    relax people. jeez some of you guys are panicking already. there are on a 103 win pace. no need to sign or trade for anyone just yet. plenty of time for that.
    Who here is panicking? We’ve all been saying they need an additional pitcher since the end of last season...
    I'm not panicking. I'm more frustrated than anything. But yeah we still need to add at least one solid pitcher to the roster.
    That's my point. The lineup is among the absolute best in baseball. But everyone has been saying we need to bolster the rotation and I fully expect them to do so, one way or the other, at some point....

    Opening the shore house this weekend! Friggen pumped.  I love this city in the summer. I think its a blast, but with a baby, there are less and less things to do.  Extremely excited for this summer.

    At least they did away with that awful sculpture thing and lime green walls. 

    Still bugs me that theyve got two titles.

    Still the best offense baseball has ever seen? Or do we finally admit it’s a 162 game season?

    Nice.  I'm still fighting off buying a place in Ocean City.  
    Wife wants a vacation home and not an investment.  
    I can afford one but not the other.  Good on you for being able to swing a vacation home!

    I said after the first game. His command is just not there yet. Velocity seems to be fine though.

    Which to me is less of a concern - control over velocity.  If it was the other way around then I'd be concerned. His floor should be a #2, ceiling being a #1, and he more than blasted through the ceiling last season.

    I'd say the concern as a whole this year is the rotation, then the bench/offensive depth, then the bullpen. Though Robertson already going to the injured list is pretty annoying.

    I would be really concerned about Nola depending on where he is once he gets to ~8-10 starts.

    Agreed. And he's not the only ace struggling early this year but still, it's a wee bit concerning...

    When's Tommy Hunter coming back?

    When I was like 7 or 8 years old, I caught a foul ball off of Dysktra (alright fine, I didn't catch it, but I chased it down after it bounced off some seats), and a few weeks later, I got Von to autograph it during pregame warm-ups

    Last night was only the 6th time in major league history a starting pitcher faced as many as 8 batters who all scored and didn't record an out.  pretty crazy.  Matz's era went from 1-something to the high 4s.  

    it's really nice to see Kingery hitting when he gets his chances.  gives you some more options.  seems like Williams might be on his way out though.  I like his bat off the bench but i guess have to make room for Quinn.

    and yes Herrera still drives me crazy.
