New and improved Gameday - pretty sweet

Go Sox

Manny with Jack in top of 2nd

[Crazy Puppy]

Pedroia with a solo HR off Cole Hamels.

Just fired up the new Gameday and I must say I like some of the things they have done with it. The previous batters faced and previous PAs are pretty sweet to see

[Crazy Puppy]

JD Drew with a massive HR to center field, much to the delight of his adoring fans in Philly.

Bats seem to be waking up. Youkilis with a 2-run bomb. Tavarez has given up 4 hits and 1 run through 4 IP.

Just got in. Maybe they're getting into 'season mode?' No more trying to go the opposite way, tinkering mechanics etc. Just hitting like they normally would. How many HR were pulled?

Manny's was a high fly to right, aided somewhat by the dimensions of Citizens Bank. Drew's was an absolute bomb to straight-away CF. Youkilis and Pedroia both went deep to LF.

Cool, thanks a bunch. Not a bad night for Tavarez either; 5.2 IP 1 ER and only 69 pitches against a good hitting team in a hitter's park.

Tek with his second hit followed by a Coco single to left. Very nice to see.

[TheoShmeo]

On the one hand, that park in Philly is a band box where guys like Pedroia hit homers. On the other, Tavarez had a good outing and limited the Phillies to only one run in 5 2/3. A good night.

When do we start to worry about the impact of Papa Jack's absence on Ortiz? Probably not for a while, and probably not ever.

Still good to see Manny going opposite field. He always hits RF HRs when he gets hot..hopefulyl good omen to start the season.

The new Gameday is nice, but I liked the GameDay Enhanced they showed last year during the playoffs where the balls motion was shown. I'm not sure how accurate it was, but it was interesting to look at.

Edit: And I just found the GameDay blog where they are documenting some of the changes to come. Interesting.

Looks like Snyder had a rough night, and couldn't record the final out in the 9th before his pitch count became too high.

2.2 ip, 5 h, 4 r, 4 er, 2 bb, 3 K's

1st inning = good
2nd = ok
3rd = not so much

Just 'cause he was a starter doesn't mean that he should be used as a long reliever, and I hope Tito is smart enough to use him in short outings when the games count.

Or perhaps not at all or a lot in Pawtucket.

Snyder can't go to Pawtucket. He's out of options. Which is why he had scouts following him like a swarm of bees this spring.

I agree - use the guy in short situations. That's when he's at his best.
