I get what you're saying. But, once you have the ilk on your arse cheek, it ain't never coming off.

Next thing you know, you'll be giving other fans brain damage, throwing beers on kids, and joining MS-13.

No Super Jack

I guess Kessinger will have to suffice

I saw Stubbs in the box score yesterday. Surely not, huh? Must be a different one

Yeah, I thought I remembered that, but my memory isn't what it used to be

Has he fooled anyone since around 2018?

I'm SO glad we held onto him and didn't trade him when his value was high...........

No walks is a good sign.

Basically all I'm looking for. If he can maintain control maybe he can be salvaged into a functional reliever.


Meanwhile Altuve is still locked into playoff form. 0-3 with 3 strikeouts.

It seems his stuff has evolved to where the offspeed stuff is still great but his fastball has flattened out. Now since it's a first spring start, I assume his velo was down from its usual as well. Online comments seem to indicate it's the fastball that got hit today while the other pitches induced swings and misses.

In a post game interview he said he's dropped his arm slot which helps his fastball velo but he said he doesn't know what velo was today. I watched one half inning today and he did throw a pretty good slider for a whiff buti wasn't watching close enough to see what they were hitting off him

Here's that postgame interview. He doesn't come across as terribly genuine.

He's trying too hard to sound mature and intelligent. It comes off as fake. I'm rooting for him but that video squares with the idea that he is his own worst enemy.

It did sound like he’s been coached better from the PR side than he obviously has from a pitching side
