SoxAce Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 17, 2010 -> 10:38 PM) I'm going to be pissed off if Josh Johnson doesn't win the CY. Amazing how well he's pitched and the season he's had when you really analyze his numbers. Everyone was pretty much handing Ubaldo Jimenez the Cy Young all season. He could still get it, but as of right now, Johnson is my pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should actually revise me statement some and say that if JJ continues to pitch at this level without hitting a real rough patch, like Ubaldo did in June, that he should be the clear choice.

flavum Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) Phil Cuzzi cost the Giants a win today on a blown call at the plate in the bottom of the 9th. That guy sucks. ..and another reason why they need to expand replay. Edited July 19, 2010 by flavum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how about Carlos Santana? He could be the best catcher in the AL very soon. .274/.432/.988 with an OPS+ of 172 in 139 PAs. His 1.50 BB/K rate is uncanny for such a young hitter. I've said it all year, I've never seen an infusion of talent as deep as what we've seen in '10 hit the game practically all at once in my time as a baseball fan.

I guess I was looking from this point on into 2011. He still has Brian McCann and Geovany Soto to battle with for that title. McCann's probably my favorite catcher in all of baseball. Even in a down year, he has a .360 something wOBA. Edited July 19, 2010 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) Holy s***. Pittsburgh just scored 9 in the bottom of the first. Pedro Alvarez hit a grand slam. There were two consecutive errors and the Pirates had back to back to back doubles. Dave Bush is absolutely terrible.

Pitchers should learn from that and always aim for the runners junk when working on the pick off move for now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Please tell me someone else was watching top of 9th in Dodgers/Giants game. I can honestly say I've never seen that before. Mattingly went to mound to talk to Broxton, took a step off the mound, and then took two steps back to say one more thing to him. Giants manager saw this, and told the umpires that should count as two visits. Broxton was forced to leave, and Dodgers had no one warming up.
