    Ok the Ump f***ed him there.
  2. THANOS
    Sanchez has missed every spot so far tonight.
  3. THANOS
    That's what I'm most interested in from him in this start.
  4. THANOS
    Thank you.
  5. THANOS
    I think Stro and Happ could outperform that expectation, but I do expect something close to that from Dickey, Estrada, Sanchez (not buying into the change just yet).
  6. THANOS
    I'm going to buy into new Sanchez for this game at least. I'm thinking: 7 IP, 6 K, 0 BB, 5 hits, 2 R

    http://m.mlb.com/tor/video/topic/73955164/v573264883/tortb-pillar-covers-92-feet-to-make-diving-catch/?c_id=tor Statcast on Pillar's catch! 97 route efficiency!
  8. THANOS
    He topped out at 98 mph last season, but averaged 94.3. http://i.snag.gy/5j8KS.jpg

    Storen going all racist. KKK.
  10. THANOS
    He does get strikeouts though with a 10 K/9 in 2015, which Janssen never could.
  11. THANOS
    Good job Thole.
  12. THANOS
    The f***? A 90 mph fastball down the middle. Storen offering some juicy morsels to tee off on.
  13. THANOS
    I really can't wait until Travis returns and Pillar is removed from the lead-off spot
  14. THANOS
    Keirmaier's mortal?
  15. THANOS
    f*** right off, the same thing happened in Kansas last season with that Amish scrub and they ruled that in their favor.
  16. THANOS
    The movement on that oppo taco was sick!
  17. THANOS
    Saunders swinging through a low 90s fastball straight down the middle.
  18. THANOS
    Very lucky.
  19. THANOS
    Vintage Dickey.
  20. THANOS
    Bautista having a great at-bat at least.
  21. THANOS
    Many strikeout pitchers drop their K-rate by 2 points or so in their 1st season in the MLB, but it begins to climb back in following seasons. This is true with guys like Kershaw, Archer, Kluber, etc. There's also strange cases like deGrom where it increases exponentially in the majors from the minors.
  22. THANOS
    Agreed. It's just, for some reason, this conversation changed into whether Stro was capable of being a strikeouts pitcher.
  23. THANOS
    No, but it shouldn't drop to 6 k/9 either.
  24. THANOS
    This was before his 1st call up. http://i.snag.gy/UciLo.jpg He's been a strikeout guy his entire career before getting called up. It's obvious that there was a change of direction/thinking with him, whether it was advice from someone else or his own. Either way, I'm questioning why he made the trade-off? His FIP was still pretty decent with all of those K's and his BB/9 was good as well.
  25. THANOS
    I understand that shooting for groundballs minimizes his hard hit and homerun rates, but, personally, I really enjoyed his K-rate in the minors and dislike the trade-off. I just don't think that the trade-off is all that smart. I mean, Kershaw compiled 232 IP last year as a strikeout pitcher, so why can't Stroman pitch the way he did in the minors, with that >10 K/9?
