Does anyone feel that Stroman might be a bit overrated?

I would just pay for MLB.tv if you don't have any blackout issues. Free streams are too inconsistent.

QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:23 PM) Can Gonzalez be optioned back to Charlotte without being exposed to waivers? Nope I think he's out of options. That's why he got DFA'd.

Why are the Reds allowing Simon to pitch against the Cubs? He's got a 38 ERA against them.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:21 PM) I want to believe, they are starting to show me something. Let's see how they do off the road trip. Four extra base hits today was a very good sign, if you can't get a ton of hits at least make the ones you do get count for something. Lock down pitching today all across the board. Very, very nicely done. Mark This sweep was very unexpected. But yeah, the real test is this upcoming road trip. Toronto's the best offense in the AL and Baltimore is good as well. Let's see how the pitching holds up.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:10 PM) Remember those people mocking the Latos bonuses in his contract? Not looking too bad now. He's the Cy Young through 4 stars and while that is unrealistic, he could be an all star. His numbers will come back down to earth eventually. His xFIP is near 5 right now. The BABIP and HR% on fly balls will normalize. I think we saw some of that today. He's not gonna have his A+ stuff every start, but as long as he keeps us in the game, that's more than good enough.

13-6 and 5-2 on the week. Great rebound after struggling vs. the Angels. To do it against a team that came in red hot is even better.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:04 PM) Harper is about .350 OPS points ahead of Barry Bonds age 23 season Prime Barry Bonds.

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:04 PM) Held the Rangers to 4 runs in 29 innings. Unbelievable. The real test comes in this next series against Toronto. If we can keep that offense down, then we're 100% for real.

SWEEEEEEEEEP!

Robertson breaking out the curve today like it's nothing.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) Maybe the most underrated. I didn't even know he was closing in on 3000 hits. His few years in Seattle kind of skewed his offensive numbers a bit. He's been a beast for the Rangers.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 04:01 PM) Bryce Harper hitting .323/.405/.855, holy s*** Still not Barry Bonds.

Robertson's much sharper today it appears.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) Get the Brett Lawrie ASG hype train started. I dont think he's gonna outpeform Altuve but he could be a reserve. Way too early to tell.

QUOTE (Chris Sale @ Apr 24, 2016 -> 03:58 PM) I thought Frazier was good at 3B... Beltre's defense is hall of fame worthy.

Holy s*** what a throw by Beltre. He threw that while falling down.

Sands should have a good time hitting off Claudio too.

There we go! 4-1

I have a feeling Lawrie is going to destroy Claudio.

Beltre's so damn good at 3B.

Rangers have some great arms in the OF. Nice hit by Jose. Get him in Todd.

What a job by Jones

Jones not able to put hitters away this inning.

Jones loses Fielder...
