IU Scott Posted July 6, 2022 Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) Lodolo pitched well tonight for the Reds after being on the IL for 2 months. Only problem was he could only go 4.2 innings because of his pitch count at 90. He gave up no runs on 3 hits also had 8K's and 3BB. This game is your typical baseball in 2022. 5 innings with 30 outs 18K'S 3BB 4 hits 0 runs so not much action on the bases With the bullpen in for the Reds the Mets will probably win now especially with how Scherzer is pitching Edited July 6, 2022 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they allowed Harper to cheat to beat him. I watched. They gave Harper wayyyy more time between pitches than was suppose to be allowed in that particular derby. Per the rules.

Poster child for what the league is right now and I'd take him back in a heartbeat. Schwarber is basically on autolock in my daily fanduel entries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slugging over .520 is terrible? Kyle Schwarber is one of the few reasons we bother to turn an MLB game on at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When almost half of your rbi is driving yourself in with a homer that is not good. If he could actually hit he should have 70+ rbi. I don't need my power hitters walking a lot because his job is to drive in runs. I haven't seen one Phillies game all year so I am not just tuning in to see him. Edited July 6, 2022 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen one Phillies game all year so I am not just tuning in to see him. Its really hard for him to hit a HR with anyone on his first AB every game. Kyle hit .270/.375/.550 all while playing on two completely different teams, in different leagues, and had to miss like 30 games because of big time injury. "I don't need my power hitters walking" --- he's 17th in the MLB in slugging. Tied for 13th in the MLB in RBIs as a leadoff hitter. He is also tied for 4th in the MLB in runs.... And... tied for 2nd in MOONSHOTS.. and holy god did he hit one last night. We wasn't you and I. "We"= my wife and I. Edited July 6, 2022 by btownqb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how it was or the game times long ago. I'm sure it was awesome watching games or listening to them mid day and what not.

IUFLA Posted July 6, 2022 Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 When it was only the AL champ vs the NL champ, every teacher I had rolled a TV from the AV room in during the World Series... It was exciting... Girls could go to the library if they wanted, but most stayed. It was kinda a "do your homework or watch the game" deal. And the only problem I've ever had with any leagues playoff system is making it so expansive that sub .500 teams get in. I hate rewarding mediocrity... I take it the 2nd round is best of 5?  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
