Horton faced 18 in 5 - 19 when he gave up the single in the top of the 6th if you look at batters faced per out. Skenes faced 20 in 5.


You think a pitcher pitched better because he faced more batters in less innings? You wanna think about that? Lol
IDK what to tell you. If you watched the game it was unquestionable that Horton was a little bit sharper. It doesn’t mean Skenes isn’t waaaaaaaaaaay better than Horton. It just means Horton was really good today and Skenes wasn’t fricking Superman (and still went 5 scoreless). It’ll be ok little buddy

are you serious with that shite about Horton? Horton faced 18 in 5 - 19 when he gave up the single in the top of the 6th if you look at batters faced per out. Skenes faced 20 in 5. The team Skenes faced has the 4th best BA in the MLB. Horton faced the 27th ranked team. Skenes gave up 4 hits; 0 runs; 2 walks and 5 Ks. He was not “on the rope”. They just worked his pitch count which is good for them. His last 6 starts 36 1/3 20 hits 3 earned runs (4 total) 44 Ks 7 bbs .75 ERA (if I did my math correct)


Dam bruh, you ok? Breathe

I don’t see why you’re asking the day before the game. You really going to “pull the trigger” if we lose tomorrow? If we win you’ll probably not either because you’ll wait for the finals. I see a pattern with you.


Asking for next year lol

Freak. Can’t judge anything based on him

recovery after games, and staying fit between starts

The knowledge, specificity, & adherence to program has increased by light years since he pitched

kids nowadays are throwing way too much at 12 and 13 with undeveloped arms

Don’t think this is even debatable

breaking balls

This is the reigning theory. But today’s pitchers don’t worry about if they’ll have TJ, they worry about when. It’s like a dam right of passage. And now it’s not a death sentence like it was 20 years ago

Best time obviously is for the finals… but if we don’t make it then you don’t get to go.


And that is the dilemma isn’t it? Lol. I think that’s why I haven’t been. I’m like a woman deciding on dinner when it comes to this kinda thing. Can’t decide and never pull the trigger

When is the best time to go to Omaha?

If you not gonna stay from start to finish…Be there for the opener and catch another couple games? Or wait til mid week or end of the week and be there for the finals?

He wasn’t even on his game today (Horton pitched better) and shut down one the top offenses in MLB. Cubs had him on the ropes but couldn’t get shite done with RISP. Bouncing him after 5 because of a high pitch count was a win in my book lol

Where do you people keep getting this from?

To be clear, I’m not calling it THE best. I’m asking if it should be considered to be among the all-timers.


It’s def among the top “climb the wall” catches. But best catches? Ehhh. It’s not that overly difficult when compared to going straight back on a ball (like the Edmonds catch). Hell, it might not be the best catch HE has made this year. Gets a 10 on the “that’s cool” scale tho

It’s a tournament. It’s a different location with a different name but there isn’t a need to re-seed just because it helps my team this year.


Correct. Nobody ever complaining about re-seeding the elite 8

This is why the teams need to be reseeded once the field is set. Of course, LSU needs to beat WV first.


You gonna re-seed the Elite 8 too?

It's not happening.


It’s like they tell on themselves lol

I know they've expressed interest in acquiring Skenes
