@dubv01 @SeanManning_1 Yes I know but when a pitcher can throw over to first 10 times an at bat and a coach can change pitchers after every batter - those are MAJOR differences that kills the pace.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@dubv01 @SeanManning_1 No they don't. With runners on base, CBB pitchers can throw to a base as many time as they want. MLB just 2 disengagements. MLB - 3 batter minimum for relief pitchers. CBB can change after 1 batter.

@DM_Shirley why not do like the NCAA basketball tournament - the higher seed is always the home team.

@CJNitkowski And no "painted" coaches boxes. Just cutouts for the coaches.

@OnyxOdds Yankees should only be Elite, if that high. No World Series championships.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@AKC_Central That game won’t start at 10:00. Liberty & Mo State was suspended last night and will resume in the 6th at 9:00. Jax State plays the winner approximately 45 minutes after.

@mlbbowman At least Strider gets the day game where the temperature is supposed to be in the 70’s instead of the 30’s Friday night or 40’s Saturday night.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@ChoppinBravos Because Detroit brought in a left handed pitcher, so Walt went with the right handed bat in Farmer. Strictly a righty-lefty thing.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@RichieEGrogan @mlbbowman I may be wrong but I think Mateo is out of options. He’d have to pass through waivers before being sent to AAA. Someone would pick him up.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@ATL14ESQ @stacheofstrider @ChopAbusador Strider is being activated this weekend to pitch in cold Colorado. Saw that earlier.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@ChikinChop @A_Huffstutler I don't even think Mateo is in the conversation to be going anywhere.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@jase1129 So will Heim go when Murphy returns or will he stay to make sure Murphy is healthy and Farmer is out? Then when Kim returns that should be enough time to assure Murphy is good. Then you can let Heim go.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@theofficialjren @extraORRdINary @BeaneaterB Yes

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@jase1129 Fuentes back to Gwinnett. Richie up. They'll still be without Perez (3IP tonight, Suares 3 IP last night) tomorrow.

[Ricky Smith @boazstatguy]

@Tim_Brindle @mlbbowman My guess is Fuentes is optioned back to Gwinnett. With him and Perez going three tonight and Suarez three last night that's three arms down.

@TalkoftheTownFB The mercy rule has been in effect for several years, except for the State Finals.
