IU Scott Posted September 3, 2022 Report Share Posted September 3, 2022 Spencer Steer one of the players they got in the Mahle trade made his MLB debut last night. He went 2-2, 2BB, hr and scored the winning run in the 9th. Also another Red made their MLB debut last night but he was 42 years old. Cruz us a reliever and pitched a scoreless inning.

I think Cruz is 32, not 42. I knew he had a long and winding path to reach the bigs last night, But 42 does not seem right.

5fouls Posted September 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) I truly do not understand how there can be that big of a discrepancy in playoff odds between 2 teams with a game and a half separation in the standings.

CBS has the O's with a 17.9% of making the post season. They predict Baltimore with 83.8 wins while they have Toronto with 89.6. Fwiw, CBS has Seattle as the top Wild Card.

Seeking6 Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 I'm going to save Scott from having to post this. Lodolo (great little value pitcher) goes 6 innings, 2 hit, 101 pitch ball....have him across the board in Fanduel today. He leaves game and bullpen gives up a run and now has bases loaded with zero outs. If anyone knows anything about Fanduel the difference between 1st and 200th is typically a few points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 I just think worrying about pitch counts is just idiotic because babbying pitchers is not decreasing injuries. I know things are different but you see the all time great guys of the past a lot of them pitched for a lot of years and a lot of innings. It is that pitchers are not conditioned to put h a lot of innings in the minors and that it is about throwing as hard as you can for as long as you can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other day Strider for the Braves tied the Braves record for for strikeouts in a 9 inning game at 16. The overall record is 19 but that happen when Warren Spahn pitched 15 innings in one game.

5fouls Posted September 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 5-9 in the lineup the Reds trotted out against the Cubbies tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jv1972iu Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Many Cub fans know that Ian Happ OWNS the Reds. He murders the Reds pitching (I mean, who doesn't). So Happ hits a homerun during the second inning tonight. Out of curiosity, I check his stats for his career. He came up in 2017 and since then he's hit 103 homeruns. How many against the Reds?....26. F-ing ridiculous. LOL. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
