And in fact, it could be even thought of as detrimental to spring training to consider these games (or player stats) meaningful.<br /><br />I would add Morgan to your list of people on the bubble, JD. He has plenty to prove, just by virtue of last year's season.<br /><br />There are people in camp who simply need to work on their stuff, and there are other people in camp who are auditioning. Neither of these things necessarily leads to good team performance in these practice-games.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07243007019646325480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-12186109220038728912011-03-05T11:29:31.044-05:002011-03-05T11:29:31.044-05:00Anon8,

You know what Zim is going to give you so who cares what he does in 7 at bats in games which don't count?<br /><br /> Storen may be working on a new pitch or trying some new grip; so who cares if he gives up a bunch of runs in games which are designed for just such experimentation?<br /><br /> BTW; if you guys choose to stress over every spring training at bat then go for it; whatever makes you happy. <br /><br /><br /> Also; people on the bubble like Balester, Detwiler, Stairs etc don't have the luxury of just preparing for the season; they must impress or risk losing their jobs. They can stress over poor spring performances.JDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-45579432516712933472011-03-05T11:08:50.650-05:002011-03-05T11:08:50.650-05:00Sunderland, if JD wants to call someone out, get t...Sunderland, if JD wants to call someone out, get the right person.<br /><br />Also, if someone is critical but accurate, they should be allowed to speak their mind IMO.

I just read through everything and the only comment from Steve M. with regards to Zim is this:<br /><br /><i>If Ryan Zimmerman goes 3 for 3 tomorrow he will be batting .400 so I agree, chill. On the BF index, I just hope he continued his winter workout and nutrition regimen. <br /><br />March 4, 2011 2:30 PM </i><br /><br />Nothing wrong with that except he is wrong on the stats unless that was before Zim hit the HR. A 3 for 3 day would put Zim at .454<br /><br />The comments on Storen were harsh but accurate:<br /><br /><i>What a horrible performance by Storen. That is back to back sub-par appearances and both while facing AAA and AA guys. <br /><br />March 4, 2011 3:36 PM </i><br /><br />He isn't saying cut the guy or send him to AAA rather it was a horrible performance against Minor League quality guys, and probably wasn't helped by a catchable ball in RF.Anonymous8noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-71664109636113767932011-03-04T17:07:54.341-05:002011-03-04T17:07:54.341-05:00IE8 - banner link no workIE8 - banner link no workN.
