Quin Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 28, 2012 -> 08:35 PM) Homer Bailey no hitter against Pittsburgh. 1-0 win. I'm with J4L. No hitters are becoming less and less impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for perfect games, I hope another Sox pitcher never throws one again. It's a jinx. I could see them becoming more common in the NL since the best hitters are coming over to the AL.

Cali Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 The New Kids of October, the surprise teams: Nats, Orioles, and A's.... Who's for real and who is just gonna choke under the spotlight? My guess would be the O's, because I couldn't for the life of me, tell you one starter on that team. They don't have any sort of an ace to take them through the playoffs at all. The A's have a pretty horrible offense, but great pitching. I can see them getting at least to the ALDS (unless they actually catch Texas -- then maybe to the ALCS) but that lack of offensive production is gonna catch up with them. The Nats will miss Stras in October for sure, but they have the most balanced of these three teams. I can see them in the NLCS taking Cincy to the limit, but again the lack of Stras will be their downfall in my opinion. But Damn would I love to see them in the Series.

fathom Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Anyone see the interview with Strasburg last night after they won? He definitely acted as if it's possible they'll use him in some capacity in the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabiness42 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Nats and Reds are my two favorite NL teams. Not sure who I'm rooting for if they meet up. I guess maybe the Nats since DC has never won one before, but then if the Reds win it would be the first time I have been "local" to a WS winner.

flavum Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Reds 5 starting pitchers combined for 161 starts. They used a minor leaguer for a double header in August. I've never seen that before, and it has to be a record. BTW, the Sox used 12 different starting pitchers. edit: Giants 5 starters combined for 160 starts. Also incredible.

witesoxfan Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Rangers hire Dave Magadan as hitting coach I normally wouldn't post about random team coach hirings, but I found this interesting Magadan will be the fifth hitting coach in five seasons for Texas.

flavum Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) 3-way trade between Marlins, A's, and D-Backs. Heath Bell and Cliff Pennington to Arizona, Chris Young to Oakland. Miami gets Yordy Cabrera I think it's a rule that every former White Sox prospect that goes to Arizona must then end up in Oakland. Marlins...would it surprise anyone if Buehrle was on a different team next year? Edited October 20, 2012 by flavum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
