How's that not a strike?

I don't mind if its on a good or even decent pitch, but those were just dead red, right down the middle

Not the first time we've seen Darvish struggle by pumping fastballs down the middle in the 1st inning. I was hoping he would have figured out that doesn't work by now, but I guess not.

Where's the strike blue?

 

[jaar01]

Yu is a good pitcher. But for all his hype, he's so overrated. He is not an ace. Couple years from now, maybe. But not right now.

 

[dammittman]

wow, that looked like a 3 stooges play.

 

[Nathan Ahle/Triple 7]

Don't worry guys. Yu will settle down in an inning or two.

 

[Jbear]

No way to prove it but Soto not catching Yu is a factor IMO

 

[Hambombs]

It's better to be cute with the 2seamer rather than throw a fastball with no movement

Are you kidding? He is an ace bro. Don't let one inning fool you

 

[RevSader]

Shit like that drives me crazy. He finally gets some early runs and squanders it in 3 pitches.

Yu is a good pitcher. But for all his hype, he's so overrated. He is not an ace. Couple years from now, maybe. But not right now.

He definitely struggles with the nuances of pitching to certain hitters and knowing hitters tendencies and then sometimes he just has a huge ego, like tonight

You are dead wrong

I think its a factor as well

Yeah those two have great chemistry. Soto caught most of Yu's games down the stretch last year and most of them this year. He should be catching now

 

[RevSader]

And now the endless foul off begins...Aybar is a piece of shit scrub. You are an elite world class talent. Put him away.

 

[jta4437]

You are dead wrong

For once I think jaar has merit

Yu is overrated

He's not an ace right now with as many brain farts as he has

Definitely soon though

What kind of ego do you find in a pitcher after one inning?

[Sexy]

Overrated is subjective, but to me he's definitely an ace.
He's not the best pitcher in the AL by any means but our number one starter is definitely up there.

I think he still has a shot at CY. I think he's wrong about a couple years
