Chubbles 604 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I was really hoping he could turn it around Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mcbane 1,763 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Spot starting this guy, first inning morales hits a taylor made DP to Donaldson and he hesitates and can't decide whether or not to grab it so it goes through for a single. Now the next two guys have hit singles ad its 2-0 with men on 2nd and 3rd and one out recorded. Not sure why I even bothered using this guy, he isn't very good despite the bizarre hype train on him. Javier Vazquez White Sox special. He allows too much contact, these innings/games will happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wombat 1,532 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Seagers ball was a dink off the glove of Lowrie and of course they rule it a hit instead of an error. Would have made all the runs unearned. I swear official scorers are just out to get me this year. EVERYTHING is a freaking hit. Edited May 11, 2013 by Wombat 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There have been so many score corrections this year so hopefully you get that one back in a day or two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wombat 1,532 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Just take him out so I never have to see this guy pitch again. Good lord does he serve up meatballs. ^I doubt they will change that one though. It was one of those "could go either way" calls. But it just feels like they always screw you on them lol. Scorers these days only give out errors if you throw the ball into the stands or something. The most recent for me was Latos last start on the pop up by Soriano ruled a single cost him 3 earned. Thought for sure they would change that and they never did... Anyway I digress. This guy isn't good and is a threat to give up multiple home runs in every start he has. He serves up 90 mph heat middle up in the zone over and over again, this is the first time I actually watched him this year. I will not be using him again in a mixed league.

mcbane 1,763 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 But...but...the Cy Young! Look, I'm sure it can be proven the wind was blowing out tonight and Fangraphs was keeping score, so the boxscore is wrong and Straily actually pitched 8 innings with 12 k's. I'm and A's fan and would love for Straily to win a Cy Young but I just don't see it. At this point I have to assume that he's just so far above the level of AAA mentally, and he's past the point of working on any of his pitches, that he just dominates, because it doesn't add up. He's an average pitcher. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FouLLine 2,849 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Keep in mind that The Hanley trade case is different. Hanely was on the block and LA was interested in and asking about Straily (among others). That is different than Oakland putting Straily on the block. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he was off limits he wouldn't have been part of the discussion. The A's pursued Hanley, so I'm sure there were various packages discussed with multiple prospects, but Straily was very much available. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJSatane 728 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Please, I hope this guy just gets sent down and stays in AAA forever changes name and we just forget about him, he is nothing to write this much about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jam Master Jay 15 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Please, I hope this guy just gets sent down and stays in AAA forever changes name and we just forget about him, he is nothing to write this much about. Judging by the some of the posts I've seen he's the next Verlander and Strasburg rolled into one, a future Hall of Famer & Cy Young winner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cmilne23 10,544 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) I went to the game Friday night at Safeco and was talking to Straily while he was warming up. I asked if he was Foulline from the rotoworld boards. He looked at me with kind of a befuddled look and never replied. Only thing that really makes sense at this point.

Wombat 1,532 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 After watching him pitch in his last start I have to say I am very excited for his start today.... ...As someone who has multiple Rangers on my team. He's someone I will be targeting waiver hitters against if I am looking for a cheap homer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
