Canadian Joey Votto has the quote of the day on today’s weather:
Still raining at the GABP…the tarp is on the field.
“Ask Porky [Lopez] or Dickie Pole what he thought,” Arroyo said “My arm feels great. I usually throw a little bit less but I threw a really hard one just to let them know I’m not full of it when I say my arm feels fine. I’m ready to go. They will let me know.”
UPDATE: Arroyo is starting on Thursday again. Baker changed his mind.
“I feel a lot better today so we’ll see. It’s a hard case,” Taveras said.
As for the session itself,
Pitchers and Catchers Reporting, no problems.
“Bronson threw really good,” Lopez said.
Bullpen coach Juan “Porky” Lopez caught Arroyo’s throwing session.
“Trust me, everything is negotiable,
Monster Energy Hats Sale,” Arroyo said.
First pitch was at 1:23 — 13 minutes behind schedule. Temperature was 37 degrees.
Earlier this morning, Bronson Arroyo threw a 40-pitch bullpen session and still wants to pitch on Thursday as originally scheduled. Yesterday, Manager Dusty Baker moved Arroyo back to Sunday and has Micah Owings going on Thursday.
“We play hockey in this weather, not baseball,” Votto said.
