The top of this page is hilarious if you, like me, were unable to watch/follow the game, and checked here first before checking the final.

 

Y'all freaking out, in April, on the champs when a 6 run cushion goes to 4. Chill, our boys have this.

So is the scouting report on Tuve to cheat up on the outfield?

 

If so he's going to break  obliterate the doubles record.  That shit was weird today. From the 4th inning on, it was really fucking weird.

Whether he throws 10 no hitters or sucks dong the next 145 games that 6 million is gone.
Charge 10 dollars for the fake rings to make up the difference and send him to A ball.

thru 20 games:

era 2.45

whip 1.07

baa .211

in 179.2ip, 223k / 53bb

1st in k's by 20.  5th fewest walks, but everyone ahead of us has played fewer games. 

these stats are for the whole staff.  if someone wants to post just the sp stats, i'm sure they're ridiculous.

Corrected b/c I was lazy

Cleveland last season pitched 10.15 SO/9

Dodgers had 9.43 in 2016.

Detroit had 9.0 in 2013.

 

Granted, only 12% of the season is in the books, but that's a torrid pace.

Let's keep Sipp off the mound, eh?

Yeah - I was lazy the first time and went back and corrected it.  Impacts mainly to ERA and WHIP.

Just the top 3 guys:

ERA 1.02

WHIP 0.80

BAA .165

Yuli's hermano is getting called up by the blue jays.

would have been nice to land him

#4064

a topic on mlb now this morning discussed by the regular guys + stark was "do the astros have the best rotation of all time?"  obviously it's crazy early, but they basically said you feel good with any of the 5 on the hill knowing you need to win one game.  i would add tandem and throw peacock in there and you really have 6.  in crucial games, nobody would have to face the other lineup more than twice.

of course mad dog who hates the astros chimed in later and said the 1970 baltimore orioles.  just the fact this is a discussion is pleasing.

#4065

DK hasn't yet hit his stride and LMJ was really bad one time out and only started showing signs his last start.  When all 5 are clicking ... B|

Of course Russo said that - they had 3 20-game winners! That's all he needs to draw this conclusion. 

The 2011 Phillies come to mind as a great rotation. 

#4068

Several of those Braves rotations from the 1990s are up there - just on the basis of having Maddox, Glavine, Smoltz, and whoever else.  

1993 - Greg Maddux (20-10, 2.36), Tom Glavine (22-6, 3.20), Steve Avery (18-6, 2.94), John Smoltz (15-11, 3.62)

1998 - Greg Maddux (18-9, 2.22), Tom Glavine (20-6, 2.47), Denny Neagle (16-11, 3.55), Kevin Millwood (17-8, 4.08), John Smoltz (17-3, 2.90)

derosa brought up the 1998 braves.

basically all agreed that as far as "swings and misses" this staff cannot be beat.  also we have six 11k games from our starters already.  the season record is 26 by johnson/schilling's d-backs (they were the only 2 to contribute).  would be a fun record to chase.

once we're clicking offensively, look the f out.

#4072

Lolz at the "swings and misses" qualifier. 

 

Braves got a metric shit ton of 'called strikes' that weren't. 

 

If they started automated balls/strikes right now, it would actually be beneficial to both the Astros pitching staff AND hitters.

I'm sure y'all have discussed this, but does anyone have a POV on sending Fisher down and bringing White up? Fisher and Marisnick are both bottom 10 offensive players in baseball right now and they possess a similar skill set. Gattis has had his lick and is a worthless DH. White has shown promise between last year, this spring, and his time both years in Triple A. I know it's a game of streaks and such, but realistically, Marisnick could whiff 11 times in every 14 ABs and still be on the roster for the playoffs. Nothing says Fisher is actually better than White, and nothing says that Gattis from 2 years, as he ages, is coming back. I'd like to see if White couldn't be productive at DH for a bit.

#4076

Fuck White over Gattis at DH. 

 

You dont break into the majors at DH and despite yesterday's atrocities on the base paths, El Oso Blanco has proven invaluable when the shit hits the fan. 

#4078

Gattis earned himself far more than 20 games this season with his home run against the Yankees in game 7 of the ALCS last year

5 run innings are great. Why you no swing there Carlos?

(Man I hate being that guy but if it's near the zone on a full count with two outs and Jose is running, you gotta swing right?)

#4100

He got them both while off the bag.

Edit - never mind, missed the tag on Anderson.
