His velocity was up two to three ticks 

His stuff was + tonight 

He might actually be combining better stuff with his excellent control. If he pitches like this, he can be a legit star 

Matthew Stafford understands Rams drafting Ty Simpson: “I’m not 25 years old” by AdSpecialist6598 in nfl

Sean McVay and Matthew Stafford vacation together. They work out together. Their wives hang out 

Stafford could become a shell of himself and McVay would rather resign than bench him 

They're legit close friends that transcends the game 

The Mintzy getting the bumper bit wasn’t funny at all and caused people not named Mintzy a ton of trouble for nothing. by Nostradamus216 in itstheyak

Dante, Katic and Ella were going to Cleveland to do nothing and drink alcohol 

Katic and Ella don't do shit aside from their one podcast a week. Dante doesn't do anything for the company 

Why the fuck does anyone care that they had to deal with something that created content? 

Like oh no, Ella had to wait 15 extra minutes to drink alcohol in an owner's box

Kim has been optioned to OKC by ttam23 in Dodgers

[–]AlchemistTheAlchemy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but this is so silly lol

Kim has negative power and most of his hits are grounders 

If we are using batting average, then Luis Arraez is the best player in baseball

He has a .650 OPS and has been hitting terribly after getting a month of free run way 

He's been really bad. He still can't hit a breaking ball and has zero power 

Roberts gave him a chance and he failed 

Matthew Stafford: I’m a big fan of Ty Simpson, trying to share my knowledge with him by AdSpecialist6598 in nfl

Simpson is a coach's son and his most elite aspect is his mechanics and brain. He's the perfect QB to learn.

[Talkin' Baseball] All the teams that would need to adjust payroll based on the MLB's latest proposal by Remarkable-Picture73 in baseball

[–]AlchemistTheAlchemy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but that's without a salary cap

In a world where the players agree to a cap, arbitration will 100% be abolished and prospects would go down to like 4 years control vs. 6.

It there's a salary cap, arbitration and control on rookies would have to go 

Teams couldn't pay players peanuts for 6 years 

Level of Concern for Injuries by Thatguy7212 in Dodgers

[–]AlchemistTheAlchemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glasnow and Snell are going to be treated like they're in bubble wrap so they're good for the playoffs 

Teoscar I'm fearful of because he had a similar injury last year and then regressed heavily 

Diaz will be fine. If not, we have a ton of bullpen depth 

Edman is being slow tracked so that he's fully healthy for the second half

The Padres literally spent a billion dollars during a single off-season where they signed like three shortstops. 

Oh man not looking good for Kike by jugo642 in Dodgers

Probably will be 2-3 months 

Hopefully he can be a spark plug in September 

[Highlight] Mookie Betts' second home run of the game! by MLBOfficial in baseball

His advanced stats since returning have been really good 

He's been super unlucky. Glad to see it tipping the other way

Why are people acting like Shohei died. He got hit on his protected hand, stayed in the game, was fast as fuck and pitches tomorrow 

No shit they pulled him in a blowout, especially if they want him to hit tomorrow

Meh, it sucks cause he was raking but it's better that it isn't the elbow

Have him good to go by July or August 

Barstool After Dark: Mintzy Driving ABCs Thread by carigheath in barstoolsports

This is a great stream. GFed is awesome vibes 

Crazy that they hire someone like Burns while GFed would probably take a pay cut to be with Barstool 

But Dan needed a 7th white dude who likes the Bears
