The only thing he has to do now is cut down on the number of line drives he allows (13 to 89 batters).

How does one actually *do* that? (I assume it's about movement on the pitch, thus making it hard to hit squarely, but everybody wants that anyway, right?)

At the risk of getting yelled at:rolleyes: , count me in the group believing that Bedard should be traded for an impact bat, either on his own or as part of a package. It's time to sell while his val

Every season was Sports Guy season, but the trade deadlines were a special time for that guy. Of course, if he were running things there wouldn't have been any players left by the deadline. He'd have traded them all off in May. 

He truly was a special internet talent. I really enjoyed him most of the time, but he'd lead the whole site down rabbit holes that had (often) no basis in reality.

      One run and 2 XBH’s in the last 13 innings. Doesn’t matter how good the pitching. If they’re just scattering a few singles it’s gonna be tough to win.

      Johnson, who had a degree in mathematics and an abiding curiosity in the field, would offer unsolicited advice to Jim Palmer and Dave McNally, the perennial 20-game winners.     “You’re in an unfavorable chance deviation,” Johnson would tell them, to puzzled annoyance. “You’re trying to throw for the corners, and you’re missing a foot away or you’re missing right down the middle. So I suggest, when you’re in an unfavorable chance deviation, throw it down the middle and you’ll hit the corners.” After that, Johnson said, the pitchers called him Dumb-Dumb.  Johnson, of course, was anything but stupid. When most of the baseball world sniffed at a book called “Percentage Baseball,”written in the 1960s by a Baltimore mathematician named Earnshaw Cook, Johnson called the author, met him for lunch and got an autographed copy. To supplement his income one winter, Johnson made speeches at high schools on behalf of a defense contractor, encouraging students to enter the computer field.   https://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/19/sports/baseball/davey-johnson-baseballs-oldest-manager-leading-washingtons-youth-movement.html?unlocked_article_code=1.100.c8eH.YaWx09n9u8hS&smid=url-share

      A week or two ago I thought about Sandoval with LAA as a possible #5 starter type.    I see he hurt his elbow. It’s remarkable.

      Cowser and the strikeouts.

      By Uli2001 · Posted

      Cowser is probably going to figure it out and have a productive career. But if a deal presented itself to trade him (out of the division) for a reliable starter with control, the O's should make it in a heartbeat. Let Colton figure it out on someone else's time. The Orioles desperately need quality pitching.

      St. Louis did can’t remember about the Reds. I don’t know what it is about teams located in the center of the country. Even though the Astros are in the AL West Division they are still in that part of the US.

      Pena had that chop double that bounced over Urias's head yesterday, so it must be somewhat hard.

      Mateo is a utility player not a guy who starts 140 games a season. Time for him to shift into that role.
