RIPPA Posted June 2 Author Posted June 2 Apparently - they wanted to retire Ichiro and Randy's number at the same time (since they were both 51) but Randy said he wanted Ichiro to have his own day, that is why Johnson's isn't happening till next season

Tabe Posted June 10 Posted June 10 I'm not sure but I think this is pretty good: Over his last 11 starts, Detroit's Tarik Skubal has 95K and 3BB, a 31.67 K/BB ratio. He's the only pitcher in the last 125 seasons to do that. He's averaging 11.3 K/9 and 15.00 K/BB for the season. He's had 13 starts this year and has had 0 walks in 8 of them.

Amazing control for a guy with a power arm. Hope he continues to perform well. 1
RIPPA Posted June 11 Author Posted June 11 The Padres beat the Dodgers so bad yesterday that the Dodgers - because MLB won't allow them (try as they might) to carry 49 pitchers - used Kike Hernandez for the final 2 1/3 innings Even funnier - he only allowed 3 hits and 1 run It was the earliest a position player has ever taken the mound in Dodgers history LA did technically abide by MLB's new rules to limit position players pitching as you have to wait till you are down at least 8 runs but you have to believe MLB isn't thrilled about their golden child blatantly tanking games now
