Right, Kirby was pitching to the best offense in the league. Rodriguez was pitching one of the worst. You still have to get the outs and he did, but the opponent does matter. I've made my feelings known about Cano. -

Cano did look good against the M's. But at least for me it's important to remember who the opponent was. -

Some of this has to do with good pitching by Seattle. Very good play by Gunnar to get the forceout by around 3 eyelashes. Unlike the umpire, the announcers and me, he didn't give up on the play when he fumbled the bad throw. -
Gunnar is fighting the curse of the ESPN cleats….1 for 8 with 7 Ks since putting them on. -

It's fine for GRod to get a spot on the All-Star team. I hope he doesn't warm up or pitch. -

1. From the beginning of time until roughly 1980 an average MLB game was somewhere between 1:50 and 2:30, all shorter than today's games with the pitch clock. It's not primarily the pitch clock. 2. Even if the pitch clock were to be shown to increase injuries by some some amount, do we really want to go back to a game where the average time is 3+ hours and increasing every year? The glacial pace of pre-clock baseball was killing interest in the sport. MLB had become a recurring meme online because it was sooooo slloooooowwww. I'll take 10% or 20% more injuries if it means we get a game that's played at a reasonable pace and gametimes in line with the other major sports that play multiple times a week. -
I was joking. Always make for a good laugh anytime Elias picks somebody up off the scrap heap. I actually agree with you though, his numbers at times are pretty decent. Not a bad depth piece, especially if we pull ahead of the Yankees and need someone to eat some innings late in the season.
