dodgers should be DEAD
instead are 4 back of 1st. lmao
 
they were 9.5 last saturday

 

[elcheato]

Indians should be dead too

 

[bosoxlover12]

lol
 
apparently the Yankees drafted Gerrit Cole in 2008, but he didn't sign

 

[snipezo]

its amazing how mcgowan is still throwing 97 after being injured for the past 5 years.

 

[snipezo]

Miggy Cab is just.....wow

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Well we finally have a no hitter.

 

[Mexi]

lol

27th overall and he grew up a yankee fan. must have been hard to pass it up. Not like he was a 10th rounder

 

[Mexi]

Dodgers are about to be 2.5 back lmao
We were 9.5 back last sunday. Absolutely incredible. I was hoping to be 4 or 5 back by the break but we actually be in 1st

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Unbelievable. I chose not to go see World War Z tonight so I could watch Harvey pitch -- game is in a rain delay. 

 

[snipezo]

It was good while it lasted, Jays. This shit sucks. Going all in with zero pitching depth is unacceptable. They're fucked long term.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Well at least Lester pitched well tonight.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

go figure. we actually give Harvey two runs for once and he gives up a 3 run shot. 

 

[RipCity32]

Scherzer >>>>
13-0

 

[RipCity32]

The fact the Tigers don't have one of the best records in the MLB is quite mind boggling to me.

3rd in runs in the AL. 1st in BA. One of the best starting pitching staffs in the league.

Bullpen really is that bad.
I think outside of Smyly, our bullpen is a combined 2-7. That would explain it lol.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Ellsbury finally goes yard

 

[bosoxlover12]

Scherzer >>>>
13-0

Scherzer is unbeaten with 4 ND and a 3.09ERA, while Clay is unbeaten with 3 ND and a 1.71 ERA


And Clay has a better FIP too

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Yesssss, but Clay has to get his ass back on the field.

 

[Teagz]

Scherzer is unbeaten with 4 ND and a 3.09ERA, while Clay is unbeaten with 3 ND and a 1.71 ERA


And Clay has a better FIP too

Scherzer has a lower xFIP, WHIP, tERA, SIERA, and a higher K/BB ratio.
 
 
Not to mention Buchholtz can't even stay healthy.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

When in doubt, make a poll.

 

[bosoxlover12]

FIP>xFIP imo, not anything to do with this situation I just believe its the better stat

tERA and SIERA are like 45% based off strikeouts, so using 3 stats to say "Scherzer strikes out more guys" is very redundant.




Way I see it is Buchholz has the ERA ground, Scherzer has the WHIP ground. Both very good pitchers (although Max does have the #1 offense to assist him)


I was just saying Scherzer is not >>>> Clay at all. They are pretty much equal, and I'd personally take the 1.71ERA+6.8K/game guy over the 3.09ERA+8.2K/game guy
