2016 MLB catch all thread

Mattingly takes Conley out after 116 pitches with a no hitter. I think that's bulls***, although the reliever is three outs away from the no no and they still may get it. You figure it'll take him 132 pitches maximum to get the no-no. I think those 16 pitches are worth the risk of a career ending injury.

You only get half credit this season if you no hit the Reds or Brewers.

Those 16 pitches could make the difference between three generations of his family being financially set for life or Conley having to take a real job at age 30. Stop it greg.

I know.

We're in a new era. Everything is based on money today ... everything. My guess is he could have gone 16 more pitches. Do we have any scientific proof (ptatc?) that anything over 120 pitches is playing jeopardy with one's arm?

I'm glad the reliever didn't get it. I hate combined no hitters. I wonder which player you jump on and dogpile after a combined no hitter? The starter or the guy who got four outs? I'd wait til the starter got out of the dugout and dogpile on him.

Raburn is awesome

Nobody even notices Raburn with Story, Arenado and CarGo hogging all the headlines out there.

Bassitt has a partial UCL tear, so Tommy John surgery is on the table, but he will seek a second opinion next week.

Chris Devenski started for the Astros. He was traded by the Sox in the Brett Myers trade.

 

Junior Guerra is starting for the Brewers on Tuesday.

Guerra pitched great for the Sox in the minors, but he barely pitched when called up (and he didn't pitch well in his 4 innings of work). Cooper wasn't interested so off he went.

We'll see how he does with the Brewers.

@Schmuckstop Source: X-rays of Hardy's foot have O's officials very concerned. May be fracture.

 

@Schmuckstop Hardy and Britton have more tests tomorrow. Could be defining day of early season.

Red Sox beat the Yankees. They come to Chicago with the second best AL record.

 

Go Danks! No, really. Go.

We are running into pretty good teams lately

The Sox are holding their own as well. Good to see.

Red Sox have also had a pretty easy schedule. Last 11 against Astros, Braves, Yanks with a combined record of 22-50.

The next series for the teams right behind the Red Sox:

 

Tigers at Indians

Orioles host Yankees

Rangers at Blue Jays (that could get interesting)

Mariners at A's

Royals host Nationals

 

If the teams on the right win two out of three or sweep, while the White Sox sweep the Red Sox, you'd probably see the Sox playoff chances jump to 80+%

Yankees are really bad, but the other teams on the right should have a good chance of winning at least 2 of 3. As for the Sox sweep, you must have forgotten that the black hole in the rotation pitches Tuesday.

Wednesday. But, yeah.

Shelby Miller is averaging fewer than 4 innings per start, has a 1:1 K/BB ratio, and boasts an 8.49 ERA. That trade has the potential to be the most lopsided in decades. It's exciting.

ESPN cut out Schilling from the documentary about the 2004 ALCS. How stupid and petty.

Schilling is a giant dumbass, but ESPN is populated with giant dumbasses.

I can't stand Schilling as a person, but you have to respect him as a player. Leaving him out of a documentary where he was one of the most pivotal parts is so dumb.

Schilling is a giant dumbass, but ESPN is populated with giant dumbasses.

 

If ESPN didn't have rights to most of the college basketball/football slate, I probably wouldn't watch it at all.
