Man, people are crushing Sale, but this is not that bad a performance. Give him a bit of time. Opening day was brutal, but this is a promising step. It doesn’t give me reason to doubt he might still be very good after some innings this season. Yeah we have to give it time, but man his command has been brutal plus the velo drop. Shouldn’t make conclusions until June though

I just don't think Kiké is a good defensive shortstop. I thought we couldn’t downgrade from Xander but I was wrong. Casas hasn’t been great at picking though either…

Sale really looks like a guy who needed a handful of rehab starts, which is what ST should have been. He needs to transition himself from a power pitcher to a crafty old lefty, he's lost the power pitcher over the last four years. dude he hasnt pitched a ton. he needs to build up arm strength. Sale is the least of our worries. Hes pitched like 15 games in 4 years. Let the man build back up.

Devers is a godsend. That ump tried to do him dirty too

And why be on Sale when this lineup has made Keller and Turnbull look like front line starters? Should Sale expect to have to have a 1.00 ERA to win!?

I might be the last one on Verdugo island, but I think he's both a good player and fun to watch.

He’s been a clutch performer too I love Verdugo because he’s clutch and visibly cares and is passionate. But he’s not JD Drew. Drew was a 130 wRC bat and a hell of a player. I hope Verdugo reaches Drew’s heights.

Duvall wow, he’s been insanely clutch and idk how he’s made as much contact in the zone as he has, I expected a 30-35 hit tool
