Yu So impressive

[Hambombs]

@jaysonst: Yu Darvish has had 4 games of 14+ K’s this year. That’s more than Verlander, Smoltz, Halladay, Santana, Maddux or Spahn had in whole careers

Yu has more 14 K/0 BB games this season than every pitcher in major league history had, combined, from the invention of baseball thru 1959.

I really thought he would set a new career-high yesterday, oh well :p
Very impressive indeed.

That's incredible, seriously.

 

[Hambombs]

Also Yu has 8, 10+ K games this year out of 21 games. Last year he had 8 in 29 starts. Just so Nasty! Almost half of his games are 10ks or more.

That's incredible, seriously.

Randy Johnson and Pedro Martinez had only 2 there whole career....

If Yu can ever get his walk rate to a Cliff Lee neighborhood the guy will win multiple Cy Youngs.

 

[fordman84]

the only downside is that K's cost so many pitches. But when your stuff is unhittable, that is what you get.

Completely agree!! His walks and the resulting pitch count is his only bugaboo. Fix that and we may have a potential Hall of Famer on our hands....ok, ok jumping the gun on that.
