Jose Berrios has the highest totals of anybody under 30 with a whopping 1093 strikeouts and 80 wins at age 29....

Gonna make people really start to appreciate what Kershaw, Verlander, and Scherzer have accomplished....

They'll just move the goal posts so others get in.

Yes, mostly because comparing players (and people) of different eras frequently doesn’t make sense and isn’t fair.

This Abbott fellow is pretty decent.

Picked up a couple of nice 2021 Sterling Superfractor autos:

I am glad they are getting Shane out until after the ASG so he can get healed up. I am hoping for an amazing second half!

I had to have this one when I saw it pop up on ebay. He has looked great lately.

Haha- the name is just Jimmie Foxx's 2 nicknames put together but it works perfect for 2 cards also.

Thanks! I was excited to add these!

Your McClanahan collection is worthy of the ol Beckett spotlight article
Here hoping for a healthy and productive second half for him.

rippev · 07-03-2023, 10:57 PM

I really wonder if the Pirates will look to extend or move Mitch Keller. He is absolutely dealing right now.

I was really happy that he’s getting this rest and I’m excited to see him get back on track.

I didn’t even know they do the Beckett spotlight anymore.

Manoah had a much better outing today in a Double-A game, striking out 10 and giving up just 3 hits in 5 innings.

That doesn’t mean back to being a Cy Young contender yet, but it does ease concerns about the brutal FCL stat line last week.

Luzardo for Cy Young!

Well, maybe not quite yet. But I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he pushes his way into the conversation…

Alek Manoah? More like Alek Manure, am I right?

At least Jesus is my savior...

eye4talent · 07-07-2023, 07:20 PM

Manoah’s back!

Granted, it’s just one start and against the Tigers. But it’s nice to see him competitive again.

Sandy seems to be rising from the dead as well.

Still a ways away (2026 or 2027) but MLB teams are gonna be tripping over themselves trying to land Rori Sasaki. 103 mph heat and he's only 21!

Good to see Corbin Burnes looking like his old self again

cjraleigh · 07-15-2023, 01:25 PM

It's been 11 weeks since the last update, so thought it would be a good time to check in.

Here is every 25 year old starter's Game Score this year (10 start minimum).

Quite a bit has changed since April, but Strider and McClanahan still lead the way.

Amazing to see not only 3 Mariners in the top 10, but 3 Marlins as well. Atlanta with 2 ain't too shabby either. A fun time to follow young pitchers, for sure.

ESPN GAME SCORE LEADERBOARD THROUGH JULY 14th
25 or younger as of March 1st.

https://www.espn.com/mlb/stats/daily.../type/pitching
Formula: 50 + 1*Outs + 2*IP after the 4th + 1*K - 2*H - 4*ER - 2*UnearnedRuns - 1*BB

If you don't play fantasy baseball, you might not have noticed Nick Pivetta last night...

https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boston-...ics-430717111/

6 no-hit innings, 2 walks, 13 Ks.

Past 30-days: 21-2/3 inn, 3 wins, 38 Ks, 2.08 ERA, 0.65 WHIP (15.78 K/9)

Rage · 07-18-2023, 12:22 PM

Canning still alive, career high in pitches-120 and Ks-12 last night vs NYY

It’s interesting that he’s found this success while pitching purely as a long reliever/piggybacker. But whatever works…

Last night, of course, was against the Las Vegas Aviators…
