Cactus League Game Thread, 3/14/2010

Scenic Tucson! I remember the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum being pretty neat when I was nine. It may still be neat now. Those crazy javelinas… Anyway, Tucson is not much of a place to go for baseball these days. The Sidewinders moved out to Reno and became the Aces, and now the Golden [...]

The Catching Situation

On the pre-game show Saturday, Shannon Drayer noted that we may have our first winner of a job in spring training – she feels Adam Moore has done enough to solidify his spot on the opening day roster. The presumption heading into spring training was that Josh Bard or Guillermo Quiroz would be paired [...]

Cactus League Game Thread, 3/15/2010

The last game in Tucson for the foreseeable future, barring any Japanese teams using it for training or anything of that sort. Not a whole lot of nostalgia in the local press about the departure. In fact, the only note I really have from the papers is that, as a rider to Dave’s [...]

Mobile’s up

This weekend I seem to have finally figured out the somewhat magical combination of cache settings and back-end stuff to get the mobile site up without setting fire to people’s desktops or administering electric shocks via their phones. There’s two outstanding bug reports and for some ridiculous reason the Stede Bonnet flag doesn’t work yet, [...]

New Users: Please Be Patient

Hey folks, a quick moderation note: We’re currently in the midst of fending off a simply disgusting amount of comment spam from people trying to sell knockoff shoes, etc. (I think I’ve gotten rid of something on the order of 100 comments in the last few days) Until it subsides, please understand that any comments from a [...]

The Middle Infield Problem

When people talk about the weaknesses on the M’s, they’ll usually point to the obvious; the offense is below average and everyone knows it. Occasionally, someone will talk about the back of the rotation, which may or may not be a problem depending on how guys like Snell and Vargas pitch. But, I [...]

Cliff Lee Suspended

MLB’s selectively enforced rules strike again – they have reportedly suspended Cliff Lee for five games, which may or may not end up being the first five games of the season, depending on who you believe. Lee, as you’ll remember, threw a couple of pitches near Chris Snyder’s head the other day, and baseball [...]

First TV game Cactus League Game

The M’s are playing the Rangers tonight, and FSN (and MLB.tv if you’re a subscriber) is carrying it, so you can actually watch the team play. The M’s are running out what should be their regular line-up against RHPs, at least to begin the season. 1. Ichiro, RF 2. Figgins, 2B 3. Bradley, LF 4. Griffey, DH 5. Lopez, [...]

Saunders Sent Down

Not much of a surprise here, as the writing was on the wall once the team traded for Milton Bradley, but Michael Saunders was sent to minor league camp today and will begin the season with Triple-a Tacoma. With Bradley and Byrnes expected to split time in left, there just weren’t going to many [...]

Another televised Cactus League game

The M’s are playing the Rockies this afternoon, and FSN is picking up the feed from Fox Sports Rocky Mountain to get this game on TV. The line-up is mostly reserves, but Ryan Rowland-Smith takes the hill, so tune if if you’d like to cheer on The Hyphen. CF Patterson LF Byrnes 1B Garko DH Sweeney 2B [...]
