cmh6476 778 Posted May 15 BWJ is in a bit of a slump on this west coast trip. But anyone know what the criteria is for him to become the best shortstop ever over Honus Wagner. Just thinking ahead for ten years down the road here... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBayXXXVII 2,204 Posted May 17 Great day for Skenes, 6 no-hit innings with 11 K's and 1 BB. Ump blew a few, cost him at least 8 pitches and 2 K's (one was the walk). Up 8-0, Pirates in good position to get Skenes his first professional win. Side note, first time a Pirates pitcher struck out 11 in Wrigley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmh6476 778 Posted May 21 On 12/12/2023 at 6:20 PM, cmh6476 said: Right-hander Seth Lugo and the Kansas City Royals are in agreement on a three-year, $45. Jeff Passan - The Royals vowed to spend this winter, and Lugo gets one of the biggest free agent deals they've given to a pitcher. They've got plenty more to do to get competitive and should add at least one more starter in a market full of them. Lugi had a 3.57 ERA in 26 starts with 140 strikeouts in 146 1⁄3 innings for the Padres this year, his first season as a full-time starter since 2017. He went at least five innings in 22 of his 26 starts and averaged 5.6 innings-per start. Lugo is a strike-thrower. His 6 percent walk rate was the 19th-lowest among all pitchers with at least 100 innings. Lugo has a five-pitch mix with a fastball, curveball, sinker, slider, and change up. The sinker was his best pitch last year, with opponents hitting just .206 against it, and he netted a groundball rate of 45.2 percent. The Royals reportedly pursued Lugo last off-season before he signed a one-year, $7.5 million deal with the Padres. Someone else to draft in Homers! What a get Probably the AL CY to this point.

cmh6476 778 Posted May 23 Royals starters are currently #1 (Lugo), #11 (Singer), and #20 (Ragans) in the AL in ERA, and if Alec Marsh were eligible he'd be #12. And we have #1 (Ragans), #12 (Singer) and #17 (Lugo) in K's. Never would have imagined anything like that heading into the season. An OF who could hit, and another top-end reliever would put this team over the top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was because it was the first year they broke Royals hearts, even though they got blown out in the Series. I don’t think 77 and 78 were close enough for him even to get that upset lol.
