Home runs do win you playoff games though. The Astros won 4 games alone off of three -run shots, and it should have been 5 if not for Verlander’s...
Chris Paul should have won MVP in his age 22 season, he's so good that people forget about the massive "What If" about his knee injury.
Ironically enough, Mike D'Antoni would be perfect for this young team. They don't need to be championship caliber, or even good, just able to play...
I decided to punch in those numbers to see if they make any sense, and Pena would have to hit nothing but singles to get an OPS below 1.170 while...
"Young" is subjective, didn't break rookie status until 2019, his age 22 season. He'll be 29 after his first FA year. On the other hand, with how...
I’m not sure about Verlander, we already have a competent 6 man rotation without him, and that money should be thrown at resigning Tucker and...
The shooting should come around eventually, nobody at that height shoots 90% from the FT line as a rookie if they suck at shooting. I was the...
Easy, if his adjustment of removing the leg kick and quickening up his swing holds from last august into next season, he could easily crank out a...
I remember seeing not only Astros 2017 champs gear before game 7, but even players on their Baseball Reference pages being listed as Champions...
Yes, he either needs to start game 7 or be ready go the the last 9 outs of that game.
He’s going to qualifying for a win after 5, isn’t he? The most stressful 5 innings of 1 run ball incoming.
He and Jake Meyers are both only 6’ yet look 6’3” because they’re huge.
Hold on to your butts, Verlander’s coming back out for 4. :confused::confused::eek::eek:
Noah wasn’t getting away with hanging a curveball twice in the same spot, Pena showed Cortes that already.
Those innings will loom huge if the Phillies lose this.
Verlander HAS to get pulled after this, even if he gets out clean. Even his high fastball is getting lit up now.
He then proceeds to throw 6 fastballs, only one for a strike. He’s cooked, take him out.
Another 1-2-3 inning. Both teams with huge missed opportunities, but Noah’s getting stronger while Justin gets weaker.
Imagine getting paid 25 million to singlehandedly throw a World Series. This must be how dodger fans felt watching Darvish pitch in 2017.
Chokelander about to give up a three run jack to Shwarber to end the game, all with two outs.
