I've noticed Maddon batting Rizzo in the 2 spot in some games so there must be something to it.
I think I've seen some Maddon = genius threads here before.
Catching Shields during the regular season is different than spring training. Hope the cubbies fans don't expect the same type numbers he put up in spring.
I like all the news feeds here... Don't have do bounce around different sites looking for articles and can very easily pass up articles I have no interest in.
While I'm wasting my time with you in this non-feeling thread, I'm watching MLB Tonight and I have to say Byrnes is a dork... Says he doesn't consider Trout a superstar. Dork!
The flow is much easier to become a flood when the opposing pitcher is a scrub and the opposition makes some poor defensive plays.
I'm ready for the boys to start pounding some respectable pitchers.
Just starting a little conversation with myself in this non-feeling auto-post thread.
Thanks!
You're welcome!
