Re: Reds vs Pirates Wednesday 6/6

Chapman is flat out unhittable. I haven't seen him even throw the breaking ball in 4 outings. He's just blowing hitters away with the fastball.

He has his moments where he walks guys but not very often.

Yes -- it reminds me of my first year in Little League -- we had two guys - both 4 years older than me that both ended up pitching college ball -- lucky for me one of them was on my team -- but I had zero chance against either of them.

Re: Reds vs Pirates Wednesday 6/6

I dunno for sure, but we may be looking at history in the making.

Lowest BAA, WHIP ever?

I never thought we'd see a repeatable delivery from him.

Kudos to whoever helped him work the kinks out.

Re: Reds vs Pirates Wednesday 6/6

The most amazing thing is the body language on the hitters, its like I must look when I go to the dentist.

Lets enjoy this as long as it lasts.

Re: Reds vs Pirates Wednesday 6/6

I finally figured it out. Chapman is like Secretariat in the Belmont.

Secretariat was so far ahead that when the second-place horse finished he thought he won. Secretariat was already back in the barn. LOL. Okay, a little hyperbole never hurt anyone.
