It’s only Spring Training. It’s only Spring Training.
17-11! We got torched 17-11!
These games don’t count. And it’s the first real game of the exhibition season.
But 17 runs! What about our vaunted pitching staff? They got torched! Yikes!
Nobody who pitched today is a threat to make the club in 2010. Ottavino had trouble with his control, but got through 2 innings unscathed.
Mather made an error! Rasmus botched fielding a ball then made a horrible throw! What about our defense? Yikes!!
It’s the first actual game. Guys are bound to be a little rusty. There not going to play at an August-level with 100 games under their belt.
But Freese went 0-3! Rasmus 0-2! I thought these guys could hit! Yikes!!!
Their timing is still off. Hitters usually take some time to get their timing squared away. Live pitching in game situations isn’t the same as taking BP or hitting off a tee.
But…. But….
It’s only Spring Training. It’s Only Spring Training.
But panicking is so much more fun and irrational!
