I PAID 2.99 FOR THIS?!

Fucking Ben Fransisco.

 

[suEcide]

There's #1. Still the second inning.

#2. Fucking Buerhle.

 

[Lexxism]

Wooo. Another home run.

 

[suEcide]

#2. Fucking Buerhle.

#3. One more before he's pulled. Useless fat fuck.

 

[Lexxism]

#3 Home run LMAO

 

[jello44]

lol Nunez

 

[sangreal]

Nunez is a pro at not getting errors when he fucks up

 

[weekend_warrior]

That's BS, he jumped into that pitch.

 

[Dominican Power]

Nunez you're so awful.

 

[jello44]

Holy crap, runs!

Holy moly, tie game!

 

[Alex Anderson]

Phuckin' Phelps. Had to have the bad inning

 

[Dominican Power]

All these Yankee starters are just awful.

 

[Brinbe]

...sigh. What's even sadder is buehrle's contract these next few years. We need to dump him ASAP, if we can, so he can go be happy with his pitbull again.

 

[Carlbeego]

We need Wang.

 

[jello44]

Bad Margo, Bad!

Sweet Jesus, man. Years? As in plural? How many is he signed on for?

 

[Syrinx]

Sweet Jesus, man. Years? As in plural? How many is he signed on for?

I think he signed a four-year deal with the Marlins, so I think you guys are stuck with his contract through 2015.

 

[Lexxism]

Sweet Jesus, man. Years? As in plural? How many is he signed on for?

His contract is $58M in 4 years. 2015 will be the end of the contract. He is earning $11M this year.

 

[CygnusXS]

Harper taken out of the game after appearing to strain... something... on a checked swing. Possibly his oblique.

 

[Askani]

Mendoza implosion. Wonderfull!

Fuck.

 

[Matugi]

bryce please be okay

 

[jello44]

AGGGHHHHHH

If Altuve didn't get picked off, he would have scored easily off that double.

Well, it is Atlanta, strained obliques are given out like candy there, and they got plenty spare since Chipper retired.

 

[Riggs]

Napoli on that fuckin nitro.

That HR was so far ...

 

[weekend_warrior]

Nunez you're so awesome!

 

[Ziek]

Napoli on that fuckin nitro.

Jesus man.

I wish they'd give the length on that. What a monster shot.

 

[CygnusXS]

I'm thinking the Braves lose this one.

 

[rando14]

god damn buccholz is hot fiyah

 

[Matugi]

Jordan Zimmermann will win Cy Young

 

[Riggs]

Jesus man.

I wish they'd give the length on that. What a monster shot.

Me too bro the camera guy fucked up he couldn't track the ball lol.

 

[Askani]

Let another pitcher continue to get shelled before you pull him.

Y u no use bullpen Yost?

He's given up 6. Why is he still in? Why? Why?

 

[sangreal]

I dont think Kay has any idea how to respond when Cone starts talking about BABIP

 

[McNei1y]

Jordan Zimmerman
<Cy Young Winner>

 

[CygnusXS]

Aw well. Tomorrow we feast on the rotting corpse of Dan Haren.

 

[sangreal]

Of course it looks easy when Robbie walks to first

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Jordan Zimmermann will win Cy Young

There's more than a handful of candidates ahead of him at this point.

you've gotta be shittin me. My entire starting outfield is on the DL

 

[Matugi]

Only Harvey and Bumgarner have played better, and even then by not even a small margin.

And Wainwright, Latos, Ryu, Lee, Kershaw, Burnett. And some guy named Patrick Corbin.

Though I can see how looking only at ERA to judge pitchers can complicate things.

He's got one of the best WHIPs, K/BB, QS%, and pitches/inning. Only thing holding him back compared to the others is K/9, but he gets a lot of fly balls (which I imagine would lower his WAR), but it's also allowed him to go the distance twice.

 

[suEcide]

Prediction: jays score ten runs in the bottom of the 9th to win the game. It's also fair to note I'm on hour three of my peyote trip.

lol dude relax it's been one month.

lol i'm just kinda upset that he assumed i was only looking at ERA.

He's got WHIP in his favor but can he sustain that .188 BABIP? There's 11 starters with enough innings ahead of him in K/BB. There's 8 guys ahead him in QS (even more if you go by QS%).

If you go by ESPN Cy Predictor, Harvey/Wainwright/Bumgardner are ahead of him. So is Jim Henderson but it's highly unlikely a reliever wins it so let's toss that if you wish. Kershaw/Lynn are right behind (<1 pt) Zimmermann in "Cy Young points".

[Matugi]

That BABIP is probably why his DIPS is so low. The Nats' defense only appears to show up when Zimmermann is playing (kinda like how the offense disappears when Stras plays...1.83 run support).

 

[sangreal]

lol i'm just kinda upset that he assumed i was only looking at ERA.

To be fair, that's probably what the Writers Association will look at. Well, I suppose Wins too

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Let's go Dodgers!

Hanley needs to lay off those butterfingers.
