Good lord that sequence to Belt

 

They've swung at 10 curves. They've missed all of them.

 

The curve is destroying them, made McCutchen look foolish on his last swing.

 

Also does he not throw faster than this? He's sitting 90-91 and topping out at 92 but with a ton of movement.

If I can channel my inner North, this is must-watch TV.

No, he usually sits 91-92. He doesn't really ever throw a 4-seam fastball though.

This is the ideal scenario for me as a fantasy owner. Godley dominating for me in the auction league and Posey gets singles for LoD which don't hurt the former's line very much.

Felipe Rivero changes his name to Felipe Vazquez at his sister's request. Really strange story, sounds like his every move is controlled by her.

 

"I do everything for her,” Felipe Vázquez said.

 

The pitcher also said he may change his jersey number next season in consultation with his sister.

 

“When she says it’s time to change my number, I’ll do it,” he said.

This is beyond weird. What the hell did I just read?

 

It's like they are a married couple and his sister is extremely over controlling.

I enjoyed this article

https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-marlins-will-sue-almost-anyone/

 

It looks like the rot in the Marlins organization didn't leave with Loria. Its almost comical how other owners and the commissioner don't seem to care, MLB like all sport leagues is almost exclusively a PR and goodwill driven business. These teams are only valuable(outside of their real estate holdings) because fans give them value and yet the league allows shenanigans like this. This kind of thing would probably be much less likely to happen in a well run league like the NBA where the commissioner and the owners are relatively good at policing each other in order to protect the product they have.

Anyone watching the D'Backs game? Godley's curveball tonight is bananas.

 

I thought for sure you would've said it was godly.
