"The slender right hander"

 

I'm guessing scouts didn't like his build

 

Edit: 9th round draft pick, 272nd pick overall. LOL probably not. But he was drafted as an infielder.

[G-Snarls]

Well he just became the first pitcher in THE HISTORY OF MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL to strike out 6 batters in the first 2 innings of his first career playoff game

[thatoneguy]

DeGrom with 11 Ks. His stuff is absolute dynamite.

 

He has thrown a lot of pitches though, will likely be out of the game before the end of the 7th.

Huge AB here.

Wright!

Dodgers are the 2nd best team in the MLB. Cheering against them.

[Spoonovic]

The Dodgers are gutless. Largest payroll every year yet they choke in the playoffs regularly.

Interesting game between Cubs/Cards. Cubs lose they're down 0-2, if they win, the Cards have to go into game 3 tied and facing Arrieta. I love the NL matchups this year.

[Orgfiller]

The Cardinals making unCardinal-like plays.

Crazy turn of events.

That went down the toilet in a hurry for the Cards.

Cubbies on fire, make it a series boys... Woohoo.

[o2cui2i]

thanks... lol

 

 

good game.... I want the cubs to win this series.

I wasn't that big of a fan of the Cards heading into the postseason. Outside of Lackey, the rotation isn't that scary. Lynn has really struggled over the last two months, no CarMart, Wacha was awful in September. Like the Cubs a lot better in a 5 game series. If the Cubs win this one tonight, they have Arrieta for Game 3 and possibly Lester on short rest for Game 4 or definitely for Game 5.

[Spanky__99]

thanks... lol

If they split, it's in Chicago's court, but.....

[Spanky__99]

Jays win Game 3, I like their chances. Funny game.

That was quick, I love Kolten Wong. Bye bye... Hendricks.

Randal Grichuk pinch hit home run! He's available in the DDL.

[o2cui2i]

both of those balls were ripped. Cards dodged a bullet there.

[Orgfiller]

Wainright absolutely dominating.

[Abomination]

Thor hitting 101 mph in the first.

[Orgfiller]

Thor hitting 101 mph in the first.

 

Came in to post this lol. 101 mph and painting the outside corners, that shouldn't be allowed.

[Orgfiller]

That's simply disgusting. 92 and 91 mph dirty changeups to follow a series of fastballs at 100+.
