Gameday Thread 2/25/20: Reds @ Angels. Almost complete lineup

[rafibomb]

It looks like Suarez has more zip to his fastball. I'm really curious to know how hard he may have been throwing today.

Any idea of the velo that our guys were throwing today, @Jeff Fletcher?

Jose Mota just said on the broadcast that Taylor Ward was supposed to be another piece of the nixed trade with the Dodgers.

[krAbs]

One of the announcers just casually mentioned that we almost traded Ward to the Dodgers in that nixed trade...did we know that? I don't remember seeing it anywhere.

It was mentioned somewhere buried in those 100+ pages but never verified

With Fletcher now in No. 22, it looks like the Angels book is forever closed on Kaleb. BBR page says nobody has picked him up. May not even be a formal retirement?

He moved to Montana and is living in Brandon Wood's basement.

Yes, we did.  It is the collective we that didn’t include me.  Sorry for the confusion.

I closed it. You can view everything in the thread, you just can't post in it anymore unless you're a mod or admin. 

Really, there's no reason to comment any further on a trade that fell through. 

Maybe if Rengifo and/or Ward have big seasons we'll re-open it for @Lou to bump with some fresh updates!

Bedrock on the bump.

i thought the goal was to keep it open until it reached 100 pages, which it did even though the thread was in the low 90's when it was canceled. lol

I see Bedrosian is already in mid-season form.
