Well, at least next team Peavy faces doesn't have a lot of lefties.

Invisible bats so far today. Lots of misses on that hanging slider.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 07:22 PM) If each game had about 10 strikeouts, that's a $15k donation. Strasburg going today

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:20 PM) Wow, Jake giving away $100 per strikeout around the league today. That's kinda cool actually. Indeed, very cool. Also it's cool that our hitters are doing their best to help with the strikeout totals

Kuroda making it look easy. Unreal amount of swing and misses.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:01 PM) Jake throwing junk today. Just like his last game. His velocity seems fine, so I don't think it's due to the high pitch count game vs the Cubs two starts ago.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 05:59 PM) White Sox offense is sleeping in today. Kuroda has great location so far, and Sox just aren't a good match-up for him. That happens sometimes, just like how Yankees aren't a good match-up for Peavy. Hard to get greedy after winning the first two with Axelrod and Quintana on the mound.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:53 PM) Opposing batters have an OPS of .435 when facing Peavy when Flowers is catching. With AJ, .650 That's a great stat, where did you find it

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:50 PM) Righties 0-4, Lefties 4-6 Everything has been away to those lefties also. He struggled big time against lefties in his last start as well.

Peavy is just meat to lefties today. Needs to work in more change-ups, as everything is hard.

This is how Peavy looked in San Diego when facing righties. Mercy

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:47 PM) Thankfully, that's something Youk will learn. He's never had to play at Yankee Stadium before, right?

QUOTE (kapzk @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:46 PM) What is Youk doing out there He's not had a very good series against his old rivals.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 06:46 PM) LOL, Youk didn't have that one either. Nice play by Alexei. Bad back, bad stomach, bad vision I guess

Looking at Peavy's career splits, it's amazing how consistent his lefty/righty splits have been except for last year. He really has destroyed righties in his career.

Let's hope Ventura doesn't play the Sunday reserve lineup tomorrow against Hughes, as that lineup has a lot of lefties in it. Hughes has been torched by righties this season.

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 05:37 PM) Tyler Flowers you are just dismal. If that average gets into the .140-150 range, I wonder if they look to send him down and acquire another back-up catcher?

Lots of righties in the Sox lineup today. Gonna make it tough with that sweeping slider Kuroda is throwing way off the plate.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 05:31 PM) Yanks have a lot of douchebag faces. Granderson? Douchebag face. Texeira? Douchebag face Ha, two of the nicest guys in baseball

Peavy's got some crisp stuff today

QUOTE (Baron @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 05:26 PM) and that was a bad pitch Yep, couldn't have thrown it more into his wheelhouse

One of the worst ABs from Rios in a while. 14 straight games without scoring in the first now.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 30, 2012 -> 05:16 PM) Also don't like the steal attempt with so many guys who get on base well behind you. Good odds of getting into scoring position other ways Especially considering you have Dunn batting 3rd, so getting a runner to 3rd with one out isn't as important as with most hitters.

Had to stop watching at 6-6, and then returned to see 14-7 final! What was Septimo's velocity like? Awesome to see Alexei and Beckham with a big game.

Went and saw Ted tonight and enjoyed it. It's basically Family Guy if it was on HBO with a talking teddy bear.
