Around Baseball 2021

[G-Snarls]

Will see how he holds up late into the game. Last start he struck out 8 of 9, but left after 3 innings. Fingers crossed.

 

He also said he felt the problem was from swinging the bat, not throwing

[G-Snarls]

DeGrom has faced 23 straight batters without giving up a hit

 

Every game there are crazy stats you can spout

[Bluebombers]

Impressive...must be close to a record?

[Benito]

It's criminal he even has 2 losses. 14ip 8h 2er 1bb 23so in those 2 losses.

[Bluebombers]

Stupid me, I guess 27 is pretty good

[wilko]

Sanchez on 60 day DL with blister issues again. RIP.

How about oral hershisers consecutive scoreless innings record of 59

Tough to beat that one

[BTS]

Ozzie Albies is having a real bad time

lol... deGrom is must watch tv.

[Benito]

It's almost comical how some pitchers just can't seem get any run support. Offence really needs to score more runs for deGrom. Who is this Muller guy that is holding them to 1 run?

[BTS]

It remains absurd that the Mets subject their pitchers to Dom Smith in the OF.

That was horrawful.

[Spanky__99]

deGrom's done for the day.

He lowered his ERA from 0.54 to 0.50

 

Lmfao

[RustyTrombone]

Does Degrom win Cy Young if he only throws 150 innings?

yes.

12 straight starts with 1 ER allowed or fewer. MLB record.

[BTS]

yes

[Dr. Dinger]

If DeGrom has the best pitching season of all time, he deserves MVP too. That's beyond "in play" and moving increasingly toward "likely" IMO.

[RustyTrombone]

So how many innings would Degrom have to throw to NOT win the CY assuming he keeps pitching like he is now? 100? 120?

[Spanky__99]

Did Buxton leave injured already? If that's the case, man, lol.

Wouldn't that really depend on other starters IP, I don't think we'll see many guys going to 200 innings after last year's shortened season. deGrom would have to get hurt to go less than 150 I believe.

Records/trivia Jacob deGrom created today:

 

- deGrom was the first pitcher inspected by umps for sticky substances under the new league mandate. | Video

 

- deGrom became the first player in MLB history to pitch 12 straight starts allowing 1 run or less.

 

- deGrom broke the record for most consecutive hitters retired in the 1st inning, with 34.

 

- deGrom left the game with a 2.49 ERA and a 10.7 K/9 in 195 career starts. No other pitcher in MLB history with at least 70 starts has posted a sub 2.50 ERA with 10+ K/9 at any point in their career. | Source

 

And he caught this comebacker, because why not.

[TwistedLogic]

Angel Hernandez misses an easy strike three call (3rd pitch of this at-bat). Batter goes on to hit a homer two pitches later to break up the Astros no-hitter in the 8th inning.

 

[Spanky__99]

The Snakes Won, it's a festivus miracle! Seriously though, imagine this forum if the Jays lost 40 of their last 45 games? Anarchy!!!

[Spanky__99]

Yup, he did, left hand contusion after getting beaned by an Odorizzi heater, x-rays to come next.

 

This dude has the worst luck ever.

Rough. At a certain point though, you gotta stop saying its “bad luck”.

 

Some people have weaker bodies than others.

... He got hit in the hand by a pitch.

Well, maybe if that moron didn't have ball magnets surgically installed into his hand, he wouldn't be so injury prone!

 

Friccin' moron!

To be fair guys, Buxton has himself an extensive past on the IL. But, yeah... nailed by a pitch in on the hands is definitely bad luck, lol.

 

Buxton's injury history

 

He's missed time this season with hamstring, knee and now hip injuries, and he's played just 150 of a possible 252 games since 2019. And that's after he missed almost the entire 2018 season. Buxton's failed to play a 100 games for the 4th consecutive year. May 7, 2021

 

He's flippin' hexed!
