Who cares if he's the strike out leader when your job is to not get runs across the plate.
Not impressed with Cole this year, been much more impressed with Wade Miley despite the much lower K rate
Cole has pretty much the same xwoba as JV and is sporting a ridiculous xfip of 2.36. Buy stock in Cole's 2nd half.
Also LOLOLOLOLOL @ AggieEE
To be fair, back when he was sporting a 4 something ERA he wasn't very impressive. His fastball location wasn't very good leading to tons of HRs
Obviously I'm thrilled he's turned it around.
those are some ICE COLD takesFarmer1906 said:Farmer1906 said:AggiEE said:

I'm going to disagree. He was unlucky. His fastball stats show he was effective early too.AggiEE said:Farmer1906 said:Farmer1906 said:AggiEE said:

His command now with the fastball is a lot better than earlier in the season. More movement and not sitting there over the middle of the zone. It wasn't just luck, hitters were sitting on his fastball and managing to take it yard due to poor location
Seeing his performance last night versus back in April shows a marked improvement
ZG must've caught wind of the TexAgs shlt talking and trade rumors
Sam Holbrook
He's right next to Ron Kulpa now

On the Greinke trade topic, who are the teams we could legitimately trade him to? There can't be that many that could absorb his contract.
After he goes 4-0 this postseason with a 0.75 ERA
No one will be dreaming of trading him
ERA below 3
Good job Zack. Back on track with only 12 pitches needed that inning. Trending back in the right direction. Keep it up.bearkatag15 said:Needed 14 this inning... clearly regressing. Get back on your game Zackbearkatag15 said:
Zack had to work a little extra in that inning. Needed 13 pitches to get the 3 outs. Do better Zack...
You don't trade ZG. He's making like 20 mil a year for us and is elite.
If anything there may be an argument to trade Correa IF the haul is fills more of a need.

This is complete BS. He's doing this to throw him.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Professional pitcher
Yep. Servais is a ****ing tool. Nothing was about the pitch. All about disrupting rhythm. Bush league.Farmer1906 said:

Are all of our former catchers now managers DBs?
64mph
That curve was nasty
Now that's a 12-6 and is a thing of beauty
That's wicked slow and accurate for a K.
Prolapsed anus on that swing
Well needed 13 again this inning. You are laboring a bit Zack. You are better than this.bearkatag15 said:Good job Zack. Back on track with only 12 pitches needed that inning.

Think that's what the new kids are calling a 12-6 banger
Definitely an eephus pitch. The stones to throw that now!
What year do Castro and Stassi get to take over the managerial reigns of a team?
Don't score any more runs offense
