Jay Kirk Baseball Thread since 2017: The 2021 season, Dodgers Repeat?


Recommended Posts

Tomorrow the Mets will face the pitcher with the best ERA in the majors, Luis Castillo. He has a 1.23 ERA. I know it is early but that is impressive. We have our work cut out for us.

 

Time to go rest. Have a good night fellas. :D

Still down 3-2 now. Early though. Bote is usually a decent fielder and clutch with the bat. I like him.

I felt he blew an easy play , the ball wasn't hit hard , where is MVP ?

Yes if you had told me we would be 19-10 at end of April before season started would've jumped all over it. We face two tough pitchers the next 2 games in Strausberg and Scherzer

19-10 is a great April, I would take it :thmup:. I knew the Cards would be good this season.

Cubs still up 4-3 Top of the 6th.

Yeah I am following the game on MLB.com so not watching but following it here at work. Mariners are a team many do not know much about unless you live out west. They are good though.

Yes knew they were , and we don't get a lot of chances to see many of these teams.

There are reports that the Reds won't substantiate that #6 overall prospect Nick Senzel will be called up Friday. If so, a roster spot will need to be opened as he is not on the 40 man. Probably Gennett gets transferred to 60 day IL.

 

If I told you that the the Reds at the end on April would lead the league in ERA,earned runs allowed, OPS against, home runs allowed total bases given up, and 5th in WHIP would you assume they would have a much better record?  All that offense they got and the pitching was the question. Their pitching in great, the offense is putrid. Who would have thunk it? I can't wait for Senzel.

Reds aren't too bad this season. If their offense lives up to their billing they will be a .500 team at worse.

Hello HippieJohn,

 

The Mets who are playing the Reds this week have the opposite problem. They have been known for their pitching, not their hitting. Yet, all of a sudden they are hitting well. However, they have one of the highest ERAs in the league, if not the highest. They have giving up more runs than any team in the NL. A lot of it is the bullpen but the starters have not been great themselves. 

 

Let's hope both our teams improve. Reds are on the up. A lot to look forward to.

Yes the opposite of what I had thought.

    • I just cant understand taking D line over a CB this year.  WR or Bowers would make sense to me   If the team doesnt value corners this way then maybe they should start.  I dont like to pigeon hole what we draft this hard but our secondary is a bunch of nobodies and our Dline is ok, better than ok actually.  We dont even have many snaps for a rookie unless they are a really good edge right out of the gate. A rookie DT from this class isnt beating Buckner or Stewart.
    • We see many coverage failures by all teams caused by miscommunication.  Certainly there are exceptional individuals that play CB but experience and intelligence are vital.  Flowers had size and 4.3's speed, and Jones was decent. Juju has potential but because of his size and speed he will always be successfully targeted.   We are desperate for a 4.3's stud that can cover anytime, anywhere. That was Rodgers BTW. 
    • Isaiah Land he says.     Every year it happens. The Dallas Cowboys make some tough roster cuts and we all wait nervously to see if our favorite prospects make it cleanly through waivers. Most do, but every once in a while, a team will scoop up that one guy we were hoping made it to the practice squad. This year, that player is edge rusher Isaiah Land. An undrafted free agent from Florida A&M, Land dealt with injuries his final year in college, but had a remarkable season in 2021 when he finished with 19 sacks, 25.5 tackles for a loss, and three fumble recoveries. While there is a lot to be uncovered with him, he still flashed enough to draw interest from the Cowboys. Throughout the summer, the young edge rusher had impressed and it looked like the team had found another diamond in the rough. Land was fantastic during the preseason. In three games, he finished with 10 total pressures, which was the second-most of any player on any NFL team this preseason. He also finished with seven hurries on 45 pass-rushing snaps. He only recorded one official sack but finished with a pass rush win rate of 20%. Not only that, he had opposing tackles so worried about his get-off that they were regularly jumping early. There were several instances when tackles would get called for a false start.    Might as well be optimistic about  Woods and Land contributing to our resurrection. 
    • Nice catch Stitch.  Year two of Steichen, our very functional TE group and Downs gives me very high expectations that we will be highly effective attacking the middle of the field. If we do add another WR to help complement the other side of the field, Pittman's ability to be even more outstanding only goes up. And I feel confident another guy will be added. Our offense should be very strong for 2024.
    • I'm hopeful Colts resign Blackmon and do this in the draft
