MLB Daily Thread: 8/9/2017: Sale fans 13, Rangers sell reliever to Mariners for $1

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Probably. All I know is, he's fat

Kinda reminds me of that creepy judge in Nothing But Trouble, but fatter.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Fo sho. He's like a Met, but with talent!

Well, he spells his names funny

 

[soxfan1468927]

I tend to agree with you here. I don't mind when pitchers win an MVP, but I do think they need to be quite a bit better looking than a position player in order to do so.

Well then this guy doesn't have much of a shot.

TE="SlinkyRedfoot, post: 10364540, member: 9592"]He better put his work boots on. Kluber's coming.

Since June:

CS - 12 GS ~ 83.1 IP ~ 119 K ~ 2.38 ERA
KC - 13 GS ~ 95.1 IP ~ 142 K ~ 1.70 ERA

kluber has been great, no doubt.

what a postseason matchup that would be.


sale gets less than half a run of support more than kluber, so thats a wash IMO

hits/9:

sale - 6.3
kluber - 6.3

k's/9:

sale - 12.8
kluber - 12.4

BB/9:

sale - 1.6
kluber - 1.9

last 28 days:

Sale - opp BA .167 1.87 ERA .802 WHIP
kluber - opp BA .180 2.29 ERA .737 WHIP


theyve both been spectacular, especially the last month.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Kluber has been absolutely filthy since coming back. One bad start (@Chicago somehow) and that's it.

But, the 30 IP difference is going to be hard to overcome.

I agree.

 

[PolarVortex]

I'd watch it at Rock's house

Rock's House of Bawstuns and Massengills?

But you would have been cool if it had been a WHITE bear, amirite?

There used to be polar bears in Hudson bay. Don't know if they are still there, but they were whimps compared to the Alaska polar bears anyway.

Severino?

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Not saying hes' in the race, but could I get Severinos' numbers in that same span

LS - 12 GS ~ 78.0 IP ~ 93 K ~ 2.88 ERA

 

[PolarVortex]

Oh, and, fuck Joe West. He's the polar opposite of what an umpire is supposed to be. We already discussed this at length at Zig's House of Nationalists and Thug Thumpers

They have. And I agree with soxfan, the IP difference is just going to be too much. Kluber would have to continue this pace and Sale would have to shit the bed. I could see the former, but not the latter.

Bawstun better keep an eye on Kluber. He's already stolen a CY from King Felix. He could it from Chris Sale too.

I always say that he looks like one of those skinny meth-head hillbillies that listens to rap. He sure can pitch, though.

Funny you should say that. Here's the original picture:

That was a tight race. I'd probably have given it to Felix, but what are you going to do? I said as much in the Mariners forum and said that I understood why Mariners fans might be butthurt. Dios Mio. You'd have thought I walked into those guys' homes, fucked their wives, smacked their children and then shit on their kitchen tables. Sensitive bunch over there.

He is lined up to pitch in every Yankees series remaining.

Sale was so perfect for the White Sox. They're like the Jerry Springer guests of baseball.

 

[Rock Strongo]

Severino?

even better...

0.83 ERA
opp BA .176
.918 WHIP
