Stephen Strasburg has never thrown 100 pitches in a Major League game.
Washington protects their pitchers.
Peacock prospectors should take that into consideration.
Jordan Zimmerman has only thrown over 100 pitches seven times.
Never reached 110.
Strasburg had a 24/2 k-bb ratio when he came back last year.
He'll be held to a 160 innings limit.
Cliff Lee says 'big deal' to Strasburg.
Lee had a 40/2 k-bb ratio in September.
Roy Halladay walked four hitters in one game, three in another, and never more than two in the rest of his games.
Jordan Zimmerman says 'big deal'
Zimmerman walked three in his opening start. Never more than two the rest of the season.
Halladay says 'big deal' back.
Halladay struck out 220 hitters.
Zimmerman struck out 124 hitters.
Mariano Rivera gave up 13 earned runs this year.
Vin Mazzaro says 'big deal'.
Mazzaro gave up 14 earned runs in two and one thirds innings.
Derek Lowe had an 8.75 ERA in September and lost all of his starts.
He was 9-17 on a winning team.
Atlanta has a lot of talented young arms.
Good bye, Derek.
I know, Lowe blow
Or is it, Lowe Blows?
Ian Kinsler stole 30 bases and was caught only four times. An 88% steal rate.
Carlos Beltran says 'big deal'.
Beltran holds the career record for thieves with at least 200 attempts.
Beltran has an 88% steal rate over his career.
Pete Rose was the worst thief. in the National League.
Bad thief, bad gambler...Pete, don't try to rob a bank
Pete's steal rate was 57%
Lou Gehrig says 'big deal'
Gehrig's steal rate was just over 50%
Beltran was traded at the trade deadline
He still led the Mets in rbi
The Mets were horrible
Glenn picked them
A commercial says the rarest play in baseball is the unassisted triple play
Don't believe it
There have been three unassisted triple plays during the last 20 years
They're not exciting either, usually a middle infielder catches a line drive with runners moving
The triple steal says 'big deal'
There have only been two during the last 30 years.
And, they're more exciting
I hope Adam Dunn isn't too bright
Adam Dunn hit .159
He may or may not be the first hitter to hit below his IQ
I don't think he is. If his IQ was that high, he wouldn't have hit .159
Dunn had 496 plate appearances
Go get your hot dog while he's up
He struck out 177 times, walked 75 times, and was hbp four times
52% at bats without a fair ball
Before last year, in seven straight seasons in the N.L., Dunn had hit at least 38 home runs
Last year, Dunn had 42 rbi
If Adam Dunn indeed has a high IQ, he'll request a trade to the N.L.
Adam Dunn just called
&$##%&%$&!!!!!!
Gotta go
