The late night SoCal road show moves on to San Diego, Carrasco vs. Snell. First pitch on SNY is 9:40 PM. First “I'll just close my eyes for a couple of pitches…zzz…” is a matter of personal inclination.

I think the San Diego games are starting a half hour earlier, at 9:40 PM EDT - so maybe an extra inning or two before the closing of the eyes…

Thanks Padres for the extra half-hour of hopefully ending Snell.

The next game that I'll hope to see the conclusion of, live, will not be until Sunday. So that's shitty.

This one is a MLBN "Showcase Game", outside of the NY area, with Stephen Nelson, Yonder Alonso, Cliff Floyd, CC Sabathia. I'm not familiar with Stephen Nelson but he is also the PBP person for Friday's game against the LAA exclusively on Apple+ (Stephen Nelson, Katie Nolan, Hunter Pence, & Heidi Watney).

89 pitches for Snell just to get thru 4 innings.

Basically about 50% more than you'd like to throw at that point of the game.

Going by feet/second in 2022, and taking "right now" quite literally literally, you're quite right.



1) Jankowski: 28.9

Alfaro: 28.7

2) Nimmo: 28.6

3) Marte: 28.4

4) Lindor: 27.6

5) Escobar: 27.5

6) Canha: 27.3

7) Davis, J.D: 26.7

8) McNeil: 26.6

9) Smith: 26.4

10) Guillorme: 26.1

11) McCann: 25.8

12) Nido: 25.3

13) Alonso: 25.2

14) Mazeika: 23.8



I guess, in theory, Nick Plummer can keep up with him, as we don't have sufficient data on Nick, but that's damned impressive.

I disagree with Keith and Gary — a guy bunting for a hit with advancing himself as the residual effect deserves credit for the sacrifice bunt.

It's a matter of taste, of course, but I'll take Gary/Keith over Gary/Ron if we can't have GKR in full. I enjoy the unpredictability.
