I’ve wondered for a while if MLB would see a wholesale shift from a 5 man rotation to a couple of starters and johnny wholestaff “rotations.” It’s less taxing for pitchers to throw smaller amounts of pitches more frequently, we have seen it be effective even with 3-4 very average pitchers and it’s a lot tougher for hitters to adjust.

France just keeps taking Verlander oppo….Verlander not very focused with a first pitch fastball down the pipe
France not over-swinging
just awful umpiring

Espinal definitely living right another pop fly bloops in. Ala Wee Willie Keller.
Just jumping on thread now, but if any of you on the mlb extra innings feed want to organize a boycott of the Beatleguise 2 movie I am ready to lead the charge.
Holy Moses, each and every commercial break and sometimes twice. Enough already!!!!
You take whatever you can get. Espinal has been living right.

I don't have that feed, but I have similar disdain for the MVG commercial that has been running for 3 consecutive years.
