Nashy is strong on a game tonight

jjgold · 08-23-13, 05:20 PM

Although why put the effort in when you have this

JMon · 08-23-13, 05:24 PM

yep

Pitchers don't get tired. I can stand still for 2 hrs and throw 200 pitches and don't even break a sweat. Football players get tired, basketball players get tired, hockey players get tired..but pitchers don't get tired. Pitching is not an aerobic activity.

Arms become dead in late August and September. Kuroda has been throwing way too much the past month.
Disagree, but all good.

Kuroda pitched 3 games in October last year and he went 7 to 8 innings in each game. The guy is a horse. I wouldn't worry about a dead arm from him.

OK, how was his last start?

Worry about Wainwright tonight (just kidding, you know I love ya)

Those Yankee lineups Archer faced before are totally different than the one he is seeing tonight.

Come on man.

1-0 game the only real difference was no Grandy

Um, ARod over Lillibredge..

ARod and Granderson over 2 complete scrubs is a pretty big difference. Lineup changers.

Then fade my ass, OK.
Bottom line is Archer beat them twice.

Yeah, it's not like Archer got torched in the first either. Let's see how the last eight innings plays out

You mad bro · 08-23-13, 06:53 PM

3-1 rays

3 run shot off the foul pole lol .. insane

He grooved that pitch to Lobaton.
It was on a tee, and the catcher squared it up. Effortless.

stevenash · 08-23-13, 07:13 PM

Longoria with the stick

stevenash · 08-23-13, 07:16 PM

Back to back, and belly to belly.

Holy crap, I thinks the ball Joyce just hit is orbiting Jupiter right now.

CMNoney · 08-23-13, 07:17 PM

Kuroda getting lit up

He got lit up in the Boston game, the dude is getting old, I respect what he does and has done, but if you saw the Red Sox game, you knew he was breaking down.

Even the DP ball was smoked, KJ loves to hit him, he set up the first homer with the laced single through the middle.

great call nashy and dead on

Zobrist also, 4/7 1HR, 2 doubles, a tripl, and a big fly tater to boot, You think Zobrist is drooling to get in the box tonight. 4 for 7 all extra base hits.

Longoria is a weapon, Joyce is sneaky, and Loney (even though has weak power numbers) has been raking all season.

Just saying.

Thanks JJ. Needed this one. (well, not really, but I did pick two stinkers earlier this week)
Maybe Nashy got his groove back again.
Let's see.

Nice call my man. I was on the wrong side of this one.

lakerboy · 08-23-13, 09:58 PM

Of course pavy does not show up

ChalkyDog · 08-23-13, 10:10 PM

Needed this one. Nice hit, Nash!

Nice call......Yankees fan here too and I knew Archer would give us trouble, just didn't think Kuroda would get lit up like that

Didn't look up the stats at all and I know he's been way off, but I think CC usually pitches well against the Rays and the Yanks usually hit Price well

Gotta figure +155 tomorrow ain't a bad shot at all

Hey..I wasn't disagreeing with Nash's pick. I just wanted to point out that Kuroda wasn't tired or had a dead arm. Lighten up for Christ's sake. You are acting like an old grumpy man all the time.

He pitched that game with a tried/dead arm. Everything he threw had no bite, was not crisp, was pretty much in every Ray's wheelhouse.
