We have to lead the league in taken third strikes. What happened to the old adage of protecting the plate, especially with RISP and 2 outs.

 

And people wonder why we don't get a lot of bloops.

Well that sucks. Although, I just thought of the idea for a Boone Logan, Mike Ditka, Chuck Norris every man for himself wrestling match inside a cage. That would be pretty nifty.

 

Logan's size 16 feet might prove the difference.

Seriously. That's so 2005.

What did they say?

Something along the lines of "Last year, Don Cooper was the hot item. Everyone wanted to sign him, etc. This year, all the starters, with exception of Contreras, are all significantly worse than last year."

 

They went on to talk about the workload and about how the pitchers just might not be the same because of the amount of work they've had.

no way that swing vs. el duque in the playoffs was by far the worst

 

Actually, the worst swing in history was by Nick Green of the Yankees about two weeks ago at Toronto. I don't know if people saw it, but he literally swung after the catcher had the ball.

I have a hard time going against Coop after he came out to the mound in Minnesota and Buehrle threw that triple play on the next pitch. It takes a revolutionary thinker to go out there, tell your pitcher to throw a triple play ball, and see it get done on the 1st pitch.

 

Way to whiff Jeter, Javy. Nice pitch.
