Lol and Cobb didn't make it through the 5th.

First Rays starter this year to not make it at least 5 innings.

 

[Macattk15]

Man.

That win the Angels had over Houston last night is going to be the beginning of their resurgence isn't it?

I see it's worked already against Chicago tonight.

 

[bozeman]

Beltran!!!

 

[darkside31337]

Cobb is also the first pitcher in the history of baseball to strike out at least 13 guys and not make it at least 5 innings.

 

[Opiate]

Lance Lynn has the highest ERA of all 5 of the Cardinals' starting pitchers. He's a bum.

2.72 ERA
5-1
3.09 FIP
43 IP
47 SO
16 BB

It's difficult, frankly, to decide who our "worst" SP is. By empirical standards it's almost certainly Jake Westbrook, who has a 1.62 ERA in 6 starts.

 

[Dominican Power]

Overbay comes through again.

Gonna suck when that ol' bitch Regression starts to hit.

[3N16MA]

Will take that DP.

Westbrook has been a magician so far. That ERA is helping to hide who he really is.

It certainly will on Westbrook. But Miller is the real deal, Wainright is too, and Lance Lynn is only modest overperforming his historic norms. We just have a fantastic rotation. The real "regression," if it hits, would be injury. The true miracle is having the 5 starters you expect to start the season actually start the season and then keep pitching without interruption.

 

[CygnusXS]

West coast games suck so much. Another 45 minutes until start time.

Oh I was speaking directly about Westbrook. A 13 year career ERA in the 4's will not suddenly stay sub 2 is all.

And if that "regression" happens, it's WACHA TIME! Plus, Mo just said a couple innings ago on the Cards broadcast that they're sending Chris Carpenter down to Florida and he'll be training as if to be a starter and they'll slide him into the bullpen if he's not needed in the rotation.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Angels screwing up their lead.

 

[jakncoke]

Yeah they fucking suck, specially during the week. Miss so much because cant stay up till 1-2 to see the end of them

5 pitch inning ftw

hey hey don't count the white sox out yet

yep.

Volquez really turned things around.

 

[Dominican Power]

Ogando giving up runs to The Astros?

 

[Opiate]

Absolutely. I'll be perfectly happy getting this decent year out of him and then letting him walk. He's served us for exactly what we paid him for; a serviceable middle of the rotation starter.

 

[rando14]

englols tryna give up the lead immediately after haha

 

[Dominican Power]

ha

 

[rando14]

FUCK THE ANGELS

 

[3N16MA]

Don't blow this Hughes.

EDIT: He blew it.

 

[Dominican Power]

Don't blow this Hughes.

EDIT: He blew it.

Hughes can't stand pitching with a significant lead.

 

[Carlbeego]

Sup Jays?

 

[3N16MA]

Time to take back the lead.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Goddammit Angels.

Mike Trout could use a moustache.

 

[Alex Anderson]

Overbay

Beast of the East!

 

[Dominican Power]

Overbay is killing The Royals. George Brett must be furious that replacement players are still smashing his team.

 

[3N16MA]

Overbay on fire.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Damn it Chen.

 

[3N16MA]

That a boy Nelson.

 

[Dominican Power]

Damn it Chen.

Royals are property of The New York Yankees.

 

[Doogdogg]

Wow Great game by Lester. Clay's pitching tomorrow, he's going to 1 up his teammate.

 

[jakncoke]

Cutch had 2 bases loaded and really did nothing with it -_-

 

[Dominican Power]

Gardy!!!!

 

[3N16MA]

Gardy was flying. I think he left the ground.

 

[Dominican Power]

CANO!!!!!


Same ol' Bruce Chen.

 

[Alex Anderson]

hits hits hits hits

hits hits hits hits

do do do do do hits

 

[3N16MA]

5 run lead. Lets not blow it like the last one.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

God I hate the Yankees.

 

[jakncoke]

lol killed it


we're going to blow this game /self

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Well here comes the test to see just how badly we suck.

 

[jakncoke]

DFA please

 

[Duane Cunningham]

MOOOOOOOOSE

 

[3N16MA]

Hughes serving meatballs.

 

[2Crisis]

[Duane Cunningham]

Royals are property of The New York Yankees.
