This kid has a fastball that reaches 96 and a slow curve at 76.

Good luck!

Franco is a freaking animal. He makes it look so easy. 6-1 now. I can't even imagine what this team is going to do over the next 150 games

I feel this team could've been even better last year had he stayed healthy. He's the straw that stirs the drink for this offense.

Bradley needs to take that change up out back and burn it. But that curve?? That's just unfair.

What the hell are you talking about?

Kid pitched 5 good innings. Allowed just 3 runs on 5 hits and a walk and struck out 8.

He didn't blow the game. The offense didn't have to play from behind. They got a lead and Taj was able to settle in.

He had a good 1st outing. And oh, BTW, he's not even a rookie. He'll be back in Durham tomorrow.

This is a hella bad take. Let me give you an example of why judging a pitcher on ONE START makes no sense:

Roger Clemens‘ first game was against the Cleveland Indians in a rather inauspicious beginning to a career that collected 192 wins with the Red Sox. Clemens struggled with a pedestrian pitching line: 5.2 IP, 11 H, 5 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 4 K. Better days were ahead.

They should have just taken him out back and shot him, right?

Humorous article I saw this morning...
The Tampa Bay Rays are Cheating
Something fishy is going on in Florida...
By Jacob Roy Apr 12, 2023, 4:16pm EDT

I can’t back it up, but I’m quite sure that the Tampa Bay Rays are cheating. Not cheating during games like the Houston Astros were doing in 2017, though. The Rays have taken a different route in the trickery, and somebody needs to get to the bottom of it.



That’s right, they’ve got nine right-handed hitters to smack grounders at the Red Sox shortstop in between home run swings. I hope you’re ready, Kiké! Oh, wait. Hold on, I’m getting another tweet here:



That’s right: Bobby Dalbec is starting at short against a lineup entirely of right-handed hitters. Fun!

But seriously, how are the Rays even doing this? This comes one day after Tampa had six left-handed hitters in the lineup. I’m aware of switch-hitters, but the chances of having that many effective ones are near zero. In the first game of the series, Tampa trotted out four left-handed pitchers. I’m sure they somehow have another eleven right-handers still in the bullpen. There’s obviously some kind of administrative shenanigans going on to allow them to have 45-plus players on the roster at any given time. They’ve found a way to do roster gymnastics better than Simone Biles.

Given the way the Rays operate, it’s within the realm of possibility that I get a phone call asking me to start in left field for them next Tuesday against Cincinnati, because they’ve identified something in the way I type that can help them win a ball game. Something doesn’t add up here, and the commissioners office should step in.

Lol it's going to suck so bad once we get back to earth. Like someone's going to tie the game at 5-5 after we had a 3 run lead and it's gonna be like "THEY SUCK!!!" when that's perfectly normal

That's a nice lead you got there. It would be a real shame if someone just dropped 7 runs on you
