Dodgers' Ross Stripling says he'd consider throwing at Astros hitters

 

Update: Astros super utility player Aledmys Diaz, who didn't join the Astros until 2019, was just hit on the left hand/wrist and probably has broken bones. If he's not out for a while it will be a minor miracle because the it sounded ugly.

That strike was awful, but there were some bad calls on both sides.

Regardless, the Yankees just got swept by their biggest rivals at home in the first time in a decade. Cheers to that!

Take that #BothSides shit to CR. Yankees got hammer fucked. Granted, you guys are way better this year anyway. But that doesn’t make it right.

Uh, no.

Keep telling yourself that. 

According to the data, L.A. has by a large margin the highest year-to-year increase of any club in spin rate on four-seam fastballs, which are considered a bellwether pitch. In fact, the Dodgers’ four-seam spin rate is higher than that of any other team in the Statcast era. There is no proof the Dodgers are doctoring baseballs, but nearly across the board, their hurlers’ spin rates on that pitch have increased this season from last.

The Dodgers declined to comment.

That aggy pride comes shining through...  He's not in the top 25 in wins, ERA, WHIP, saves, or anything.  Not Top 25 in MLB, but Top 25 on his own fucking team.

Gerrit Cole with a dominant start tonight, spin rate right in line with his career average. That’ll offend some Astros fans.

What might shock you is that some of us actually wish him well, just not when he faces Houston.

The bad thing is that he might be your best bat now too.

Could not edit my statement.  Turns out ole Ross is 2-3 on the season  with a 4.71 ERA.   Keep being you, you aggy motherfucker.
