Posted March 21, 200618 yr Still digesting what I saw in the sweltering heat of Roger Dean Stadium today. Vargas looked great for 3 innings then began losing that early game masterful control But, he stayed composed and hung-in nicely. He's in my rotation! Who the hell is Carlos Martinez? He looked like a ready-to-go MLB pitcher. Some sad relief appearances. Comes with the territory at this time of the year. Jacobs looked strong at 1B. So did Stokes. Cab's looked like he never missed a beat. HanRam is overwhelming Andino's excellence. Abercrombie is like the mystery man... that one guy in ST who shows the promise of magic. And we pray for him! Must finish digesting a long, hot, but exciting day.
March 21, 200618 yr it is spring training though. i'm happy because we had some offense and we were hitting the ball well. granted I didn't see the whole game but 8 runs? i don't remember that ever happening in last year's spring training
March 21, 200618 yr Carlos Martinez is a 24 year old(in May) righthander who pitched just in A ball last year as their closer throws low to mid 90s(topping out at 95) went 4-5, 3.12era, 1.22 whip for Jupiter got hit hard in his 1 appearance in AA, and 2 appearances in AAA
March 21, 200618 yr Based on what I saw on the ESPN broadcast, Cabs missed two pop ups that should've been his. Not that he dropped them- rather, they should've been his balls to catch instead of someone else looking foolish (Willy, Jacobs). And Bowyer looks more like a thrower than a pitcher to me.
