He was even serviceable his first year with the Yankees. I covered games featuring a school that Brown was assisting at a few years ago. His son was playing, but wasn't considered a prospect.

Bartolo Colon to the DL with the ol left side strain. That may become a career ending injury.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:I feel like Dansby should be hitting seventh by now, give him a reward for improving and a few more opportunities to learn a pitcher instead of getting IBBed pretty frequently. Snitker moved him up to second for a day or two when he got his average over .200 the first time and he started sucking again. Dansby's fine where he is right now.

elentar posted:Sort of expecting Newcomb to get a baptism by fire, the knocks on him are makeup as well as command when the makeup slips. He'll be a good rotation arm, but whether he's a #2 or a #4/5 depends on if he can keep control of his poo poo. I'll take what Newcomb did today any day.

STAC Goat posted:As a fellow lifelong baseball fan and lover of pitching, who has spent his entire life listening to retired pitchers talk and watching current pitchers act I'm pretty sure its always been the case that pitchers are hypocritical self righteous assholes who think you should never watch a 450 ft home run to see if it leaves the stadium but think its totally ok to but a 95 MPH fastball under a batter's chin if he offends you. I've got an old book of sports quotes and Early Wynn said if these young whippersnappers of [whatever current time that was] showboated against him, he'd hit them with a pitch in the dugout. Somebody else said that Freddie Fitzsimmons got him with a brushback pitch in the on deck circle. And, of course, Juan Marichal, which built because Marichal was insulted by a base hit bunt.

humpthewind posted:Is bartolo injured or cooked? Could he pitch out of the bullpen Cooked. I wouldn't mind him out of the pen as I figure he couldn't be worse than Ian Krol.
