Kind of looked like they had a back up ball to give her. Maybe from BP?

So you think Strom (and our current pitching coaches) knew it was hurting him but let him keep doing it?
Do you think none of Vince Young's coaches knew he had a jacked up throwing motion?

Or that Jason Kidd had a jacked up shooting motion?

You mean 10x all star and hall of famer Jason Kidd?

Pitching is an art- guys all have different wind-ups and arm slots. You go with what works.


Unless your Odo, amirite?

should be a really fun game tomorrow with Greinke on the mound.

has not gone past 6 innings in any of his 12 starts.

been very good at home, but 6.90 ERA on the road

So we should expect 7 innings with 3 hits and no runs?
father time has taken his toll

6.90 road ERA was about right

Yeah…probably should have retired. But then again, if I was making $13 million this year I'd probably be pitching too.

That could be it. Looked like the dad was motioning to his kid to give her the ball. Would have been a pretty cool move.

We aren't talking about wind ups or arms slots though. We're talking about an intricate pre-pitch routine. Any coach of any repetition sport will tell you that simple and easy to repeat is best.

Retire! Ha, there are enough bad teams for him to find a job. Lots of innings needed for each team. Glad he made his way back to KC

shades of 2013-16 Tuve. He was once the infield hit king.

It's going to be really interesting to see what this lineup looks like when Uncle Mike gets back.

I REALLY like Pena in the 2 spot.

Bregman is hitting the ball well and they just refused to pitch to Yordan. Nice.

Yordan is approaching Barry Bonds level respect.

What would Yordan on steroids look like?

It's been great to see Bregman hitting well the last couple of weeks

Would be great if he finished the season at around the .270 mark with 25 HR

If he finishes with a .270 batting avg that means he probably continues to hit over .320 the rest of the season and we likely finish with the best record in the league

You rolled the dice third time through. 4th time is a definite no fly zone.

Hopefully Garcia figures it out soon. He might not make the playoff roster at this point

Playing devil's advocate, if we go down to 4 starters, I think he would work well as a 2-3 inning change of pace guy. I love Garcia's stuff, it obviously has played up well in the past. I think he figures it out.

I mean he's raised his average 30 points in 3 weeks. It's doable for him to hit the .270 mark in 2 months
