, if healthy, get a shot. Weve seen flashes, and he brings as good of a glove as Allen, but with more pop and much better wheels. Plus his arm...my God. LF seems like a waste of his best talent, tbh.

Zimmer with a good night. Lindor and Luplow with homers. Nice to finally be able to watch

Agree. Mercado was pretty bad at LF though and his arm sucks for RF. I don’t know if Zimmer can slide to RF, but that seems like a great combo. Or just tell Mercado to learn to play fucking LF lol

At some point the brass has to realize that Mercado has a left fielder's arm.


Shouĺd've been playing in left during the winter, spring, and now.

I realize that DomSantana is a bit of liability in the field, but are they going to give his strong bat limited ABs?

Given the short 60 game season and the number of decent OF's I can see them playing whoever matches up with the pitching matchups.

What’s going on with DeShields?

I see he’s not on the roster. (40 man)
