abdcskins Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Disgusting. Schoop was way too anxious there, at least he seemed like it with that first swing. Hate to see the bullpen get taxed like this the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjfootballer Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Adam “Bomb” to win it. I know I’m late. Was at work and then the gym. Recorded the game. Just got done watching. A few observations: 1. Great quality start from Bundy. Need more of that all season from the starters. 2. Roster is STILL top heavy. Not a lot of speed. 3. Buck played small ball in ST, but is afraid to in the RS. Caleb played small ball twice and it was nice (triple in the gap and bunt) 4. WTF Brad? Seriously! First game and you can’t get it done. The first person to say “trade Zach” should get a foot up their ass. Good closers ARE valuable and not a dime a dozen. 5. Feel for Bundy. The win was his. Should’ve never gotten to extras. 6. Still enjoying the win on Opening Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Great win. Harder than it needed to be. Really impressed with Bundy. I know when he was coming up he was throwing high 90s but even if he's at 92-93 right now it doesn't matter if he can locate and spin his breaking stuff like he did today. He had some starts like this last year, he also had some starts where he got bombed. Just needs to be more consistent and he can be a top of the rotation starter.

The team was 16-12 in his starts last year. I think he will have an even better number this year. (Gaus 16-18, Miley 14-17, Ubaldo 13-18, Tillman 8-11, Hellickson 4-6, Asher 1-5, Ynoa 2-4. Woof.)

I know he had a lower than average Babip and pitched better than some of his numbers indicate. But Bundy’s “cutter” (slutter) is something to behold. Not because it zips across the zone like Scherzer, but because it’s indistinguishable from his fastball until the last few feet. It’s like they’ve put a hamster tunnel from his hand to 6 feet from the plate. That means more weak fly balls as guys can’t barrel it. When that pitch isn’t working, he gets hit hard. That’s probably why he had so many 0,1,2 ER starts and several 6 and 7s on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I understand the off day at the beginning of the season to account for early season bad weather, but why not put the off day in between series instead of interrupting a series? Takes the steam out of opening day with an immediate off day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Ugh. Sano got a lucky call on what should have been strike three then pow, HR. Blah. 1-0 Twins. I like Sano though. He always looks like he’s going to hit one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
