    Scrubb is throwing harder since his return. His fastball must have a lot of cutting action given how the MLB classifies it as a cutter.

    We've made quite a few pitchers look good the last few days.

    I just don’t see Smith rounding into form throwing 85-87.

    Man, I've never seen a manger of one of the best teams in baseball get more hate than I've seen in this chat. I'm not dusty's biggest fan, but people are acting like he's managing a 30-60 ballclub.

    Edit - I may have missed some sarcastic jokes as I've been away for a 'bit, so if it was sarcasm I apologize!

    Neither did the ump. What’s his best defense for missing that call? Probably that he wasn’t paying attention.

    However, what goes unnoticed during all of that crappy umpiring was Smith having a great inning against their 1-2-3.

    Because he is a terrible in-game manager.
