Matt Harvey Beat Down Day
Great job connecting a couple of wins off this bad team. There’s a little extra in today’s game with Matt Harvey making his second start for the Reds. As you know, I have a bet with the great San Dawg on how many quality starts this chump will stagger through this season. We settled on 4.5 as the number. That could also be the number of beers he has before first pitch. But I digress.
I will be catching this one on the radio today. Pound this drunken has-been into the ground….
did Belt go crazy about the called 3rd strike? He should have, look where it was (#7).
Baggs writes today about Hunter Pence’s new swing–the Williamson approach. I’m sure we’re gonna get a lot of opportunity to see it in action.
The Giants lost AND Harvey didn’t get a QS. That’s just bad luck right there. At least the Warriors lost.
While I’m bummed about the message from Baer in Schulman’s article about bullpens and fences, I’m encouraged to hear there is a chorus of voices calling for these changes…..especially the idea of putting the bullpen in triples alley, which I never thought I would see discussed in print.
Dodgers lost to the Marlins again.
Dodgers are now in last place in the division, percentage points behind the Padres.
