Hunter Greene was simply not made to pitch in Coors.

It's rough being a pitcher in the majors. Going through current FHOF's in Kershaw, Scherzer, Verlander, Greinke and potentially DeGrom, I'm attempting to identify who will fill their shoes in a few years. Consistency is an issue with the guys entering their prime

Nice debut for Brandon Williamson. He's been pretty bad this year (and really last year too), but it's good to see him have a moment.

Thought I should include a card for good measure:

Nice orange sapphire! Definitely nice to see him have that kind of start to his career.

It's being reported today that what was thought was a calf issue for Nick Lodolo, was actually a stress reaction in his tibia. He was reportedly playing through it for several starts. This explains how he went from one of the top pitchers in baseball, to one of the worst, seemingly overnight. Hopefully he comes back fully healed and we see the Nick we saw at the beginning of the year.

Mail day, snagged one card before his 2023 debut.

5 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 6 K, W (1-0). Should get another shot @Cincy next week.

The greatest hitting pitcher of all time. Only 714 home runs behind the legendary Babe Ruth. The Great Clembino.

Detmers on the mound today. This will be his 8th start. Still looking for his 1st win of the season.

I predicted a no hitter tonight. Let's go Boyd!

Boyd. Kopech. Detmers. Alcantara??? Nope, Sandy gives up a dribbler.

Kopech + Gravemen combined 1 hitter.

Detmers will not get the win. Good job bullpen on holding the lead.

12 Ks is pretty impressive.

Yup, and here are the receipts to prove it! Another good outing last night.

You cornered the Elder market! Be careful, though. If you don't take good care of them, it'll be Elder abuse....

The truth is that Bryce is a good childhood friend of my son's, so we've been collecting him hard since 2020. We never could've predicted this! We have over 3K Bryce cards including 23 one-of-one's. It's been a ton of fun, but now I'm starting to get priced out!

Too funny. I was going to ask if you were Bryce’s brother—because who else would stack up like that but a family member? Well… Close enough!

I watched him pitch the other day against the Blue Jays. His sinker/2-seamer is absolutely nasty.

That’s a great hoard! Have you seen the Superfractor or the red autos? Would be great to get the full rainbow.
