I think it was Dave Johnson doing the game yesterday. He was complaining about how bad so many hitters are at bunting, how important it is, and how easy it is to practice it. He said you can't take a thousand swings a day, because it would wear you out. But you certainly can practice a thousand bunts a day. That would presumably provide some proficiency.

"Chicks dig the long ball"

We brought the sticks and won both games today. We're starting to feel a little less helpless out there. Even if we take 51 men to March 28th. The journeymen who get cut won't have time to make an opening day roaster. That always slurps.

I am interested to see where Kjerstad ends up when the season opens. He is making some loud noises in preseason. Dare they keep him on the major league club come opening day?

I was wondering about him too. He hasn't broken down the door quite yet, based on minor league progression. He's established himself in fall and spring. I think he's ticketed to the high minors, just because they still can for this year. If he hits like this in the high minors, he'll force the issue for '24 latest.
