So if you walk 6 and strike out 3, while throwing a no hitter. You f***ing suck and pitched an awful game?

 

Pretty much.

 

That would be incredibly lucky

[Daniel Labude]

Watching the hockey game. Why is Sanchez out?

 

Blister again it looks like

Correct. Glad you get it and we can move on from this discussion.

[Daniel Labude]

Pretty much.

 

That's objectively a terrible argument and I would feel sorry if someone believed that. Pitching isnt just Ks and walks. Never has been and never will be. It's about getting outs and not giving up baserunners and runs. It can be done 100s of different ways. You cant strike out every batter. That would be best, but you cant

[Orgfiller]

Brandon Drury is scorching.

[BTS]

More walks than strike outs. No swinging strikes. Day cut short because of blisters. Nice of Aaron Sanchez to give us a quintessential Sanchez performance on a day when he's been the topic of fierce debate on the BJMB.

True, but the skill of being able to consistently miss bats is decidedly more effective than hitters being able to make contact with virtually everything, and hoping the ball goes directly to a defender.

[Orgfiller]

Holy f*** another incredible throw from Laureano. What an arm.

[Omar]

[Slade]

Holy s*** man he has a great arm. I didn't even think he had a chance to make it close.

[Carlos Danger]

I am just waiting for Morales to cost the A’s a run/outs at 1b. It has to happen you would think..

 

Like I said

[Orgfiller]

There you go Danny!

[BlueRocky]

Hey Jansen, please keep hitting

 

- everyone

[P2F]

Laureano seems like a shoo-in to win a Gold Glove this season.

[jays4life19]

How many games does Org need to win before we start an appreciation thread? I'm going with 6

Absolutley. But it's not awful if you can effectively succeed without missing bats at a rate done so by top Aces or great strike out pitchers. There is less room for error, but so what imo lol

 

Sanchez at his best (no blisters like today) is a pitcher that isnt seen much in today's game. Someone who succeeds by limiting hits, while walking a few batters guaranteed and doesnt strike out a lot. It is what it is. He has been good this year. Not great. But good

[Orgfiller]

Broken fingernail lol, here we go again.

[Jonn]

Just can’t count on Sanchez.

[Omar]

See you in Dunedin 2020 Sanchy.

[DigitalRock]

Bullpen arm at best for Sanchez.

[Orgfiller]

Great job Hudson, now Biagini needs to keep it going.

[saskjayfan]

See you in Dunedin 2020 Sanchy.

 

ok let's not jump to conclusions...maybe he just needs some nail glue.

[Carlos Danger]

This reminds me of that one year we were doing ok and I think we lost like 3 starting pitchers in like 3 days. Want to say it was Marcum, Morrow and Halladay? ICR... It was like May or June one year..?

It would have been Kyle Drabek, not Halladay. I also can't quite recall if Marcum was the other guy, I know Morrow and Drabek were two of them.

 

Edit: the third was Drew Hutchison

off the top of my head It was Morrow, Drabek and Hutchison in june 2012

[Orgfiller]

Grichuk is being served a steady diet of high fastballs, and he's struggling with them. Needs to adjust or lay off of those.

[Captain Adama]

Better than Syndergaard

 

I want to rescind my nomination of you for most improved poster.

[Jonn]

Will be interesting to see how Charlie Yost bridges this game to Giles tonight!

[saskjayfan]

wow....that was crushed!
