So... A curveball that finishes in the strike zone apparently isn't a strike in this game...

The umps aren't up to the quality of the pitching.

This is complete bullcrap so far. What the hell is with this ump squeezing him? Proving a point? What a SOB.

Ok, now we're getting some of those calls. Atleast Nyjer is. If it goes both ways, I'm fine.

That was Nyjer's best sequence all year. Five pitch walk and then drew FIVE throws over. Gave Strasburg extra breathing time and kind of got into Arroyo's head. Why can't he play smart all the time?

That's more what good speed can do than the actual value stealing bases, IMO.

I'm laughing at Strasburg's Preston Wilson-style buttoned jersey.

Edit: Damn, he fixed it.

They're talking about why it unbuttons on ESPN right now.  I have no idea if they know what they're talking about or not haha
