BTS Community Moderator Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 Org, you've owned Keuchel in multiple leagues for years now. Any idea why he scrapped the slider? It was his best pitch when he was good.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 Org, you've owned Keuchel in multiple leagues for years now. Any idea why he scrapped the slider? It was his best pitch when he was good. I think it started getting crushed - the rest of his stuff is too though - so he started going heavy on the cutter which worked for him last year and the change usage skyrocketed. I think the reason is at this point his best bet is going full junkballer and deception with sinker/changeup since the command is nowhere it used to be and the rest of the stuff has declined significantly.

I think the reason is at this point his best bet is going full junkballer and deception with sinker/changeup since the command is nowhere it used to be and the rest of the stuff has declined significantly. He doesn't even look like the same pitcher anymore even though the velo hasn't changed. The slider was an actual swing an miss pitch for him, and at one point he could locate the sinker down with his eyes closed. Now he doesn't have any pitch to generate swinging strikes, and he can't command the fastball for s***. Kind of a weird decline - usually the velo goes and everything falls apart.

BTS Community Moderator Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 He seems like the quintessential True Card. My troupe of low-velo shitballers were supposed to limit walks and have ERA/OBPA cleaned up by DeGrom and Bauer. Things have not gone according to plan.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 No shade, but your team doesn’t look very scary without Degrom, Acuna, and Franco. I might even take my dogshit collection of pitchers over yours! Feelin like the 2019 Raptors right about now.
BTS Community Moderator Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 No shade, but your team doesn’t look very scary without Degrom, Acuna, and Franco. I might even take my dogshit collection of pitchers over yours! Feelin like the 2019 Raptors right about now. I said before the matchup that I thought it was a tossup. I think our current offenses are mostly a wash (though you're having the better week), and we're both rolling with like 1 ace, a couple decent mid-rotation guys and a bunch of gas cans.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted September 16, 2021 Posted September 16, 2021 God Damn... Org's wrecking s*** this week!
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 Desperation is starting 2021 Jake Arrieta on a critical playoff Sunday.
BTS Community Moderator Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 Desperation is starting 2021 Jake Arrieta on a critical playoff Sunday. I’ve accepted my fate, but only losers go out with adds remaining for the week.
BTS Community Moderator Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 Congrats on the W Dinger. Bouncing the top two seeds is impressive, regardless of the circumstances. Good luck in the final, and go f*** yourself.

Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 21, 2021 Posted September 21, 2021 It might be exactly 5 years, not sure when I exactly changed the name.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted September 21, 2021 Posted September 21, 2021 It might be exactly 5 years, not sure when I exactly changed the name. The old Google Sheet has you as Los Osos Blancos till 2018, so prob not a full five years
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 23, 2021 Posted September 23, 2021 Coors Field is really my friend tonight.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted September 25, 2021 Posted September 25, 2021 Coors Field is really my friend tonight. You need a big weekend, bruh.. Org's looking good right now.
BTS Community Moderator Posted September 25, 2021 Posted September 25, 2021 Org’s offense has stepped it up and Dinger’s folded like a cheap tent. This is over.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 25, 2021 Posted September 25, 2021 Well, there’s always 2026!
BTS Community Moderator Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 Congrats Org! Well-deserved title. Hell of a run to you too Dinger. Vladdy looks like a ticket to the playoffs for the foreseeable future.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Alright, the chances of multiple Stanton/Devers/Sanchez HR and a German HLD now seem remote enough that I'm willing to concede. Congrats Org, you put together a hell of a team.

Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Losing stings. Now I know why Boxy was so bitter all the time.
