    Cole regression

    Finish the season low, low 3.00 ERA and all is well.

    If Altuve wants to steal a bag or make people think he wants to steal a bag he has got to take his hands off of his knees when he takes his lead off first. That's Little League ****.

    Cole hasn’t been quite as sharp the last few times out. The stuff is still nasty but not quite the same command.

    Did you really expect him to be Bob Gibson all season?

    Screw fundamentals... it’s all about pine tar, strikeouts and starting games with relievers.

    I’ll say this... with his stuff it wouldn’t shock me if he won a Cy Young. Even that homer by Martinez was on a 99 mph fastball moving up.

    Let's not talk about pine tar.

    Might upset somebody.

    I was thinking more recent (Astros pitchers?), but GB was my favorite player as a kid.

    Dude was ****ing dealing.

    OK, so, people:

    What do you do with the bullpen, starting right ****ing now?

    ETA: How do the matchups go? I dunno.

    Devo/Smith/Rondon/Harris........then

    Giles in the 9th?

    We're spoiled. 3 runs against a quality line up that has been hot is excellent.
    an 3 era is like a 2.91 in the NL

    “Gerritt hows the arm?”

    “Surprise! Your going 9!”

    No Devo and Peacock... and no Devo doesn’t pitch the 9th

    There is no way Kemp should be sent down if he keeps hitting like that.

    I think he hurt himself. He always hustles. He pulled up like that earlier this season and missed time
