That pitch. Just why.

Trueblue · 07-21-2023, 09:41 PM

Man, it's always the secondary stuff that batters are hunting. Feel like he needs to go fastball/sinker heavy for a few games to reset the targeting.

Trueblue · 07-21-2023, 09:53 PM

Yeah. Standing by my comment.

okumeister · 07-21-2023, 09:57 PM

Bust!!!!

Jk

seanrs1 · 07-21-2023, 10:01 PM

Why is he giving up so many HR?

Slug fest in Anaheim!

Trueblue · 07-21-2023, 10:33 PM

Guess he had a pitch count limit tonight. Would have liked to see that 10th K. Oh well. Get the win I guess.

The things you find in your COMC account...
I remember having purchased the Heritage black (paper) on the platform, but not sure if I had sent the silver pack green ref and B&W color parallel /10 myself.
Just glad that I had them saved as "NOT FOR SALE".
The B&W is off to PSA with COMC's new grading submission option.

Woooow man, Gratz. Those are some nice finds in the account, pfffff. I would love to have that Black & White Variation, such a beautiful card. I've got a base version and will have to stay content with that! You think that's a $4k+ card? Gotta be right? $6k? More? I mean, it's on demand but it's crazy cool and super rare.

Why do the Angels insist on running him out there to pitch game after game when his finger isn't right?

hammertime · 07-21-2023, 11:16 PM

Well it wasn't pretty but he got the W.

Hmmm, I don't know if it's that high honestly.
I don't see any of the same /10 variation sold recently on eBay, but the slightly less rare parallels seem to be selling for around $1k.
It's also On-Demand product, so the popularity might not be as high as other pack pulled products, though I am a fan of the B&W set every year myself.

Too many breaking balls.

If its not that high yet, my guess is it will be at some point as more people come to understand that card's significance. One of the most beautiful Shohei rookies in my opinion, and there's only 10.

He said he had zero issues with his finger tonight.

KhalDrogo · 07-22-2023, 05:46 AM

Command just isn’t there. Way too many breaking balls that hang up in the zone.

He still is likely to get to 10 wins, 200K, .300 BA, 50 HR and 120 RBI. Those are just crazy numbers and IF they pitch to him, he could make a run at 60.

ThoseBackPages · 07-22-2023, 09:45 AM

why worry?

Rage · 07-22-2023, 10:28 AM

He's become a beast at the plate, 3 more walks push the triple slash to

.305/.400/.676

Coming from him, I think he's just trying to tough it out. He looks like a different pitcher the last month and half with this issue, and not in a good way.
