Ozzie for Manager

Something happened. Benintendi seems to be trying to hit the ball with more power and launch angle. He might get to 10 HRs this year with the approach. That is 1.5 million per HR. Nice.

Yesavage 6 1/3 12 KS, 1 hit. O runs tonight. 27ks last 13 innings

I was at the ECU game against wichita state last Friday. Trey Yesavage struck out 15 in the first 6 innings. It was as dominating a performance as I had ever seen. Coach was dumb and pitched him in the 7th after 106 pitches already and he let up 2 runs. But those first 6 innings were just unbelieavable. He is flying up draft rankings. 1.92 ERA, 61 innings, 33 hits, 101Ks and .852 whip, 15ks per 9 innings. To put that into context Strasburg struck out 16 per 9 innings. K'd 101 of 236 batters faced

Nobody looks to have mentioned trey yesavage from ECU. Had to be rising up draft boards. Was already a fringe first rounder preseason. I have seen him many times and he is pretty much unhittable. 7-1, 54 IP with 28 hits and 86Ks. 10 might be too high, but 2nd round would be a gift. A few years ago, I said we should draft gavin williams from ECU. We didn't, he flew up to the majors. We did take Montgomery that draft so we did OK.

Except our defense which was what Getz tried to make so great is ranked 22nd in fielding percentage. So we got crappy hitters who can't field either this year. Yay White Sox.

The Mrs. and I had been really debating whether YM's primary leads were the best of his career. Glad Pedro cleared that up for us.

Got robert and moncada. Not doing well.

HR and I get the run line win.

I am shocked Shaw is getting rocked

I think I would have rather pitched a position player than Shaw

Do any sox play their natural position?

Mookie has 17 runs scored and the sox have 16 so far this year

I took the under for $50 and then live bet royals when e were up 3-1. Won the last 3 betting royals

Won't even cover the under I bet of 9 runs because the sox can't catch

Even if we just had a semblance of a ML lineup offensively we would be 5-3. The pitching has been fairly impressive.

How did Vinnie P have the balls to stay in front of that rocket by Benettendi?

So that's what its like to hit with RISP

It's in the bag. I bet the Braves.

Moncada and Eloy are pure dog feces at the plate. Neither seem like they give a damn. Sit Yoan a few games now.

Ok. I was wrong.

Eloy Walk Off HR. I'm calling it

Nice inning Wilson

For decades there were 4 man rotations. A pitcher barely reaches 200 innings anymore. They used to throw 250-300 consistently. There wasn't all these am injuries like there is now. If you use something more it gets stronger. Also if you learn how to pitch you don't have to give max effort all the time. It's why kopech stocks. He throws, doesn't pitch. Crochet looked smooth out there, he didn't have to give max effort every pitch. Greg Maddux was on the DL for a total of 15 days in 23 seasons.

Maybe we could stop coddling pitchers and they would get stronger like they did for all of baseball history until the last 25 years.

Why the hell did we trade jake burger
