Does anyone else miss the days when Halladay would start and even if he somehow gave up 3 in the first you still felt like there was a really good chance he still went the next 8 innings without giving up a run.
We were always in it with Roy on the mound. We were so spoiled. Absolute shame the team somehow managed to do absolutely nothing with that
Max’s off speed stuff is awful and they are sitting on it. He’s got 96 with life on his fastball at times and he needs to start using that way more even if it exhausts him. They are teeing off on the changeup and curveball, and trying to pace himself with 93mph fastballs isn’t keeping them honest
This era hasn’t been all that different from 2004-2008, mediocrity at its finest. Just more playoff spots to make it feel like we have a chance when we’re actually objectively second class
When we had the best offence we got steamrolled by KC’s bullpen, it’s not that simple. Winning a World Series requires an amazing all round team and we haven’t ever really had that. 2015 was the closest we’ve been since I’ve been a fan
It was a decent at bat, came out of his shoes a little on 2-0… hard to take anything away from an AB that ends in an early HBP.
I’m no expert but he seems fine behind the plate so far, first time I’ve watched him though
The original picture is supposed to be quoted, I give up on that though
Point is those dudes’ character is questionable for being convinced to do that picture
You guys are just hedging on Pearson because you are super jaded.
He’s the next Jacob Degrom, book it. Just give him this off season and next spring training and he will be ready for the starters workload.
