Matt Manning needs a solid start in a bad way. He wasn’t good at all the first time out.

[romad1]

Johnny Kane effect still 

[Edman85]

Female home plate ump in the Red Sox game, per the box score.

[IdahoBert]

So, are the pitchers way ahead of the hitters at this time of year?

Torkelson breaks the Kane curse.  2-0

[Tigermojo]

Tork bomb is encouraging.

[IdahoBert]

[romad1]

Maeda navigated a 1st and 3rd no out situation to allow no runs.  Nice. 

[romad1]

Jake breaks the Cane curse in the other game. 

[IdahoBert]

Home Run

Jake Rogers homers (1) on a fly ball to right center field.

[IdahoBert]

Tork is channeling his inner Hank Greenberg. 

[romad1]

Maeda can't stem the tide in the next inning. 

[IdahoBert]

Stretching out Maeda into three innings yielded three runs, but five strikeouts. So there is some upside to it and it is spring training. 

[romad1]

Red Sox are clobbering.  I get to hear about that tomorrow on Morning Joe.

[IdahoBert]

I guess it’s called spring “training” for a reason. It’s for training purposes, not edification.

Pittaro and Lovullo, both earmarked for greatness by Sparky

No pitch data today, but I was looking back at his 1st start and his FB was hitting 96, touched 97. I believe Manning is a guy for whom velo is key. In the past his effectiveness pretty much tracks his FB. When he's down around 92-93, he's AAA. At 95+ he can help this team.
