Hate watching Mikolas continue to pitch

Is Lorenzen worse than Mikolas??

Squab · « **Reply #3 on:** July 21, 2026, 07:42:41 pm »

Mikolas at Coors Field

to be fair though, Lorenzen is basically Mikolas but instead of having a just slightly below average fastball, he has the worst fastball in the majors.

He did no-hit us in 2023 for the Phillies.

Has Luis lost his mojo?

Actually not, he gave it to CJ.

Bingo! CJ, 2-0. Good way to start, again.

I was at that game in Philly

(But it is cool to be able to say I’ve attended no-hitters at multiple parks).

Just pay him. Please.

CJ going to flirt with a 40 homer year

Surprising to me since he's sort of a wiry guy, but he seems to get perfect launch angles.

Palmquist opens. That usually helps Mikolas

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #14 on:** July 21, 2026, 08:57:00 pm »

Dreckman is one of the least accurate umps.

Yeah, I agree. The stats are night and day.

What an incredibly strange highlight for our broadcast to show? Lol

GataNats · « **Reply #17 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:16:23 pm »

Palmquist is dreadful

Time to bring in Mikolas. Oof.

Wood awful out there

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #20 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:21:52 pm »

This is falling apart fast…

tomwvr · « **Reply #21 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:22:44 pm »

Complete and utter failure of the coaching staff trying to push an opener too long.

SkinsNatFan21RIP · « **Reply #22 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:22:46 pm »

I can’t stand this dumb ass stuff. Just put a starter out there and stop this silliness.

tomterp · « **Reply #23 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:23:01 pm »

Wheels coming off the cart. Mikolas with runner on?

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #24 on:** July 21, 2026, 09:23:20 pm »

Well, the opener didn't work tonight.

Leadoff guy should have been rung up on ball 3. Dreckman is bad
