That looked high IMO on Weeks...

[DHonks]

come on Weeks, that was right down the middle, mid thigh

[Vgmastr]

WGN's on-screen graphic: "Richie Weeks" Can no one get his name right??

[Duff Man21]

My heart was in my throat when Krynzel did his faceplant.

 

And...Richie Weeks?

 

Grrrrrrr

[ja002h]

First off, you're not supposed to slide into first base; and secondly, that was way too early.

 

He tripped. Not on purpose.

[ja002h]

Wow, Prince is a big boy.

[DHonks]

That looked high IMO on Weeks...

 

it was below his waist.

[mothershipconnection]

This is sooooooo friggin sweet. First time I've gotten to see Prince (and any of the other kids) in action.

Well Ueck agreed with me so therehttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[DHonks]

now to see the mechanical changes for Hendrickson...

-last year his bottom and top halves weren't together. Watch...his motion from start to peak of leg kick is slower and more controlled. Arms aren't flailing...glove closer to body, much tighter looking

[ja002h]

Yeah, I saw it. I wasn't serious.

 

My bad. Carry on..http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

Almost a leadoff dinger there...

[brewers19]

Leadoff triple?!!!

[DHonks]

see, and the mechanics really do wonders as they make him throw meaty fastballs above the belt

[ja002h]

Nomar's OCD is so annoying.

[don1481]

mmm... meat...http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

[Duff Man21]

I wonder if WGN's baseball blog has more info on Richie Weeks.....

[DHonks]

has Ben gotten a non-heater near the plate?

 

edit, well, that hanger was over the plate. Still, it has about 1/3rd the break that we saw last year

[ja002h]

Yeah, that's a goner.

 

Ben looks absolutely horrible.

[Duff Man21]

Yeah....and it just ended up in the stands.

[brewers19]

Okay, now there's the homer.

[don1481]

See baseball.

 

See baseball fly.

 

See Glover go into the rotation.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/mad.gif

 

Hanging curve... ugh.

[ja002h]

It feels like Ben's going to be the definition of a AAAA player.

[squarepusher]

This ball was gone:

As seem to be Ben's chance of breaking with the big league club in April.

[Duff Man21]

See baseball.

 

See baseball fly.

 

See Glover go into the rotation.
