This umpire won't last long in the majors

Awesome job by Q. Let's score a run and get him a win

This is the same umpire that disgraced himself by the way in the Cubs home opener.

He's so awesome

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 05:30 PM) That's perfectly fair, all I am saying is blaming the baseball media for burying this because OMG CUBS is super f***ing lame. ManRam, Bonds, McGwire, Sosa, Clemens all got rooted out and every one of them was much bigger to the majors at that time than the Cubs are right now. There are always skeptical reporters that start digging when they are suspicious, not all of them follow along like puppies on a leash Agreed, too many reporters out there trying to get the big scoop for something like this to be buried if there was actual evidence. Now of course the Chicago media will defend anything relating to the Cubs at all costs, but you're foolish to begin with if you let those homers tell you what to think.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 05:13 PM) What has Arrietta said all along about Baltimore forcing him to throw the way they wanted to? All we ever talk about is how his delivery across the body is bad news and is the reason for his success and could be the reason for his downfall. People are gonna believe what they want. Could Arrietta be on the juice? Yea. Does his success indicate that he is on the juice? No He very well may be clean. As we've seen too often over the last 20 years or so in MLB, usually when someone starts doing unprecedented things, suspicion has become reality. If you didn't know the situation and learned that a pitcher that flopped in the majors all of a sudden became the best pitcher in the history of the game with the body of a Greek god and was hitting 440 foot homers, I think everyone would start wondering. It's not like people weren't questioning it last season...it's just now it's come out his peers have questioned it also.

Just looking at the velocity data, if he was up to no good, it probably started taking place towards the end of the 2012 season. Some pretty big spikes across the board. It is amazing that he's throwing his slider 5-7 mph harder than when he first came into the majors. http://www.brooksbaseball.net/velo.php?pla...16&s_type=2

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 27, 2016 -> 03:38 PM) Why is it that when Jake Arrieta is accused of PED use by other players the media is more concerned with Arrieta blowing off those allegations than the fact those allegations were made in the first place. "Jake Arrieta says he's flattered by accusations of PED use" (http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/15388965/jake-arrieta-chicago-cubs-says-flattered-accusations-ped-use).... uhhhh burying the lede much ESPN? I think the bigger story here may that other players, who dont seem to hurl these accusatiosn around all willy nilly, think the reigning Cy Young award winner is on the juice. Couldn't agree more with this
