WTF is Harper doing! and when is going to learn that!


Bryper STILL won't throw to the cutoff man,
insisting that he will make an impossible throw
to get a runner at home plate. Stupid, stupid, STUPID!

For those of you who still hoped the cadaver would wake up to pull on the rope and ring the bell, go ahead and start mourning

this feels like a 5 4 inning outing

There is no reason to use Harper, Scherzer, Strasburg, Zimmerman, Soto, or Doolittle for the rest of the season

Definitely wrong on that, NatNasty.

Yep.  It's shocking he didn't come through.

Harper continues to pull off the plate.  Needs to take a lesson from Soto on how to step into the ball.

Difo has a bad play for every good one he makes. Bench player.

He'd play a key role on any .500 team

In Scherzer’s defense, it seems like he throws 110-120 pitches every start. Can’t expect him to be sharp in September. He’s not a the pitching robot people think he is. He’s no spring chicken either. Getting old...

What's the low down on the fight tomorrow?     I ain't followed boxing in a long time.



I'm hoping it's a good one. Last September Golovkin, in my opinion, won the fight but boxing corruption or incompetent judges, or both, got in the way and they ruled it a draw. They probably wanted the rematch because it's a big money fight. They scheduled the rematch for May but Alvarez got caught using Zimmerman's "cortisone" and the fight got cancelled while he served a suspension. Alvarez is the better technical boxer. Golovkin has more power but both pack dynamite in their punches and have good chins. If they resolve to engage it could be an entertaining fight.
