Yeah, it's just pre-season, but the Padres are up on the M's 26-4 in the 8th.

I believe you until this. Walker can't hit a line drive.

He smashed a 100 mph FB for a hit just the other day.

What game was that in? Fangraphs only shows him with 3 games played (2/26, 2/28, and 3/2) and he has 8 PAs, 1 BB, 1 K and no hits.

I think it was against Venezuela so it doesn't get counted in the normal spring training stats

If any one wants free club tix for the noon Mex vs UK tomorrow I have 2 sets of 2. Lemme know.

I've never once in the past or will in the future be concerned about ST stats.

You shouldn't either. They mean absolutely nothing.

---

Okay since you say so I shouldn't be concerned either.

Has a guy that played 154 games and led the team in RBI ever been more hated?

Lets not act like leading the 2025 Astros in RBI is a big deal.

Jose Abreu had more RBI in 2023 and we can all agree he was horrible.

Yet no one else could drive in more. I might be crazy but there were problems other than him.

He got out OPS'd by Jake Meyers and his 3 homeruns. (Walker was 9th in OPS)

Walker was not good at all. Now I hope and think he will have a bounce back year in 2026. But RBI don't tell the story of how his season went

Last I checked, you still win games by scoring more runs than the other team, so the ability to drive runners in is still pretty important, especially when others aren't getting it done.

Pretty close to leaving Fubo for YoutubeTV. How has the SCHN Stream been for those with it? I split Fubo with other family members and it had been great but now we're getting stream limits reached when 2 people are watching it. For YoutubeTV + SCHN it's about the same price as we pay now.

Do you guys with YTTV have any complaints?

Peña credited the Team Dominican Republic athletic trainers with recommending he leave the exhibition game after his at-bat “even though I was telling them that I felt good. Which I think was smart – good job on their part.” https://t.co/8Et8A1ToJx

I like YTTV's interface and functionality much better than Fubo's. The last couple years, I did Fubo during baseball season and switched back to YTTV in the off season. I haven't subscribed yet, but I'll likely add SCHN and keep YTTV for this season. I'd be curious in hearing any feedback on the SCHN+ stream.

I'll try it for this season, but I'm one of those people that likes to see what else is on TV during commercial breaks. I may get frustrated by not being able to do that easily since I'll have to switch between apps.

97.1 EV
13 LA
.950 xBA
The pitch was 100.4

He also walked and struck out that game.

Yainer had the hardest hit ball of the day at 110.5 (single), but a few others got close -- Correa at 108.0 (single), Smith at 107.5 (single), Wilyer Abreu off Javier 106.5 (triple) & Weiss 104.2 (single).

Some morning updates:

- Correa has stiff neck on his right side and was scratched from today's lineup.

- Garret Guillemette, Joseph Sullivan reassigned.

- Del Los Santos throws 1st bullpen tomorrow.

- Hader will throw bullpen early next week.

Stiff neck... This means elbow surgery right?

Welcome to the Nick Allen era at SS

CharleyKerfeld said:

You know it's going to be a great year when we're hyped about our 34-year-old first baseman having a hard hit ball in a scrimmage against Team Venezuela.

---

It's really not a big deal since among regulars, Walker was second to Yordan in average exit velo, hard hit percentage, and barrel percentage in 2025.

Probably the best defensive SS we've had since young Carlos Correa. No hate towards Pena, he's good, but I think Allen is a level up.

NEWS: John Carpino, Arte Moreno’s right-hand man, has informed the Angels that he will retire as the team’s president, ending a 23-year run with the organization, according to sources.

Molly Jolly, a longtime exec on the business side, will replace him April 6.

More to come.

It even sounds like a Mickey mouse operation over there

YTTV is the best streaming service out there. I plan to switch to the sports only package when it becomes available and then using the savings to buy SCHN+
