Exactly my thoughts when I read this.
I want to read this same report when he isn’t hitting off a JUGS pitching machine…

That’s either a softball machine, or a machine intended to have the same release point as a midget.
Anyways, it’s Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Night for me!

If you put a ball in there it wont be going any higher than knee level. That is either a Softball or young kid level version. Hardball ones would have 2 wheels.

Great name for the product
And it finally answers my question if cups come in one size.

Mongo?
..so allow me to present Tim Lincecum and Matt Cain as two sweet, sweet bottles of warming hooch.
looks like the picture of my size got cut off.
It probably says “THE MIDGET”

It’s raining like hell here and I’m freezing cold. I’ll take the optimism of Buster Posey hitting a home run over this misery.

it’s not raining that bad, you are in antioch right?

Pittsburg, same thing basically. I still hate rain and I hate being cold. I’m miserable.

ah
im in walnut creek and it only sprinkled a little bit. I thought we were going to get soaked for like 10 days?
Then again in Walnut Creek it wasn’t raining and then i went to berkeley and sure enough, it was pouring.
I guess what i’m trying to say is that even God recognizes Berkeley is filthy.

…either that or Walnut Creek is too boring for God to bother sending rain there.

Our eye in Scottsdale says Gerald was spraying line drives gap to gap from the moment he first stepped into the box.
I like the picture of RJ strolling out to where all the other pitchers have been stretching for 10 mins.

Stop laughing
From Hank Schulman
Although Posey is considered a fast-track prospect, he might need more than one season in the minors. And, though the organization is committed to having him catch, minds do change. By next winter, the Giants could decide they still need a seasoned catcher in 2010. If so, Molina stands ready to listen.
Pop
I just got done watching their BP session today, and Posey continued the show. I know it’s BP but the ball jumps off his bat like no one else out there. We’ll see if he still stands out tomorrow when the rest of the players get in the box.
BTW Bengie’s Bentley is amazing.
Solid
I was actually surprised with what I saw out of Jackson Williams today. He hit with the second tier of Catchers, and was hitting consistent line drives. More than anything, I was surprised how athletic he was. His agility drills were really impressive. He was clearly the leader of his group, too.
