He's probably more pissed off about being related to you. Now go back to Cloak Room or wherever it is that you regularly infect with your stupidity and leave this awesome subforum be.

David Price just got his ass absolutely handed to him by the Yankees, 7 runs in less than 3 innings. His Yankee Stadium ERA as a Red Sock is 9.71 (9 games). If NY hangs on it’ll put Boston 14.5 games out of 1st. That’s just too bad.

His 3rd inning started with 2 outs then went bb hr 2b 2b 1b 2b 1b bb pulled, some of which were to guys wearing numbers like 74 and 66.

Fuck the Red Sox

Fuck the Yankees

Fuck the rest of the league

Go Stros

Come at me bro

All I can say is IF it's Dodgers v Astros, I'm glad your 1-2-3 are all RHPs.  Dodgers best lineup is predominantly lefties.  

Dodgers could go 8-40 from here on out and still end up with a winning record.

I like the way you insinuate Verlander, Cole and Greinke are just run of the mill righties.

I mean, I’m not an Astros fan, but in theory you could say the same thing about 2 of your 3 starters being LHPs in this scenario. Especially when you consider one of them hasn’t gotten over the mental hurdle of the postseason.

Not really sure where you got that inference.  Just saying we are better off facing righties than lefties.  Tough righties indeed (although we've had decent success against Greinke).

The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced Greinke won’t be as dominant in the AL. The only AL team he’s faced this year roughed him up, and he doesn’t have a free out in the lineup anymore since there’s a DH. 
More nonsense. Keep doin you!

But we all know the Astros are the best at...pushing the limit for what’s allowed in regards to pitchers. There’s a little bit of truth in what shit head bauer was saying.

 

And before I get the wrath of all astros fans, I’m not saying that in a “this team should be investigated” way. I’m saying it like that’s exactly what you should be doing. I wish my team would do it. I respect it. It’s like the warriors and their moving screens, or the Seahawks and how the legion of boom could’ve gotten called for defensive holding on every single pass play. You should be trying to find every competitive advantage possible. In any sport. You should be saying to yourself “how far can I push this” because the goal is to win and get the most out of your talent. Just wanted to throw that disclaimer I there. I’m also not saying that’s the only reason you get the most out of your pitchers, for what its worth. You guys are clearly the class organization when it comes to scouting pitching.

So he has pitched against the Rangers, Blue Jays, and Yankees twice. In those starts he has pitched 25.1 innings, gave up 6 total earned runs (7 total runs), struck out 29, and walked 7. 

I'm convinced if Greinke was traded to the Yankees you would be gobbling his knob as we speak.

Should’ve clarified AL team in an AL park.

5 innings, 2 hits, 2 runs, 3 walks, 7 k's and yes vs the Yankees which is the only reason you even saw it.

And he started his career by pitching 6 full seasons in the AL. His consistency in all scenario's is a little bit absurd.

The Dodgers are pretty damned amazing. If I had to pick a favorite even after the trade deadline moves it would be them.

Bauer accused them of using foreign substances to get a better grip on the baseball (helping increase spin rate). So something that everyone does to a certain extent, but they’ve been accused of mastering the art.

Which is even more eye rolling when you read the parts in MVP Machine where he talks about significantly increasing his own spin rate by adjusting his grip.
