Dude is ridiculous. I love watching him pitch. Someone mentioned it earlier, but I get excited and look forward to it all day when I know he's pitching. He pitched a beautiful game today.

Loses the no-hitter, misses the Maddux. Send him down.


But seriously, Bauer is becoming more expendable and valuable with each passing day.

Especially when you consider what Clevinger is looking like if healthy. I’d almost consider going for it this year with all 3 + a bat or 2(Puig?) then trading Bauer in the offseason.

I mean, even without Bauer, we still have some order of Clevinger, Bieber, Plesac, Kluber (should be stretched out by the playoffs), Civale, Plutko. Then I have to figure Karinchak will be up to bolster the pen, so even without Bauer, our staff is nasty.

If we can get a couple solid young guys to contribute this year, we're all of a sudden in great shape for several more years.

Another complete game win for Biebs. No one else has more than two.

Last three games

9IP 2ER 5Hits 8K's vs Angels
7IP 2ER 9Hits 8K's vs Astros
9IP 0ER 1Hit 10K's vs Toronto

Firmly planting himself in the top 3 of Cy Young voting. However, the gap between him and Cole/Verlander is HUGE. Needs 2014 Corey Kluber numbers to close the gap!

Was it you who hit the BIN on my Ginter X mini?

If so, thank you for the purchase!

It was not me, I'm focusing on 2018 stuff. I think I'll do the basic flagship rainbows from other releases but player collections are too hard these days!

Probably one more regular season start left!

Season Stats
15-7
3.23 ERA
1.03 WHIP
3 Complete Games (2 Shutouts)
208.2 IP
252 K's
10.9 K/9
5.1 WAR

Helluva of a first full season in the big leagues! The HR total is up and this is the most innings he has ever thrown. I like him as the Indians number 2, well I guess 1 or would he be #3? Anyway, Indians rotation still looks strong for 2020!

I think the thing that impresses me the most is the command. He seems to be able to hit any spot he wants, all the time. Can’t recall a young pitcher who always knows exactly where the ball is going. So advanced for such a young guy.

Look at the BB rates for Bieber, Buehler, and Flaherty.

If you're going to put money into a pitcher, pick the guy who can gas people with control. Guys who throw hard but don't have good control won't ever accumulate the innings necessary to be truly elite.

Scherzer and Verlander were flamethrowers with control problems as young pitchers.

I wouldn’t say for sure. But certainly a quality starter at this point

Biebs was a godsend to my fantasy team. Found out I had a flagship gold RC the other day, too

I’m definitely a fan of his stuff as well. I need to get more of his stuff scanned in. I’ll at least share this one for now.
