It's not my money, but the O's really should just release Davis and eat the contract.
Yup himNed Colleti? He did great all while having to suffer from McCourts fucking the franchise up.
Half a game now.The Mets have gone from being laughed at for trading for one of the best starting pitchers. To one game out of the wild card in two weeks.
Obviously it's going to end up being a mets vs yankees world series with the mets taking it in 5 so you might as well start rooting for them now :P
Aren't there always stories about how the Yankees newly acquired pitchers are always adding velocity? I think the blame for rotation woes this year is more due to injuries. I'd bet CC and Paxton have been largely ineffective because of injuries they've been nursing and Happ is just Happ.I was actually shocked when Boone retained Rothschild. Usually when a new manager is hired, he brings in a whole new staff as well.

Paxton definitely hasn't been the same since he came back from the IL. His fb command has been bad. I remember Axisa writing about it.I haven't heard that. Paxton's velocity is about the same as when he was in Seattle. Tanaka and CC's velocity has gone down due to age. Happ is about the same.
The Astros on the other hand though....
astros extending the protective netting. very good decision imo.

lol you had me right until Ozzie Smith.Ugh. Well people, the pussification of baseball is upon us. Why can't these people stop using their cell phones and make Ozzie Smith catches to save children and the elderly? Disgusting.
If you can't see the tweet, Yankees/White Sox at the Field of Dreams August 13th, 2020

The Yankees are notoriously good at adding velocity to 17-23 year old minor leaguers once they get into their system. But yeah they're not getting 34 year olds to miraculously throw 5 mph harder or whatever.That's Houston where guys magically get a few extra ticks on the radar (see: Verlander, Justin).

Yea Greinke was throwing 97 the other night. Giant eyeroll emoji.The Yankees are notoriously good at adding velocity to 17-23 year old minor leaguers once they get into their system. But yeah they're not getting 34 year olds to miraculously throw 5 mph harder or whatever.
Pretty sure Det pumped their gun up too. They got excited with young Verlander and guys like joel zumaya years ago.Yea Greinke was throwing 97 the either night. Giant eyeroll emoji.
Verlander didn't add velocity after coming to Houston. A year or two or more? before being traded he had ab surgery and needed to rebuild his core strength. He talked about it in a few interviews.

Agin he didn't add velocity after coming to Houston.Not just added velocity, but spin rate as well. I'm not saying they're juicing him or anything, just guys hitting 35/36 rarely see up ticks like he's seen (coming back from injury or not).
Twins have no desire to win anymore. Handing runs to the Indians like candy.
Would be worse if the ump wasn't handing out strikes to cimber like candy. Jesus his pitches were 5 inches outside for strikes.To borrow a line from boxter432, Cimber is handing the Twins runs like candy.

Guessing this is about Gardner?
As much as I want to put it on Happ the inning should have been over twice before that bomb.
