I doubt Burnes gets 200 K's this season. I'm fine with him pitching without a ton of swing-and-miss if he can induce weak contact. The jury is still out.

Maybe we can afford him if he only has 199 Ks.

I didn't pick him on my bingo card for 199 innings. Doubt he gets 199 Ks.

I'll take your question seriously when you spell Holliday correctly and use a question mark.

I did spill it right, but the spell check said I was wrong.  Remember it is 420 day.

You certainly aren't a rookie.

Oh, Burnes took one off the ass? I missed that. That might be why there is no swing-and-miss.

No hitter in Philly was just broken up.

7 was a called strike....

Local boy Gavin Sheets has a real shot at making the All-Star team, since someone has to out of that roster. Between him and Garrett Crochet, basically.

I like Gavin Sheets. I met his Dad at work. I thought he looked familiar and it took a bit of wracking my memories to realise he was Larry and had played for the Orioles.

Zerpa in, LHP.

This umpire has had a ankle high strike zone all game long. He doesn't like pitches in the top of the boxed strike zone either and calls them balls.
