    Getting sick of the crap pitching. 40 pitches in the 2nd inning?? Seems like every night now.

    He has 38 pitches through 2 innings. Ideally, you aim for about 15/inning, so it's not too much worse. If the team was playing well, we'd all just be impressed by how good he was to get out a bases-loaded, no-out mess.

    That was a weird play. Can't say I've ever seen one like that before.

    That may have been true but he needs to show more now that he's on this level.

    Yep. Could've finished a couple of guys off earlier, but his stuff looks up to par, and he's managed the tough situations well.

    Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa....

    Don't be blamin' now! :)

    They've been "stinking" before I made the thread.

    11-12 since the ASB
    or that when one guy comes back from injury, another two go down.
    or after starting 38-16 in the first two months, they're 33-25 in the last two months

    Despite all that, they still have the 2nd best record, still will likely win the division & yes, will still likely make the playoffs.

    Jinx? Pissing off the baseball Gods? I can't do that.

    I feel like a popout ought to count for as 1.5 at-bats against your average.
