MLB Playoffs IGT

[CSF77]

Anyways. If the Cubs didn't shit the bed as a team he might have been 11-8.

I really don't put too much weight into wins and losses because those are team stats.

But to show you. 2nd half.

Q 7-2 5.40 ERA
Yu 4-4 2.76.

Just shows you that W-L don't mean shit. But it seems no one respects pitchers with out it.

Again you're focusing on a small sample size. You acknowledge he sucked in the first half but are only focusing on the 2H.

What about 2018? How did he perform?

Look if Yu goes out in 2020 and replicates a 2.7 ERA for the whole year, we can revisit this. Until that happens, this is all bullshit.

Meanwhile....in postseason games.....

Adam Wainwright continues to get the special treatment. Just because a pitch curved a lot doesn't make it a strike when it is never in the zone!

Go Nats. Scherzer needs to be Scherzer. Three K's in the first.

 

[zack54attack]

Scherzer is DEALING.

 

[TL1961]

Nine K's thru 5. No hits.

C'mon, Nats, let's score a bunch. I can't live wth Cards getting no hits for two days and being tied 1-1. This has got to be a Nats win.

 

[TL1961]

Must be Waino's birthday. He has been getting gifts all afternoon.

Holy shit, they just gave him another one!

Cards look like a .500 team that got really hot but now the magic's run out. Good luck winning 4/5 against the Nats SP.

You could look at their 46 games coming out of the Break. They went 31-15 in that stretch. That's 4 games over for the rest of the season combined. But you can probably find streaks like that for most teams. Baseball is generally what you do in the 62 other games because most teams will win and lose 50 each.

 

[zack54attack]

NYY dominating.

 

[JimJohnson]

NYY dominating.

I was thinking before the series that the Yanks might win. They seem to be putting it all together at the right time. Houston bats are cold, despite winning the TB series.

 

[greg23]

Omg

One half a season of darvish and he's a better TOR guy than buehler and Strasburg

Really?

Wtf do you people watch?

Nobody in their right might would take Darvish over either of those guys.....ever.

His 2nd half was nice....I have no inclination to believe his 2020 season will come close to replicating that and wound guess his 1st half is more likely to occur than his 2nd half.

A nice #2 or #3 with hendricks but not a dominating #1 like cole, scherzer, Strasburg, etc

 

[TL1961]

I agree it’s wrong to overstate Yu Darvish based on 1/2 season but I noticed no one has taken exception to ranking Jack Flaherty as the single best pitcher in the league, also based on 1/2 season.

 

[TL1961]

Let’s go, Nats.

Let’s see the clock strike 12 on Cinderella Flaherty.

 

[DrGonzo]

Suck it, Cardinals.

 

[Omeletpants]

Cardinals offense playing like the Cubs

 

[SilenceS]

I kept saying no wanted to see the Nats in the playoffs.

 

[SilentLurker]

Cardinals offense playing like the Cubs

1 run vs Nats pitching in 3 games.

 

[TL1961]

I kept saying no wanted to see the Nats in the playoffs.

Agreed.

Best part is that last Wednesday, Cards fans were going wild when Nats came back to beat LA ?

 

[TL1961]

1 run vs Nats pitching in 3 games.

And that was due to misplay by CF.

 

[TL1961]

Cardinals offense playing like the Cubs

No.
