Good stuff from dbah0. I personally think the Knights will suck just because they have no hitting that impresses me. Their pitching should do well though.
Yeah, but Carlos looked good at the plate today. He hit a couple of deep flyouts. And, yes, I know they are still outs. It's just better to see him hit balls well instead of k'ing or hitting a weak groundout.
The teasers are good too. Superman has issues with the Green Lantern.
I find it weird that Superman is, well, like the Tick. Not how I had imagined him.
Well Rauch pitched well, but the lack of innings worries me. I don't know the reason for the early pull though. I'd like to see his pitch count.
Kannapolis Box Score
Birmingham Box Score
A little off topic, but within the minors...The Barons are losing 11-1 to West Tennessee in the top of the 9th and Kannapolis lost 11-5 to Lakewood. The Barons bullpen got shelled and the Intmidators starter got shelled, or at least that's how it appears from the innings that the run were scored.
Yeah some of it was good, and some of it I already knew. The Pete Rose thing they had last year was MUCH more interesting. Then again, it's not a very entertaining question. Pete Rose has more controversy. Nobody likes the Yankees outside of Yankee fans, it's more split with Rose.
He does seem to have a good mindset for a closer. His stuff is good, I'm not yet convinced he has spectacular stuff. Either way, I think he'd do well. The bigger issue in my mind is if Cotts can take that 5th spot though.
Koch proved to me in ST that he is going to be crap this year. In 2 outtings he got hit hard, luckily for him only one of them that resulted in runs. Shingo is the only guy who hasn't blown up yet. Let's see what he can do. It's still too early to judge. Ozzie should let Koch keep the job if he has confidence in him.
Russ Ortiz was just serving em up to the Braves hitters. In the 1st he gave up that jack to Matsui, a single, and 3 deep flyouts. He continued to get rocked after that.
Oh and btw ESPN, Beckett 7 IP, 1 ER. Most overrated pitcher in baseball my ass.
I'm so happy for Kip. So happy that, along with my boy Josh Fogg, they have enough likable players that I may want to root for the Pirates. Ya know, since our season is over.
Yeah, I agree with you. Think about it though, even if he bats .300-.310 it's a disappointment. He isn't going to bat .400 again, at least I don't think he will.
