I'm guessing this one's mostly a B squad game, being after a night game and on the road. Probably not televised

Edit:
Mussina vs. Hudson

Damon
Jeter
Cano
Giambi
Sardinha
Chavez
Reese
Nieves

Based on what you've seen so far in ST, who do you want see the 4th outfielder if Melky has to start due to injury (like if Abreu isn't ready for opening day, for example?)
Kevin Reese or Kevin Thompson? Or maybe Sardinha?

simmy886
03-08-07, 12:38 PM
I think it will be KT because of his toolsy-ness (bunting, pop, speed) but Reese and Sardinha have been impressive as well.

Jace
03-08-07, 12:39 PM
Double, 2 flyouts, inning over

simmy886
03-08-07, 12:40 PM
If the Braves are gonna compete with Mets and Phillies, they need Hudson and Hampton to rebound. It is completely possible, imo, although unlikely that both have 30+ starts of solid pitching.

Jace
03-08-07, 12:40 PM
I think it will be KT because of his toolsy-ness

Well, he's a better hitter and baserunner than Reese, I'm guessing he's a better fielder. Sardinha should probably play an entire season at AAA so he can get a full season of at-bats just in case he develops enough to be a major league hitter (I dont think he's a very good fielder)

Jace
03-08-07, 12:42 PM
JD single (after Mussina flyout)

Right I agree. How is KT defensively?
Unfortunately neither KT nor Sardinha have succeeded yet at the AAA level, hopefully this is the year and we get some outfield depth in our system so we can have the same type of reinforcements as last year when Guiel and Bernie stepped up and produced like adequate major leaguers (as opposed to a guy like Andy Phillips, although that's another position altogether)

I get the feeling he has good range and makes ok reads, but is erratic. Should be fine in the corner positions, solid arm. Probably average to below average in CF. I'm not an expert on this, someone else could tell you better

IMO Unless someone did a scientific, convincing study, your opinion is as good as anyone's. I actually see the same thing. My perception tells me he's a bit like Cano, he can make some nice plays and then some ugly ones. I haven't seen enough of him yet though.

Proctor being pinch hit for by Doug, definitely a new pitcher next inning

simmy886
03-08-07, 01:17 PM
Doug is still hitless right?

Jace

Haha, hard times for Doug. Probably fouled the ball off his foot and its called fair and hes out

Man, I really like Josh Phelps. I guess thats the general concensus around here though.

simmy886
03-08-07, 01:20 PM
Doug will probably stay in at first and sit Giambi in a double switch with a new pitcher, limit Giambi's innings in the field.

simmy886
03-08-07, 01:21 PM
Man, I really like Josh Phelps. I guess thats the general concensus around here though.

He absolutely mashed AAA. The only question about him is his defense right? Assuming he wins the RH-platoon spot over Phillips, on days when he plays, will he DH and Giambi play 1B or will he play 1B and Giambi DH?

I'd have to say... that if the managers were smart... Giambi would play the field and Phelps will DH...
Phelps has DH'ed his whole career if the team attempted to play him...
Since like 2001? I think... I don't think he has played over 120 games in the field.

justinvarnes
03-08-07, 01:26 PM
Seems like DeSalvo's FB is a little flat. Slight tailing action (in to righties) but not alot of movement this outing.

Either he threw alot of changeups, his velocity was WAY down on his FB, or the gun was off, but he threw alot of pitches that registered at 84-86MPH.

Curve looked really good though.

He missed locations a bit. balls tailed back across the plate.

jimmykey2
03-08-07, 01:28 PM
Now we can see what's wrong with DeSalvo... with that motion there's literally no way he could throw two consecutive pitches in the same spot.

His arm slot is different on every pitch.

simmy886
03-08-07, 01:28 PM
120 games in the field in his career total that is.

Yeah it'll be interesting, because I don't think Giambi's as big a negative in the field as people say. He scoops the ball out pretty well. He has range and throwing issues, but in general how important is first base defense anyway?

NobodysBoss
03-08-07, 01:30 PM

He had a couple up but overall I think he was satisfied with the work he did. I think he really loved the flyball he hit.

True, however I think the impetus for Giambi DH-ing is the wear and tear on his body.

Its pretty important. I hold my breath when Giambi has to turn two. It never seems like its going to happen.

Jace
03-08-07, 01:32 PM
I thought the movement on DeSalvo's fastball was really good. He showed an ok change, ok slider, and pretty good curve in the inning. However, he had no command of anything (typical of him), and the ump therefore gave him nothing close, so he fell behind every batter. His stuff is fine, but he can't get by anywhere with that lack of control

yankeebot
03-08-07, 01:33 PM
Giambi's offense waaaaaay counterbalances any defensive flaws. That said, he needs to DH so that he can keep those knees strong. That is why he is trying to use the opposite field. He needs his knees strong to be able to stay back. He's not been able to do that the past few years.

35Knucklecurve

Yea but there was like a 50 point difference in his batting average when he wasn't playing the field. We just need to get him comfortable with sitting on the bench for an hour or so at a clip before he gets a chance to do something.

That's not so true if you take out all the times he was the DH solely because he was injured. And even he finally admitted last year that he can learn to DH.

No doubt. I bet there are people who think, "That's all he's got to do..." but don't realize that playing is an adrenaline rush that should be kept at a higher level than sitting on a bench.

I don't doubt that Giambi will settle in with this. As you point out it's not something he hasn't experienced before and I think Giambi has the mindset to adapt to DH as a fulltime role.

The bigger issue with Jason is him not getting hurt playing the field.

If Phelps gets hurt, while I'll feel bad for him, it won't really kill the team. With no Jason there's a big difference.

Cannizaro showed nice range to get to the grounder, and it's a 1-2-3 for Bean.

As I said, it's going very quickly.

Tell, tell, tell Pop up...triangle of fielders...possible collision..makes the one handed play while getting his legs caught up with another fielder.

Very smooth.

That's it? Maybe he looks like a giant standing next to Harris (who might be a tad smallish). The guy looks tall and lanky.
Truthfully I don't remember him much when he was with Toronto. I would love him to force his way onto the roster.

I hope so. Even if the guy is only to start/pinch hit against lefties, it would make me feel a little more confident with the first base situation.
