    Those numbers are nothing special given that he's a short reliever.

    Awful pitcher. His specialty is hitting women.

    I'm not arguing with you or picking a fight but numbers are numbers. Why is it short relievers have to have better numbers than starters? It's all the same. Starting pitchers have a routine because they know when they will pitch next. Relievers never know when they will called on. Plus I was questioning the remark that he knows how to throw but not how to pitch. Relief pitchers are like goalies in hockey. They can crack at any time.

    Wow angels won this game, I remember having a look at the odds and Yankees 1.04, angels @13, maybe angels were more as I can't remember what stage the game was when briefly looking at the odds

    Boone had not used him in a week, and think his last appearance was a blown save. Either he’s hurt, or Boone is getting fired soon

    Here’s a future trivia question: Who is the only person to hit a grand slam off Chapman?
    Jared Walsh
