The split did him in. Whodathunkit?

Thank God MW caught that one. Brach was pretty nasty tonight.

Would've loved to go to one of the games at National Park but I most likely won't be able to make it.

Got the Brew and Beer ticket.Good deal.

You're missing my point.

I'm not saying who's pitching shouldn't matter. I'm saying a good catcher/above average pitch framer will help pitchers.

Wieters team ERA 4.13

Joseph team ERA 4.63

Can the O's offense finally wake up? Need insurance here.

How does that deal work?

Catcher ERA and Pitch Framing are not really things.

That is probably true, but this whole concept of framing still seems to me to be deliberately trying to fool the umpire by using your movements to create a visual illusion and distraction. It should be against the rules, imho.

MW was the catcher both times Bundy got into the sixth with a no hitter.

Brach wasn't chasing his body like a few times over the month when he struggled and didn't have the tail to it. His stuff looked lot more like first half.

Then what are they?

If the pitcher hots his spots. For the most part, the Orioles pitchers can't command their pitches. I don't think Wieters is as bad at framing as you do. Agree to disagree. I respect your point of view.

Kim. Is ON!

He was good but with our luck lately it is a wonder a bloop didn't fall.

Kim knows what we needed right there.
