RandyMarsh Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Yet another reminder that you can never have too much pitching. I remember at the start of the season people including national outlets like Fangraphs talking about how much pitching depth we have with our slotted starting 5 along with Manning, SGL and possibly somebody like Madden from the minor leagues. Well here we are in July and out of the 8 or 9 guys mentioned only Flaherty and Skubal are left standing, the rest are either injured or completely ineffective.

RandyMarsh Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I have no idea why that triple posted but I guess it is so important it needed to be posted several times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you on iOS and you pressed Submit and you saw it didn't go through, then you pressed Submit again and saw it didn't go through again, then you pressed Submit a third time and it still didn't go through, so then you just refreshed the page?

On chrome but yeah that's exactly what happened. I've done it before though and I don't remember it doing that but I'll have to remember to keep this in mind if it happens again.

I haven't seen it happen on my laptop yet. But yeah it took me a couple times to get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Am I naive to hope that with him being out of sorts all game, rather than a sudden pop, the injury might be a little less serious? Somewhere between precautionary and catastrophic? Tigers' Reese Olson pulled from start after two innings with right shoulder soreness https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2024/07/20/tigers-reese-olson-pulled-from-start-after-two-innings-with-right-shoulder-soreness/74484066007/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Wow, so I had to go at the pitching change to do my dirty sinful business and I come back to having missed a grand slam?! Blurgh!! At least I saw Ibanez single Javy home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongLiveMaroth Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 If Reese is hurt for a long period you can kiss buying at the deadline goodbye. You'll end up trading Flaherty and move Maeda back to the rotation and bring up Hurter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Wow, the way Malloy showed up the home plate umpire by lurching toward first on that 3-and-0 that clipped the corner, he's lucky he got the call on that 3-and-1 that clipped the top of the zone.

We're not going to go off plan and empty the top of the farm system just to have a puncher's chance at a third wild card spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
