re: Pirates are +1.5 with Skenes pitching

[quote]Guessing Skenes will be on a pitch count?[/quote]
He will be, he has not thrown over 75 pitches in any outing this year, I doubt he'll be allowed to pitch much more than that if any. ...

Exactly, the throw was bad and that was THE issue....
re: Bob Pettit. Why does he not get more love on here?
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/10/24 at 6:53 am
[quote] Seems like he would be more revered?[/quote]
He should be - he was very simply one of the best players of his generation. And he played against the Bill Russell's, Wilt Chamberlains and Walt Bellamy's he wasn't just doing at against lilly white competition. You go back and read comments...
re: Skenes to make MLB debut on Saturday versus the Cubs

[quote]Lifelong die hard cubs fan and I hope he does great....[/quote]
Me too, Hope he does great as well. He likely will only pitch 5 innings or about 75 pitches whichever comes first. ...
re: Paul Skenes continues to dominate AAA - 6IP, 7Ks, 4H, 1BB as his ERA falls to 0.39
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/9/24 at 6:29 am
[quote]Yes, but you can’t tell that to the conspiracy theorists. He also just pitched on 4 days rest for the first time in his career[/quote]
And he'll be on a pitch restriction being as he's never pitched more than 75 pitches in a game in the minors, and mostly less than that, they won't let him...

[quote]To help Contreras get more low strikes for their pitchers, the Cardinals have positioned the veteran catcher closer to the plate than he’s been in years past.]
The Cardinals thought they could "fix" Contreras's defensive issues, which outside of a strong arm, were and are many and signific...

re: What’s wrong with Bregman?
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/8/24 at 6:39 am
He has traditionally started slow, but it's a bit he's usually coming out of it by now. Bad timing as it's a potential walk year and he by all accounts will be a free agent. ...

Just google why skenes hasn’t been called up. It has to do with his rookie contract and his length he stays with the pirates.[/quote]
Hasn't he already passed the service time threshold? I understood it to be 3 rotation cycles or 15 days, which he's surpassed by several weeks and severa...
re: Paul Skenes continues to dominate AAA - 6IP, 7Ks, 4H, 1BB as his ERA falls to 0.39
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/6/24 at 9:07 am
[quote]Interestingly he only threw 66 pitches. You would imagine Pitt would be trying to extend his pitch count each start like they had been doing and call him up once he’s been around 90-100 pitches[/quote]
It's actually pretty common with starting pitchers in the minors, the Cubs won't any of ...
re: Paul Skenes continues to dominate AAA - 6IP, 7Ks, 4H, 1BB as his ERA falls to 0.39
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/6/24 at 6:54 am
[quote]Same. I’m a Cubs fan and it will almost be an automatic loss when he plays[/quote]
He will almost certainly be on a pitch restriction, so him going more than 5 or 6 innings would be highly unlikely. I'm a Cub fan too so best case scenario 0-0 after 5 or 6 and the Cubs get to their pen bet...

re: Will LeBron go into coaching when he retires?
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/4/24 at 5:59 pm
[quote]God I hope so. He would probably do about as well as Patrick Ewing[/quote]
I think he wants badly to be Ali, but he has nowhere near the personality or charisma to pull that off....
re: Schlossnagle >>>>>>>> Johnson with the shifts
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/4/24 at 5:54 pm
[quote]The result doesn’t indicate which is a better strategy. Personally, I think using 4 outfielders only shuts down the gaps in the outfield, but creates huge holes in your infield from multiple angles.[/quote]
Just watching in real time my thought was why was he playing so deep that a routine...

re: Governor Landry will be bad for LSU overall which directly impacts athletics
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 5/2/24 at 12:24 pm
He showed his arse early - just like JBE . Don't frick with LSU. I was willing to give both a chance and they both lost me early in their tenure because of it. I was done with JBE when he threatened LSU if his taxes didn't pass, and I was done when Landry went look at me pandering without the fact...

[quote]This is why college baseball is not that popular. It’s single A level play.[/quote]
Yep, I remember a former LSU player on one of the local radio shows years ago and asked him if what was the perception of so many, if college baseball was the equivalent of AA ball.
He literally laughed....
