Good luck hitting Yu Darvish

You could make that same visual for a dozen or so big league pitchers, he's a great pitcher all the same though.

You think there are a dozen or so pitchers that have 5+ pitches that they throw consistently?

...that cover 12 sq ft

 

[Hambombs]

Im calling it. Gonna strikeout 300+ for the first time in a while

Well he did pretty well against the Red Sox... Too bad the sox couldn't get the win

a lot of teams have that issue against the Rangers. Don't feel bad

Yeah their record doesn't indicate how good of a team they really are. Always play the red sox tough... Beltre always steps up too

Here's the thing with the rangers, if you put a quality pitcher out there they will beat him. If you throw a scrub out there, they will make him look like a Cy Young winner.

Seems like the Red Sox of years past...

Very impressive to see mutiple speeds on his off-speed stuff. He tossed a 53 mph curve for a K, then followed it with 95 mph heat.

 

[bone3421]

he is impressive......and if you dont score on him in the 1st/2nd inning then its usually too late

 

[bone3421]

Batters have swung and missed at 40.7 percent of his pitches this season.

That is sick.

What is that pitch that breaks hard right? Disgusting

I believe that's his hard 2 seam fastball.

Darvish with 15 k today.

 

[Tubbs1518]

And there is still a good chance that he doesn't win the Cy Young.

And a good chance that he still can

 

[Chef99]

He was filthy today. I'm not sure Pierzynski is the brightest bulb in the lamp, though.

 

[Tubbs1518]

And a good chance that he still can

I didn't say he wouldn't, but he will have to do big work to beat out the guy for the Tigers. His wins total will mean a lot more than it should.
