But the reality is we just don't know what the pitchers are doing. They told Olsen just to throw whatever and test his shoulder, for instance.

That was apparent, and was why Olsen was actually comfortable with his outing. It may not have looked great, but he was really just up there trying to get into a rhythm. Overall, he looked ok. The key is to build off this outing in the next one and add to the repertoire.

Great quote from a coach this morning at practice, "You took practice into the game with you yesterday. Do not do that today."

So MLB.TV will be blacked out for locals, right?

Perhaps I will hold off moving back to DC so I can remain close to Cooperstown for his eventual induction.

After that, we can await his ascention into heaven where he will supplant Jesus at the right hand of the father.

Isn't it spelled Ascension? At least that's how Trane spelled it.

WHYYYYY must Desmond play RF? The kid is not a utility player... he's a SS. Just leave him there and either put him in AAA or cut Guzman and make him the starter.

I do but I'm at work and don't have a DVR at home, just the basic HD box. Per my response in the other thread, I'll just watch the replay at 7pm.

Many thanks to MLB Network for adding this to their afternoon schedule

Looking forward to watching the game when I get home.

Looks like a 99 cent purchase on the iPhone, but I can't verify.

Production guys unaware of a hot mike on the MLB audio feed

I'm staying with my cousin this week and he doesn't have MLB Network

Looks like I'm stuck watching the highlights, but I'm sure that sportscenter will set a new record for total time alotted to Nats Highlights

They'll play benny hill while they show the rest of the team fumbling around, then they'll photoshop a Yankees uni onto all footage of Strasburg

Don't you first have to pay $14.99 for the MLB at Bat app?

CJames0569 · « **Reply #424 on:** March 09, 2010, 12:45:56 pm »

I'm starring at my phone and debating whether I should buy the MLB at bat app (I bought it last year!

) and if I could somehow pass it off as part of my work phone bill
